The Prime Minister meets with the Queen every Wednesday to update her on the latest developments. But this week’s meeting is seen as of particular importance as the government faces challenges after Mr Johnson received multiple calls for his resignation.
The monarch was spotted on her way back to Windsor in the morning as her government faces a massive crisis.
She traveled from Wood Farm, a five-bedroom cottage on the Sandringham estate, back to Windsor Castle and appeared to be in good health.
A total of 42 MPs have resigned from government since Tuesday evening, protesting Boris Johnson’s behavior and standards.
Home Secretary Priti Patel, Home Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps, Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis and Wales Secretary Simon Hart were among the cabinet ministers who said Johnson would resign .
However, Boris Johnson has so far rejected calls from cabinet colleagues to quit, insisting instead on fighting for his political future.
In a latest development, Boris Johnson dramatically fired cabinet rival Michael Gove before calling him a “snake” in a No10 statement.
Royal reporter Cameron Walker confirmed in a Twitter update that the Prime Minister’s weekly meeting with the Queen will continue.
He wrote: “The Queen is expected to hold her weekly audience with the Prime Minister tonight by telephone.”
The Queen meets weekly with all Prime Ministers since she became Queen in 1952.
