QUEEN Camilla has released an update on King Charles’ health as she encourages him to “slow down”.

The Queen, 76, revealed that Her Majesty is “fine except that she won’t slow down and she won’t do what she’s told.”

The Queen was speaking to author Lee Child at the time.

He added that he “sounds like a typical husband to me.”

The comforting health update came as Camilla arrived at the second annual Queen’s Reading Room Literary Festival at Hampton Court Palace.

She was welcomed by the chairman of Historic Royal Palaces, Sir Nicholas Coleridge, as well as Vicky Perrin, chief executive of the Queen’s Reading Room, and authors including Harlan Coben.

Author Sir Ian Rankin also said that the Queen told him that “her whole family were fans of my books”.

It comes after the brave King led D-Day celebrations – despite being in hospital for cancer treatment less than 24 hours earlier.

The Sun revealed how the 75-year-old Monarch was in a London hospital on Tuesday but was determined to join veterans the following day and “lead from the front”.

He went to Portsmouth on Wednesday morning and gave an emotional eight-minute speech that brought tears to his listeners.

Its appearance was reduced by 45 minutes, following medical advice.

But Charles still found time to speak and pay tribute to the 21 D-Day heroes invited to the televised event.

The “carefully calibrated” arrangements allowed the king to travel 200 kilometers to Normandy for his 80th birthday ceremonies.

There – assisted again by Camilla – he gave a heartfelt speech at the British Normandy Memorial, where the names of 22,442 fallen heroes are engraved.

And Her Majesty still has a busy schedule ahead of her.

He is due to attend the King’s Foundation Awards at St James’s Palace in London next Tuesday.

Charles and Camilla will also take part in a series of other events and engagements in the coming weeks, including a garden party at the Palace of Holyroodhouse during Scotland Week.

This year falls in General Election week, so the King should be back on Friday 5th July to officially ask whoever wins to form a new government.

It comes after Her Majesty bravely opened up about her diagnosis in February this year after the disease was detected during a prostate operation.

In April, Buckingham Palace announced the king’s official return to work and outlined his expected summer calendar.

Speaking about his health, the statement confirmed that the king’s medical team is “very encouraged” by the progress made so far and remains “positive” about his recovery.

They also explained how Charles’ schedule will be carefully calibrated to meet his recovery needs and he will be in close consultation with his medical team.

Despite ongoing treatment, the ‘workaholic’ king is still expected to attend the Trooping the Color anniversary parade in London on June 15.

This will be followed by an appearance at Royal Ascot on June 18, and a state visit by the Emperor and Empress of Japan later in the month.

And a two or three week trip around Australia could be in the busy King’s plans in October.
