The Queen Consort, who canceled her participation in military ceremonies this weekend because of a lung infection, is resuming her engagements today.
Queen Camilla, the wife of Charles III, who had canceled engagements last week due to a lung infection, is resuming her activities this Tuesday, November 12 but with a reduced schedule, a royal source indicated.
Camilla, aged 77 and crowned in May 2023, is due to attend a reception in the afternoon with the finalists for the prestigious Booker Prize literary prize. But this fervent reader will be there for a shorter period than initially planned.
This will be Camilla’s first public outing since returning from Australia and the Samoa Islands two and a half weeks ago, where she visited with Charles III.
Absence from a preview
On Wednesday afternoon, she will participate in an event honoring the television and film industry, but again, she will not stay for the entire ceremony.
Camilla decided not to attend the premiere of Gladiator 2 in Leicester Square, where she was expected to meet actor Paul Mescal and director Ridley Scott.
Camilla also did not participate last weekend in the military commemorations planned in London. This included an event at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday evening and then a tribute ceremony on Sunday at Britain’s official war memorial, the Cenotaph.
Princess Kate, wife of Prince William, was present at the commemorations. She announced in September the end of her chemotherapy, paving the way for a gradual resumption of her public commitments after the announcement of her cancer last March.
