Queen Camilla has supported King Charles as he receives cancer treatment

Former Royal Correspondent Charles Rae has heaped praise on Queen Camilla as she continues to support King Charles while he receives cancer treatment.

Camilla recently represented the Royal Family alone as she attended an Easter service at Worcester Cathedral.


Speaking to GBN America, Rae highlighted how Queen Camilla has supported the King and the Princess of Wales as they face health troubles, calling her a "remarkable asset" to the monarchy.

Host Nana Akua noted that previously, Queen Camilla had been "hated by everybody", following the death of Princess Diana in 1997.

Rae agreed and said the Queen has "proven herself" in recent years, particularly since King Charles ascended to the throne in 2022, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

He added that Camilla is "one of the best things to happen to the Royal Family" in a "good number of years".

Rae told GBN America: "There's no question about it, she stepped into the breach. She's got everything on her shoulders with what's going on, and she's taking on even more work.

"Everywhere she goes, she has got a cheery smile on and a happy face. She says the right things."

Rae noted that as the King and Princess receive treatment for their cancer diagnoses, they are both "battling away and doing well".

Rae claimed: "Catherine appreciates all the messages that have come out in support."

In praise of Camilla, Rae said: "She has proved to be a remarkable asset to the Royal Family, given the allegations that at one time she had bread rolls thrown at her in a supermarket car park.

"I remember her when she was the most hated woman in Britain. I've met her several times and she's charming, she's witty, she's really nice to chat to, and certainly when she's chatting to people, she has done her homework as to who she's chatting to."

Rae added that he finds Queen Camilla's royal journey "inspiring", and has spent most of his time "chasing her around in the background of royal events".

Sharing his thoughts on King Charles's health as he continues his cancer treatment, Rae revealed that the monarch looked "absolutely fine" at his most recent public appearance in Windsor, for the Easter Sunday service at St. George's Chapel.

Rae said: "He's still got his sense of humour. He even at one stage was ticking off the Queen, because she seemed to be taking a little bit longer talking to the people.

"He was desperate to be there because it's a very important event in the royal calendar. And I think he wanted to ensure that as many people could see him and get close to him as possible, to show that he is on the road to recovery."
