Queen Camilla struggles as King Charles' health battle takes emotional toll

Queen Camilla is said to be finding it increasingly difficult to cope as King Charles battle with cancer continues.

According to a royal insider, the Queen Consort remains composed in public but she is deeply affected by the uncertainty surrounding the monarch’s health.

A source told Radar Online that Camilla cannot bear the thought of losing Charles to cancer as his treatment entered second year.

Camilla is “distracted by his illness and overwhelmed by the thought of losing him,” the insider said.

Meanwhile, Charles is continuing his royal duties with determination as he is focused on managing his illness and living life as normally as possible.

Despite his age, Charles is said to be handling the situation well as he shows strength and dedication to his role.

Speaking withThe Express, a source revealed, “The thing you learn about this illness [cancer] is that you just manage it.”

“And that’s what he does. As long as you just do what the doctors say, just live your life as normal as possible, and that’s exactly what he is doing,” they added.

The insider further shared that Charles was “dealing with it all incredibly well. He’s incredibly fit [and] driven by duty.”

“We’re just planning the programme as usual, trying to lighten it a little bit – [after all] he is 76 years old. No one has had much success, however!”
