Queen Camilla skips key royal weekend events due to health reasons

Queen Camilla wont take part in Britainʼs memorial weekend due to her current health state - doctors diagnosed her with a chest infection. The 77-year-old royal spouse had to skip two key-events: the Festival of Remembrance at Royal Albert Hall (which happens on saturday night) and the Cenotaph ceremony next day

The royal family traditionally gathers at these well-known locations to pay respect to fallen soldiers and other service-members. These memorial gatherings are some of the most significant dates in Britainʼs royal calendar - making Queen Camillaʼs absence quite notable. Buckingham Palace made this last-minute announcement about her non-attendance (which shows how important these events are for the monarchy)

The ceremonies bring together top-ranking royals‚ government officials and military representatives to honor those who gave their lives in service. King Charles III will lead both events without his wife by his side‚ while she focuses on getting better at home
