After the two cancer diagnoses suffered by Kate Middleton and King Charles III at the start of the year, each information concerning the state of health of a member of the royal family makes us fear the worst. And this Tuesday, November 5, it is Camilla Parker Bowles who is concerned.
As revealed by several British media including The Sun, Camilla Parker Bowles is “currently ill”. Ten days after her return from the tour of Australia and the Samoa Islands that she undertook with her husband, Camilla Parker Bowles would have contracted a chest infection. She has since been monitored by doctors who remain adamant: Camilla must rest and stay at home to heal as quickly as possible.
No other information concerning the illness which is gnawing at her has been given but at 77 years old, it is quite normal not to recover as quickly and well as before. If fans of the royals will therefore have to be patient before seeing her back in the spotlight, it is difficult not to worry after the past year has been very trying from a medical point of view for the British monarchy .
Camilla Parker Bowles forced to cancel engagements
As a monarch, Camilla Parker Bowles has quite a busy schedule. She had notably planned this week to attend the commemoration of Remembrance Day, the date of the signing of the 1918 armistice ending the First World War. Meeting in which she will therefore not be able to participate. Another event at which she will not be able to attend: the mass given in honor of this symbolic event this Sunday.
If this withdrawal of a few days may be worrying, a palace spokesperson wanted to be reassuring: “Her Majesty The Queen is currently ill with a chest infection for which her doctors have advised her to take a short period of rest. She had to withdraw from her commitments for this week but very much hopes to be back on her feet to attend this weekend's events.” God save… the queen.
