Queen Camilla Overwhelmed by Well-Wishes and Prayers for Ailing Royals
During her momentous appearance at the Royal Maundy Service on Thursday, Queen Camilla was visibly moved by the outpouring of support and heartfelt messages she received for King Charles III and Princess Kate, both battling cancer.
The 76-year-old Queen was showered with goodwill messages for both the monarch and the Princess of Wales following the service at Worcester Cathedral. There, she bestowed Maundy money upon community heroes in recognition of their exceptional service.
Attendees presented Queen Camilla with cards and floral tributes intended for her daughter-in-law, while others conveyed their thoughts and prayers during her brief interaction with well-wishers.
Bishop of Worcester Dr. John Inge, serving as Lord High Almoner for the event, paid tribute to King Charles III during the "Blessing" and urged Queen Camilla to "please convey to him our affection and admiration."
Both King Charles III and Kate Middleton, absent from the service due to ongoing cancer treatments, were the recipients of touching messages from their devoted supporters.
In a prerecorded audio message played during the service, the 75-year-old King reaffirmed his commitment to his coronation vow, stating, "I am here to serve, not to be served," pledging his unwavering dedication to his role with "utter sincerity."
