March 3rd 2024.
At the age of 76, the Queen has decided to take a well-deserved break from her official duties. According to reports, Queen Camilla will be jetting off overseas tomorrow for a sunny vacation. As the most senior royal, she has been diligently carrying out engagements amidst the absence of King Charles and Kate, who have both been dealing with medical issues.
However, the Queen will be taking a week off from work, as she embarks on a private flight for her holiday, as reported by The Sun. This has raised questions about who will be in charge during this crucial time when many key members of the royal family are unable to fulfill their duties. Even Prince William, the heir to the throne, had to cancel a major engagement last week for personal reasons that were not disclosed.
Since last month, Camilla has carried out 13 official engagements, often attending events on her own when she would usually have her husband by her side. She was hailed as the monarchy's "savior" for keeping "the show on the road" in the absence of King Charles. One of her notable tasks was leading the royal family at a memorial for the late King Constantine of Greece at Windsor Castle. She also hosted a reception for hundreds of guests immediately after the event. Additionally, she recently welcomed the wife of the Ukrainian president at her London residence to mark the second anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Royal expert Ingrid Seward believes that King Charles would have insisted on his wife taking a break after such a busy schedule. She also noted that Camilla must be under a lot of stress due to the health scares in the family. "He will see that she is exhausted after recent months," she said, adding that the holiday is a positive indication that the King is doing well after starting treatment for cancer. On the other hand, Kate Middleton, who has been recovering from abdominal surgery, is doing well, according to Kensington Palace.
The Queen is expected to return to work on March 11, where she will stand in for the King at the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey. In her absence, other royals such as Prince William, Princess Anne, and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh will be fulfilling public engagements. As for the King, he is still in London but is taking time off to recover from his surgery. He was diagnosed with cancer last month, causing concern among the public.
Meanwhile, Princess Kate, who has not been seen in public since Christmas Day, is still recovering from surgery. As rumors circulated online about her health, her office released an update last week stating that they would only be providing significant updates in accordance with the timeline of her recovery. They reassured the public that she continues to do well in her recovery.
