It seems as though Buckingham Palace is making sure Queen Camilla doesn’t overdo it.
As King Charles continues to battle cancer and Princess Catharine continues to heal post abdomen surgery, Queen Camilla and Prince William have been taking on extra duties as the top working members of the Royal family. Now, new reports are alleging that the Queen is going to take some time off.
For the next 10 days, Queen Camilla and King Charles will spend some quality time together while Camilla takes a break from royal duties. According to reports, Camilla will step away from the public eye until Commonwealth Day on March 11.
The Queen is expected to make a solo appearance at the celebration, following her break.
Sources told People that the Queen usually takes a break this time of year, adding this time is no different, and it is not connected to King Charles’ cancer battle.
While meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, King Charles admits he’s been reduced to tears as he battles cancer.
“Wonderful to see you looking so well,” Sunak told the King, according to the BBC. “It’s all done by mirrors,” Charles joked, before adding how much he appreciates all the well-wishes.
“I’ve had so many wonderful messages and cards, it’s reduced me to tears most of the time.”

This isn’t, however, the first time since being diagnosed with cancer, King Charles is sharing his own personal statement with the world.
“I would like to express my most heartfelt thanks for the many messages of support and good wishes I have received in recent days,” the King wrote in the statement shared on the Royal family’s website. “As all those who have been affected by cancer will know, such kind thoughts are the greatest comfort and encouragement.”
“It is equally heartening to hear how sharing my own diagnosis has helped promote public understanding and shine a light on the work of all those organisations which support cancer patients and their families across the U.K. and wider world. My lifelong admiration for their tireless care and dedication is all the greater as a result of my own personal experience.”
Prince Harry and King Charles are reportedly putting their differences aside as Charles takes on the health battle ahead.

Reports revealed that Harry returned to England from California to see his father after learning about his cancer diagnosis. The same day Prince Harry arrived to see his father, video showed King Charles reported being transported by helicopter from Buckingham Palace.
According to the Daily Mail, Charles will continue fighting his battle “away from prying eyes” in Sandringham.

Seven days after undergoing surgery on his prostate, Buckingham Palace has shared heartbreaking information.
During the procedure, doctors discovered that King Charles has cancer.
“During The King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted,” according to the emailed statement. “Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,” NBC News reports. Considering the wording of the statement, it’s unclear if King Charles has prostate cancer or a different form.
“His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties. Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual. The King is grateful to his medical team for their swift intervention, which was made possible thanks to his recent hospital procedure. He remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible. His Majesty has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer.”
