Queen Camilla, the wife of Britain's head of state King Charles III, will miss two of the most important dates in the royal calendar this weekend because of a chest infection, Buckingham Palace said yesterday.
The 77-year-old will skip Saturday evening's Festival of Remembrance commemorative concert and Sunday's ceremony at the Cenotaph war memorial, events that honour Britain's war dead.
"Following doctors' guidance to ensure a full recovery from a seasonal chest infection, and to protect others from any potential risk, Her Majesty will not attend this weekend's Remembrance events," a palace spokesperson said.
"While this is a source of great disappointment to The Queen, she will mark the occasion privately at home and hopes to return to public duties early next week."
British media reported that there had been no downturn in Camilla's condition, and that she was mindful of minimising the risk of passing any lingering infection to others.
