Queen Camilla recovers from acute sinusitis before attending Trump's UK visit.
Queen Camilla has recovered from acute sinusitis. She rested at Windsor Castle on Tuesday after missing the Duchess of Kent’s funeral. It was confirmed on Wednesday that she would attend US President Donald Trump’s state visit in full as planned.
Camilla had hoped to recover in time to participate in all royal events during the American leader’s trip, including the grand state banquet. The royal family's soft power diplomacy plays a crucial role in the success of the US state visit, given Trump's admiration for the monarchy.
Trump expressed his friendship with Prince Charles and Camilla, stating it was an honor to be with them. The Queen, 78, had previously missed an event due to pneumonia in December 2024 but later attended other functions during the Emir of Qatar's visit.
