London: Queen Camilla pulled out of attending the Duchess of Kent's funeral to recover from acute sinusitis on Tuesday, Buckingham Palace announced just hours before US President Donald Trump was to arrive on a state visit.
The queen, 78, is scheduled to accompany King Charles III for a busy programme of royal events during Trump's state visit on Wednesday and Thursday.
"With great regret, Her Majesty The Queen has withdrawn from attendance at this afternoon's Requiem Mass for The Duchess of Kent as she is recovering from acute sinusitis," a Buckingham Palace spokesperson said.
Camilla is reportedly hoping to recover sufficiently to be able to attend all elements of Trump's state visit, according to the PA news agency.
She is due to receive the Trumps alongside the king at Windsor Castle on Wednesday around noon local time (1100 GMT).
