In the United Kingdom, Queen Camilla has found herself on the front line for several weeks, despite herself, and must carry out the official functions of the royal family, due to the forced withdrawal of King Charles III and Princess Kate, both suffering from ‘cancer.
Queen Camilla was alone for the Maundy Thursday mass, which marked the start of the religious Easter festivities on March 28. On her shoulders weighs the weight of the monarchy, since she represents her husband, King Charles III. Visibly weakened in a photograph published the same day, the monarch deplored his absence at the event. “It is a great sadness for me not to be with you”he said in an audio message.
“She does a very good job”
Since the announcement of Charles III’s cancer and his withdrawal from public commitments, Queen Camilla has been on the front line. She continues the visits, the crowds, the handshakes, and the British are grateful to her. “She does a very good job”, confides a passerby. Charles III should still attend Easter mass on Sunday March 31 in Windsor (England) alongside other members of the family. The Prince and Princess of Wales will not be present.
