Queen Camilla reports illness hours before Trump's U.K. visit

Queen Camilla’s planned visit with President Trump and the first lady could be hampered by illness, which she reported just hours before the Americans touched down in England.

The queen, who was scheduled to appear on Tuesday at the funeral for the Duchess of Kent, withdrew at the last minute due to “acute sinusitis” — right around at the same time Air Force One was preparing to cross the Atlantic Ocean.

Buckingham Palace officials weren’t certain her virus would impact the president’s visit, only saying Camilla “hopes” to be present for all scheduled events.

The sudden sickness sparked speculation online that Camilla could be trying to avoid the visit, though a source close to the queen assured the Daily Beast there’s “no way” she would dodge the Trumps and leave King Charles in the lurch.

Trump touched down in London Tuesday night and said he was looking forward to meeting with the king on Wednesday. His schedule shows him participating in a day full of events at Windsor Castle, where Charles and Camilla had arrived on Tuesday.

 

“Tomorrow is going to be a very big day,” Trump said, according to the BBC.

The president also had kind words for Scotland, where he owns a world famous golf course. He called the country a part of the United Kingdom that “warm(s) my heart.”

Following additional meetings with Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the Trumps plan to return to the U.S. on Thursday evening.
