In video celebrating Maggie’s cancer charity, queen recalls ‘longing to let it out’ on visit to centre in 2024

The queen has spoken for the first time of how difficult she found it to keep King Charles’s cancer a secret before it was announced publicly.

Camilla found herself “longing to let it out” during an official visit to a Maggie’s cancer support centre in 2024, after Charles had received his diagnosis but before the news was released.
