Britain's Queen Camilla made a return to her royal duties on Tuesday, following a bout with a chest infection that had sidelined her for several days. The 77-year-old monarch, who had to cancel multiple engagements including last weekend's Remembrance Sunday event, was seen hosting a reception at her Clarence House residence for authors shortlisted for the prestigious Booker Prize.
"I’m on the mend, these things always take a bit of time to get rid of," Queen Camilla remarked to author Percival Everett during the event. "You think you’ve got rid of it, then they just sort of hang on for a little bit, but hopefully I’m on the mend now."
In light of her ongoing recovery, Queen Camilla's schedule has been scaled back this week, and she will not be attending the London premiere of 'Gladiator II' on Wednesday. A royal source confirmed that she had been dealing with a severe illness but assured there were no significant health concerns. Meanwhile, her husband, King Charles, who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer diagnosed earlier this year, will continue to attend all scheduled events this week.
