In a surprising turn of events, Buckingham Palace has issued a health update regarding Queen Camilla, just two weeks after she was unable to attend a significant event with Kate Middleton.
The news comes as royal fans are left disappointed at the prospect of not seeing the Queen consort today due to ongoing health concerns.
At 77 years old, Queen Camilla has been quite active recently.
She hosted a reception adorned in a striking headpiece, shared a heartfelt tribute to her beloved late dog, and even received a prestigious honour from her sister-in-law, Princess Anne.
However, it appears that despite her busy schedule, she now requires some much-needed rest, as advised by her doctors.
Hours before she was set to make an appearance at the Royal Variety Performance alongside King Charles, the Palace released a statement regarding her health.
Unfortunately, the Queen had to withdraw from this evening’s event, echoing a similar situation from two weeks ago when she missed Remembrance Day ceremonies due to health issues.
The official message from Buckingham Palace revealed that following a recent chest infection, Queen Camilla is still grappling with lingering post-viral symptoms.
Doctors have recommended that she take time to recuperate after a hectic week filled with engagements.
The Palace expressed regret over her absence from the Royal Variety Performance, but emphasized the importance of prioritizing her health.
This isn’t the first time royal watchers have been alerted to Queen Camilla’s health struggles.
Earlier this month, the Palace informed the public that she would not be attending Remembrance Day events for the same reason—a seasonal chest infection.
At that time, the Palace stressed the necessity of following medical advice for a full recovery and protecting others from any potential illness.
Despite missing tonight’s variety show, it’s worth noting that Queen Camilla has made several appearances this week.
Just two days ago, she was celebrated at a special ceremony held at Senate House in London, where she received an honorary Doctorate of Literature from Princess Anne.
This recognition highlights her contributions and dedication, sending positive vibes as she focuses on her recovery.
