Queen Camilla Cancels Scheduled Engagement
5th November 2024
The Duchess of Gloucester will represent the Queen, Patron of The Poppy Factory, at the Field of Remembrance on Thursday, 7th November. The annual commemoration at Westminster Abbey is now in its 96th year.
Queen Camilla has pulled out of a number of scheduled engagements this week due a chest infection, says Buckingham Palace.
The statement from the Palace says: “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.”
