Queen Camilla's Emotional Revelation About King Charles' Cancer: 'I Was Just Longing to Let it Out'

from The Royal Tea

Queen Camilla has spoken publicly for the first time about the emotional toll of King Charles' cancer diagnosis. Speaking to Dame Laura Lee DBE in a video to mark 30 years of Maggie’s cancer support centre, the Queen said that she found it "quite difficult" to not tell anyone about the King's diagnosis while visiting the centre in 2024 before it was public knowledge. She told Dame Laure that she "was just longing to let it out but obviously I couldn’t".On this episode of The Royal Tea, David Bull was joined by journalist Linda Duberley to discuss the revelation. Plus, they get into the news Earl Spencer will publish a memoir about his sister, Princess Diana. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
