JAKARTA - Queen Elizabeth II attended her royal double christening at Windsor Castle, days after returning to public duties after a month-long break on the advice of doctors.

The hosts of the event were Princess Eugenie and Princess Zara Tindall, who held a christening with their sons at Royal Lodge, Windsor on Sunday, citing the BBC 22 November.

Personal service, the activity is only attended by close friends and outgoing members. It comes a week after Queen Elizabeth II was unable to attend Remembrance Sunday at the Cenotaph after spraining her back.

Eugenie, daughter of Queen Elizabeth II's third child Duke of York Prince Andrew, was seen arriving at the royal residence in Windsor just before 4 pm GMT with her husband Jack Brooksbank.

Eugenie's son, August, was baptized with Lucas Philip, son of Zara Tindall, daughter of the Queen's second child, Princess Anne. Prince Andrew along with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge reportedly attended the event.

Queen Elizabeth II, 95, returned to public duty on Wednesday last week, when she was pictured holding an audience with the UK's Chief of Defense Staff General Sir Nick Carter at Windsor Castle.

The queen has not made a public appearance for nearly a month, after being advised by doctors to rest and spending the night in hospital on October 20 for a check-up.

However, the Queen did some light errands during that time, including meeting the ambassador via a video link from Windsor Castle.

Buckingham Palace said the Queen intended to attend the Remembrance Sunday service or memorial for war veterans at the Cenotaph last week, observing the annual memorial from the balcony, but on Sunday morning the Queen made the decision to skip the event "with great regret".

As in previous years, a wreath was placed on the Cenotaph in the Queen's name by the Prince of Wales. The back sprain that prevented her from participating in the activity is believed to be unrelated to her doctor's advice to rest.
