The royal family will celebrate Remembrance Day on Saturday, November 9, and Sunday, September 10, without Queen Camilla has she recover from a chest infection
Many British royals including Camilla’s husband, King Charles III, and his son Prince William will attend the Festival of Remembrance at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Saturday, November 9. They are expected to be joined by William’s wife, Princess Kate Middleton, in a rare appearance since she finished chemotherapy treatment following a battle with an undisclosed form of cancer.
A spokesperson for Buckingham Palace, however, confirmed earlier on Saturday that Camilla, 77, will be absent from the various events, issuing a statement to multiple outlets, ' following doctors' guidance to ensure a full recovery from a seasonal chest infection and to protect others from any potential risk. While this is a source of great disappointment to the Queen, she will mark the occasion privately at home and hopes to return to public duties early next week.
Remembrance is celebrated each November in the U.K. to remember military veterans who served the Commonwealth. To show their support, many residents wear poppy pins on the lapels. Camilla, Kate, 42, and other members of the royal family commonly partake in the sartorial tradition.
