Buckingham Palace announced the news

Queen Camilla has pulled out of royal engagements this week due to health concerns as reported by Sky News.

The Queen consort and her husband King Charles had recently been on a royal tour to the Pacific, visiting Australia, Samoa and other commonwealth territories in the region.

In doing so the King becomes the first reigning monarch to visit a Commonwealth nation in over a decade.

Now, it has been reported that 77-year-old Queen Camilla has withdrawn from her engagements this week due to a chest infection as announced by Buckingham Palace.

Two weeks ago the royal couple embarked on a six-day tour of Australia, the first major escapade for the King since his cancer diagnosis.

Updates to follow.
