Camilla Parker Bowles has made a rather bizarre confession about Prince Charles, while addressing the future monarch’s health since recovering from coronavirus.
WATCH: Queen is allowing Prince Charles to ‘take over’
Speaking during a pre-recorded segment on BBC Radio’s The Emma Barnett Show, which airs in the UK on Tuesday, the Duchess made the remark while discussing her husband’s vigour.
“He is probably the fittest man of his age I know. He’ll walk and walk and walk,” Camilla told listeners, according to Express.
“He’s like a mountain goat, he leaves everybody miles behind.”
Camilla’s strange comparison comes after it was suggested the Duke may be battling an unknown condition, after photos of him with swollen hands and feet emerged last year.
While visiting India last November, onlookers couldn’t help noticing both his hands and feet appeared very inflamed and puffy.
Although it’s not clear if the Duke has any underlying health concerns, puffy and swollen feet can be caused from flying on planes – and he had travelled nine hours to India.
That said, the future King of England’s health has a matter of concern ever since he tested positive for coronavirus in late March, a few days after he and Duchess Camilla entered into isolation.
As a result, some royalists have questioned whether it would be appropriate for the Duke to take over the reins should Her Majesty chose to step down in the wake of the pandemic.
Regardless, Charles has already resumed his royal duties and even made a shocking confession about his experience during a recent conversation with frontline workers.
While discussing being diagnosed with healthcare assistant Jeff Mills, the Duke admitted that, despite overcoming his affliction, he still feels as though he’s got the virus, Hello! reported.
“He did speak of his personal experience, so first-hand experience for him. He also spoke about his loss of smell and taste, and sort of still felt he’s still got it now,” Jeff said.
