In recent weeks, the Queen Consort has supported all royal engagements alone, making amends for the recovery of her husband, King Charles III, who is being treated for cancer. After many official appointments in a row, she was described by palace sources as “exhausted”. So she took a week off. The royal family's obligations thus fall into the hands of Princess Anne and William, whose wife Kate is still recovering from abdominal surgery

Thirteen official appointments in a row proved too much for Queen Camilla, who was described by palace sources as “exhausted”. So she took a week's vacation, after several weeks of fulfilling all royal duties alone, to accommodate the recovery of her husband, King Charles III, who was being treated for cancer. The British press notes that the 76-year-old queen consort attended all events alone or as head of the family, including leading the British royal family to the funeral of King Constantine of Greece, the godfather of Charles, who died in January. of which the heir to the throne, Wilhelm, also died at the last minute for unspecified “personal” reasons.
Camilla in peace
Now Camilla's agenda, the opposition to which seemed to worry observers and the media, is clear, at least until Commonwealth Day, celebrated on March 11. Well-informed sources at the Chron have suggested that it was most likely the ruler himself who insisted that his wife take a few days off. “Although she did not expect to find herself in the position of leader of the family,” writes the Times on Sunday, “the Queen is fully prepared to do whatever is necessary for the institution” she represents, i.e. the monarchy. The royal family's obligations therefore fall into the hands of Princess Anne, second daughter of the late Elizabeth II, who followed the events of the crown impeccably for decades, and William, whose wife is still recovering from abdominal surgery.

Kate's condition
What worries and fascinates the subjects and others is precisely the state of health of Katherine, about whose character there are more and more conspiracy theories, considering that the Princess of Wales has not been seen in public since Christmas after the operation. William and Kate and their team at Kensington Palace are sticking to the line they expressed in January: The Princess will not return to public appearances until after Easter. The rumors and rumors then gained momentum after Charles and Diana's son decided not to attend a memorial service in Windsor last Tuesday for unknown personal reasons, despite the palace insisting that the princess is recovering well. But the prince's decision and lack of explanation have shown how risky their strategy of silence is: an information gap quickly filled by speculation and conspiracies that have echoed on social media all week.
BBC: “Thick fog of uncertainty”
According to the palace's former communications minister, Ailsa Anderson, the insatiable appetite for news about the princess is nothing new. She recalls receiving dozens of calls when Prince Philip attended an engagement with a band-aid on his hand. In an editorial, the BBC spoke of a thick fog of uncertainty surrounding the royals, which only raises more questions. The British broadcaster, always attentive to the affairs of the Crown, stresses that while the secrecy that surrounds the gilded world of a modern monarchy serves to fuel the mystery necessary to maintain an aura of royalty and mysticism, but at the same time runs the risk of becoming true, interpreted as a real concealment of reality.
