The news was announced on the prince’s official Twitter page: “This morning The Prince of Wales has tested positive for COVID-19 and is now self-isolating. HRH is deeply disappointed not to be able to attend today’s events in Winchester and will look to reschedule his visit as soon as possible.”

His aides acknowledged that Charles, “was found to be positive during a routine test – which suggested he was experiencing no strong symptoms – but they declined to go into further details on his medical condition.”

The positive test came hours after the couple met with Priti Patel and Rishi Sunak at a British Asian Trust reception at the British Museum. The queen was also exposed to Charles’ presence, but while the palace admitted this, it made no statement about her current health condition leaving the public worried for the 95-year old monarch who has been in ill health in recent months.
