Queen Camilla has put her public duties on hold, following medical advice. The 77-year-old has a chest infection and needs some rest, Buckingham Palace said. This comes after a challenging year for the royal family, with both King Charles III and Princess Kate battling cancer.

The queen is currently at home, missing a remembrance event planned for Thursday. However, she's hoping to bounce back in time for the Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph in London. Her doctor advised a short break to recover properly.

It's been a tough year for the royals. King Charles III had to scale back his public appearances when he was diagnosed with cancer in February. Princess Kate, despite finishing her chemotherapy, is still not back to her normal schedule. It shows that even royals have health issues that need attention.

Queen Camilla recently wrapped up a significant tour of Australia. Although it had its ups and downs, like a protest in the Australian Parliament, it also saw huge crowds at the Sydney Opera House.

Even amidst all this, Queen Camilla has been a pillar of support. When King Charles and Princess Kate were unwell, she stepped up, handling many royal duties. Her dedication to raising awareness about domestic abuse was also highlighted in a recent ITV documentary.

Her efforts to end domestic abuse reflect her long-term commitment. She believes that while progress has been made, there's still a long way to go. Coercive control, she says, is one of the most frightening aspects of domestic abuse.
