British royal family news reveals that Queen Camilla is the latest royal to be sidelined by illness. Buckingham Palace has announced that the queen will not attend this weekend’s Remembrance events due to a chest infection.
A Buckingham Palace statement said that Queen Camilla is “following doctors’ guidance to ensure a full recovery from a seasonal chest infection, and to protect others from any potential risk.”
Queen Camilla Ill With Chest Infection
There is no doubt that 2024 has been a horribilis annus for the monarchy, with both King Charles and Princess Catherine diagnosed with cancer, and Princess Anne suffering a concussion after an accident on her estate.
Queen Camilla is the latest royal to be beset by illness. Instead of attending Remembrance events this year, the 77-year old is expected to “mark the occasion privately at home and hopes to return to public duties early next week.”
One day before the news of Camilla’s illness broke, it was announced that Catherine, the Princess of Wales would attend Remembrance events in London this weekend.
Friday’s announcement is the latest indicator that Kate Middleton is making steady progress following completion of her preventative chemotherapy treatment this summer.

On Sunday King Charles, who is still undergoing cancer treatment, will lay a wreath at the memorial in Whitehall on behalf of the nation.
