International press reveals Camilla's secret: king Charles III in shock

The surprising move by Queen Camilla of England that could put her back at the center of criticism

Queen Camilla and King Charles III are one of the most watched couples in European royalty. Their schedules, although different, attract the interest of the international press. Lately, the king has focused on his fight against cancer, while she has kept an active and supportive profile.

Although Queen Camilla has gradually earned the respect of royal followers, she is constantly scrutinized. Every public appearance generates headlines, especially when she combines her personal style with settings that spark curiosity and debate.

Public perceptions about what Queen Camilla has done

The British press confirmed that Camilla traveled to Greece, just as other families from European royal houses have done. Her stay drew attention because of where she stayed: the yacht Zenobia. Valued at €34 million and owned by businessman Wafic Said.

The Mirror pointed out that "seeing Camilla on the boat of a billionaire conservative donor is the wrong signal" for the image of the Crown. Although no inappropriate conduct is alleged, accepting the hospitality of such an influential political figure has caused mixed opinions.

This comes at a time when the king is talking about cutting expenses and with the cost-of-living crisis affecting millions of Britons. The British outlet emphasized: "They represent the country at all times." "This doesn't give Camilla a good image, especially when relationships are called into question."

A relationship of years

Wafic Said, who was absent during the trip, has kept ties with the royal family for decades. In 2019, Charles organized a dinner at Clarence House for his 80th birthday, and his family was a founding patron of the King Charles III Fund.

In addition, the businessman was a close friend of Margaret Thatcher. He ranks 85th among the richest on the Sunday Times list with a fortune of £1.9 billion.

Camilla's trip is a reminder that, even outside the institutional schedule, members of the royal family represent the Crown. For her supporters, this is a private visit that shouldn't have a major impact on her public image. However, the context and symbolism of the company she keeps mean her vacation in Greece remains a topic of debate.
