Brave Queen Camilla breaks cover after sharing devastating diagnosis
After weeks of suffering from a chest infection Queen Camilla and missing a handful of engagements, Queen Camilla has shared her shock diagnosis.
The news broke after it emerged that Camilla would only be involved in the indoor parts of today’s state visit of Qatar’s Emir and his wife. And she has since told guests that her chest infection was actually pneumonia.
Camilla is suffering from post-viral fatigue and is missing the outdoor elements after being urged by her doctors to take more time to recover. The Queen was not taken to hospital, but is now facing bouts of extreme tiredness.
It is understood Camilla’s condition was viral, not bacterial, and she no longer has pneumonia.
The Queen missed the outdoor ceremonial welcome on a chilly Horse Guards Parade on Tuesday.
The news comes a day after the Palace confirmed Camilla would miss the ceremonial welcome during the Qatari state visit after suffering significantly diminished reserves of energy following her chest infection.
