Queen Camilla has gone to hospital with her husband King Charles this morning, in what has been dubbed a “very unusual” move.
When members of the Royal Family undergo hospital treatment, it is not common for their spouses to accompany them. Instead, they usually head in for the procedure alone.
ITV’s Royal Editor Chris Ship noted the change in precedent, writing on X: “Queen Camilla has gone into the hospital with King Charles. Whilst this might seem normal for most families, it is very unusual for the Royal Family to accompany their spouse like this (the late Queen and Prince Philip always went into hospital on their own.)”
It is another example of how the King is adopting a modern approach to health complaints, first by going into detail about his surgery and now by having his wife’s support throughout his treatment.
