The Duchess of Cornwall is self-isolating after testing positive for COVID-19, Clarence House has confirmed.
Her husband, the Prince of Wales, cancelled an event after testing positive for the virus on Thursday.
Camilla carried out a string of engagements the same day after testing negative herself.
A Clarence House spokesman said, “We continue to follow government guidelines.”
It is the first time the duchess has caught coronavirus, while Prince Charles has the virus for a second time.
The heir to the throne met the Queen two days before testing positive for the virus but a royal source said on Thursday that the monarch had shown no symptoms.
Camilla’s positive test comes a week after the Queen said she wanted the Duchess of Cornwall to be known as Queen Consort once Prince Charles had become king.
