Queen Camilla has been forced to take a step back from royal duties for the time being amid a chest infection.
Doctors have said Her Majesty needs to get some rest, and as such, she's withdrawn from the Field of Remembrance events at Westminster Abbey on Thursday (November 7).
She was also due to, with her husband King Charles, host Olympic and Paralympic athletes at Buckingham Palace that same evening, but now the Duchess of Gloucester has stepped in to take her place.
A Buckingham Palace 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.”
