Queen Camilla Addresses Health Concerns Following Doctor-Recommended Absence
Queen Camilla has made her return to royal duties after being advised by doctors to miss a significant event on the royal calendar due to health issues.
Following the palace’s announcement cancelling her engagements, Camilla reappeared on Tuesday at receptions held at Clarence House for The Booker Prize Foundation. During the event, she was seen conversing with guests and gave an update on her condition.
“I’m obviously getting much better, though there’s still a bit of coughing,” Camilla told the Daily Mail’s royal correspondent Rebecca English in a video shared on X. She expressed her disappointment at missing the Remembrance Sunday festival and the Cenotaph Parade, saying, “I really wanted to come.”
In another conversation with American author Percival Everett, also shared on X, Camilla commented, “I’m on the mend, but these things take time to fully clear up. You think it’s gone, but it just lingers.”
The update follows a statement from Buckingham Palace on Saturday, which confirmed that Camilla was dealing with a “seasonal chest infection” as advised by doctors, but was expected to resume her duties within a week.
