But despite being reunited, it appears the royal couple have been dealt another cruel blow, after it was revealed they will be spending their wedding anniversary in lockdown.

According to Express, Charles and Camilla’s special day will now be a muted affair, which they will spend in isolation at Birkhall on the Queen’s Balmoral estate.

While the couple had planned to spend Easter in Scotland, most likely surrounded by family and friends, with lockdown measures in place, it looks as though it will be a soiree for two.

This year marks the couple’s crystal wedding anniversary, which represents 15 years of marriage since they tied the knot on April 9, 2005.

While the Duchess hasn’t tested positive for the virus, there was a crucial reason why she had to remain in isolation for 14 days, even though Charles only kept his distance for seven.

According to British NHS guidelines, the quarantine rules differ for those who test positive to the virus and those who are living with them at the time of their diagnosis.

“Having consulted with his doctor, The Prince of Wales is now out of self-isolation”, a Clarence House spokesperson allegedly said at the time, Mail Online reported.

The reason why Camilla had to remain in seclusion, despite her negative status, is because it can take up to two weeks for COVID-19 symptoms to appear.
