In the glare of Royal duties, with a ccalendar brimming with events that whisk them across the nation and around the globe, the royals are no strangers to a hectic schedule. Yet, they too need occasional respite from their demanding roles to rejuvenate, much like any of us.
This year, the need for downtime is particularly poignant as King Charles and Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, courageously face their battles with cancer, seeking to maximise moments of rest amidst tough treatments. The King finds solace in tranquil walks, while Kate has previously shared her fondness for baking with her children.
In a surprising revelation, however – Queen Camilla recently disclosed her unique holiday indulgence. The 77 year old book lover divulged to the Queen’s Reading Room podcast her penchant for “binge reading,” a luxury she savours on holidays due to her usually packed schedule.
“I binge read because I have so little time to read things on most days,” the Queen confessed, chuckling about her attempts to read at home which often end with her dozing off after a few pages.
“I try! ” she said, reports the Mirror. “I’ll read three pages at night and immediately fall asleep and have to re-read them again the next morning! “.
