After a very hard time, Queen Camilla has regained her smile in a very special evening. Carlos III’s wife has been praised for her exceptional efforts to promote literature and the habit of reading and for this she has received an Honorary Doctorate in Literature. It should be remembered that less than a month ago, he had to cancel all his commitments and his official agenda due to a “chest infection” that caused him an annoying cough for several days. Added to this is that last week his dog died, “who brought so much joy to his life and was his great companion.”

Beth, who brought so much joy and was the Queen’s companion, has left.” Both Beth and Bluebell were adopted by queen camilla at the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home Old Windsor — an animal shelter and care center — . Since then, the two Jack Russell Terriers have accompanied the Kings on numerous royal engagements.
