Queen Consort Camilla has been nursing a broken toe while carrying out ceremonial duties following the death of Queen Elizabeth.
It is believed Camilla – who retreated to her home in Wiltshire for a day of reflection on Thursday – sustained the injury before Elizabeth’s death but insisted on continuing with her duties.Advertisement 3We apologize, but this video has failed to load.The queen consort was by Charles’ side last Friday when they met members of the public outside Buckingham Palace before he recorded his first address to the nation in his new role as king.
The following day, she spent an hour on her feet at the Accession Council ceremony at London’s St James’ Palace before flying to Scotland on Monday for a service and vigil at Edinburgh’s St. Giles’ Cathedral. Charles and Camilla were in Northern Ireland on Tuesday to meet officials and members of the public, and on Wednesday they returned to London for the procession accompanying the queen’s coffin from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall, though the queen consort travelled by car with female members of the Royal Family.
Thursday was a day off for the couple, but on Friday, they will return to official duties with a trip to Wales.
