Queen Camilla is reportedly leaving the UK for a holiday after picking up 13 extra engagements on top of her own to help her husband King Charles, who is suffering from cancer.

The future king, who returned to royal duties from break owing to his ailing wife Kate Middleton, is expected to step up in Camilla’s absence and lead the Royal Family alongside the King's sister Princess Anne.

Queen Camilla will be back in action on March 11 to represent King Charles at the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, according to The Times, per GB News.

The insider told the publication, "Although she was not expecting to find herself in the position of leading the family, the Queen is absolutely prepared to do whatever needs to be done for the institution.

"She has been buoyed by the public's reaction.”

Another royal source said: "Her Majesty is robust, positive and determined to keep going while the King is off public duties.

"The King is proud and pleased to see the show is being kept on the road by the Queen and the wider family."
