Camilla’s Health Struggles: King Charles Celebrates His Birthday Alone
Queen Camilla has been bedridden for several days, and she may even miss King Charles’s birthday due to a respiratory infection.
London – Queen Camilla (77) is renowned for never canceling a royal engagement. However, recently, the wife of King Charles (75) has been struggling with her health. A respiratory infection has forced her to miss important events, including the Memorial Day service at Royal Albert Hall and the highly anticipated movie premiere.
It remains unclear how long Camilla will be confined to bed, but just days ago, a palace spokesperson shared that the Queen, ever dedicated, hopes to return to her duties as soon as possible. Initially, it was expected that Camilla would attend the Memorial Day events over the weekend, but in the end, the ailing Queen had to stay home, with Princess Kate (42) attending in her place. This raises questions about whether Camilla will be able to join her husband for his upcoming birthday celebrations. King Charles will turn 76 on Thursday (November 14).
Good or bad, King Charles had to spend the first hours of his special day without his beloved Camilla. The monarch attended the premiere of Ridley Scott’s blockbuster film Gladiator II on Wednesday evening (November 13). It’s likely that Charles marked his birthday there with some world-renowned stars over a glass of champagne.
Reports suggest that King Charles will celebrate his “real” birthday at a commemoration event for the one-year anniversary of his “Crowning Food Project,” a charity he founded in 2023 to promote sustainable food production and fight food waste. It’s very likely that Camilla won’t be able to join her family for this event and will instead stay home to celebrate her son’s birthday.
