The Queen has been leading the Royal Family in the absence of King Charles following the monarch's cancer diagnosis but is now set for a short holiday outside of the UK to recharge.

The Queen will be back in action on March 11 to represent King Charles at the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey.

Camilla is said to be buoyed by the public's reaction to her leading the Royal Family over the last few weeks.

A royal source told The Times: "Although she was not expecting to find herself in the position of leading the family, the Queen is absolutely prepared to do whatever needs to be done for the institution."
