London, Dec 4 (UNI) Queen Camilla made a radiant appearance at a state banquet in Buckingham Palace in honour of the Amir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, marking her return to official duties after a recent illness, according to People magazine.
Last month, Buckingham Palace said Queen Camilla cancelled multiple events due to a chest infection, including Remembrance events. It is understood that she is recovering well, but continues experiencing episodic symptoms of post-viral fatigue from the chest infection. She told guests at the palace Tuesday that the recent infection was a form of pneumonia.
Camilla, 77, dazzled in a red velvet evening gown by Fiona Clare and adorned the diamond Kokoshnik tiara, a striking accessory once owned by Queen Elizabeth II. Despite her recent health struggles, she appeared composed and poised, welcoming the Amir and his wife Sheikha Jawaher bint Hamad bin Suhaim Al Thani, to the U.K.
