If you thought the only drama in the royal family came from feuds and family group chats, think again. Amid King Charles’ cancer diagnosis and Princess Kate’s long-awaited public return post-treatment, there’s now growing concern for another senior royal: Queen Camilla.
According to RadarOnline, Camilla’s health is allegedly “rapidly declining”—with sources claiming she’s “on her last legs… literally.” From foot deformities to rumored surgeries, the Queen Consort may be dealing with more than the public has been led to believe.
Over the past few years, royal watchers have swapped tiaras for thermometers. First came King Charles’ unexpected cancer announcement, followed by months of speculation about Kate Middleton’s vanishing act, only to reveal she was battling cancer herself. The Palace kept both cases incredibly private—fueling a public appetite for information, conspiracy theories, and concern in equal measure.
Now, Queen Camilla is reportedly the latest royal to face health challenges that the Palace may be trying to downplay.
What We’re Hearing About Queen Camilla
A source reportedly close to the royal inner circle says Queen Camilla is struggling to walk unaided and is battling a string of health issues, including bunions severe enough to require custom-made orthopedic shoes from a London brand, Sole Bliss. These shoes are said to be hand-tooled to conceal growths on her feet, and she allegedly has them delivered to the palace “by the truckload.”
The same source added that despite advice to consider a wheelchair, Camilla is resisting—possibly out of pride. “She’s too vain to admit she needs a wheelchair,” they claimed. “Her spending on medics and specialists is through the roof.”
That’s not all. Camilla reportedly had liver surgery in the past—blamed on “decades of drinking”—and has also recently suffered from pneumonia. With Charles battling cancer, the Queen’s current health strain is being compounded by the emotional toll of supporting her husband during treatment.
What’s Really Going On Behind the Palace Gates?
While none of this has been officially confirmed by Buckingham Palace, the narrative aligns with the recent royal trend of tight-lipped health management—releasing information only when absolutely necessary.
And it’s not just Camilla under the microscope. Royal correspondent Camilla Tominey recently revealed that King Charles’ cancer is reportedly incurable, though manageable. There are “tentative” plans in place for his 80th birthday celebration in 2028, but some insiders suggest that he may live “with” cancer rather than die “of” it.
Interestingly, health may be the bridge to healing old wounds. Talks of a public reunion between King Charles and Prince Harry at the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham are already circulating. Sources say Harry hopes to reconcile with his father “while there’s still time.” And while the logistics—and the drama—remain unclear, there’s growing awareness that the royal rift can’t drag on forever, especially under the weight of fragile health and public scrutiny.
Fragile, For Now
So where does this leave Queen Camilla? If the rumors are true, her health may be more delicate than anyone’s letting on—and if we’ve learned anything from recent Palace PR, it’s that silence often means something is going on behind the scenes.
Between quiet treatments, carefully worded statements, and a fiercely controlled public image, it’s clear that the British Royal Family is navigating a difficult era—one where crowns and titles come with more IV drips than glittering galas.
Stay tuned. Because if the Palace won’t talk, you know the internet absolutely will.
