As King Charles embarks on his first Australian tour as monarch, Queen Camilla, 76, may face challenges due to the trip’s exhausting nature. Learn more about the royal couple’s upcoming journey.
BollywoodFever: As King Charles embarks on his first historic tour of Australia as the reigning monarch, royal experts predict the trip may present some challenges for Queen Camilla, who is expected to find the journey “extremely exhausting” due to her age and health.
The royal couple will arrive in Australia on October 18, followed by a visit to Samoa on October 23, before returning to the UK on October 26.

Speaking with Fabulous, Majesty Magazine’s editor-in-chief, Ingrid Seward, offered insight into Queen Camilla’s stamina for the tour. “Queen Camilla is 76… She gets very tired because she’s not born to this royal life,” Seward explained. “She’s not a great traveller and she’s not good in the heat.”
Seward highlighted the difficulties Camilla may face due to age-related issues, such as swelling feet and discomfort, adding that such tours are more suited for younger royals. Despite the challenges, Seward believes that Queen Camilla will persevere and ensure the trip’s success.
The King and Queen will begin their journey in Sydney on October 18, followed by a trip to Canberra for a banquet with senior politicians. This marks King Charles’ 17th visit to Australia but his first as monarch, as well as his first return to the country since 2018 when he opened the Commonwealth Games.
Though the tour may be difficult for Queen Camilla, the couple’s presence in Australia is expected to be warmly welcomed, marking a significant moment in the Commonwealth nation’s history.
