Queen Camilla is reportedly anxious about King Charles’ health after he made an emotional comment during their recent trip to Samoa. Addressing a crowd, Charles said he hoped “to survive long enough to come back,” a remark that touched Camilla deeply, according to sources. Friends close to the couple noted that Camilla, who has been by his side through a challenging year, is urging him to prioritize his health amid his rigorous schedule.
Charles, who paused his treatment to undertake a nine-day tour of Australia and Samoa, followed a carefully balanced itinerary, with no evening engagements to conserve his energy. Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams observed, “This was a carefully managed tour by his team, with Charles taking needed rest to balance his health and official duties.” The King’s return to international tours, his first since his cancer diagnosis, was viewed as both a personal victory and a testament to his resilience.
Looking ahead, Charles has plans for more official tours in 2025, contingent on his doctor’s guidance. Fitzwilliams emphasized the importance of Camilla’s support, noting that the couple’s shared values and humor have strengthened their bond. “In a crisis, she’s been invaluable to him,” he shared, adding that her presence has been a vital source of comfort as Charles continues his health journey.
