Queen Camilla has pulled out of engagements this week after falling ill with a chest infection

It's hoped that she will be recovered in time to attend the events planned for Remembrance Sunday (10.11.24).

A spokesperson said: "Her Majesty The Queen is currently unwell with a chest infection, for which her doctors have advised a short period of rest.

"With great regret, Her Majesty has therefore had to withdraw from her engagements for this week, but she very much hopes to be recovered in time to attend this weekend's Remembrance events as normal.

"She apologises to all those who may be inconvenienced or disappointed as a result."

Camila and King Charles, 76, just completed a nine-day tour of Australia and Samoa.

Camila being struck down with a chest infection comes as the king continues to battle an undisclosed form of cancer.

Her son, Tom Parker Bowles, recently admitted it's been a "very worrying" time for the monarch and the rest of the royal family since he was diagnosed with the "terrifying disease" in January, but he's doing all he can and following doctors' advice.

Speaking to PEOPLE magazine, the writer said: "The King is strong. He is doing what he can. He's following the advice of his doctors. Fingers crossed, touch wood.

"It's a terrifying disease, and when someone close to you gets it in whatever capacity, it's a very worrying thing."

Tom is "incredibly proud" of his mother for how "strong" she has been for her husband.

He continued: "But my mother is strong as well. She supports him in every way. I think it's wonderful to have someone you love by your side.

"I'm incredibly proud of her. She's at an age when most people think of retiring, but she never complains; she just gets on with it."
