Charles III's wife spotted doing Christmas shopping: what gift Queen Camilla has chosen

British Queen Camilla, who is recovering from a chest infection, was spotted doing Christmas shopping at Fortnum & Mason, a London-based knick-knack store. According to eyewitnesses, the monarch's wife was choosing tea as a gift. Witnesses claim that she opted for black tea with orange and cinnamon.

According to the Daily Mail, almost no one in the crowd noticed the Queen, as they did not expect to see her in a regular store. However, she was accompanied by several so-called assistants who work for the royal family.

Camilla was spotted by a man who was in a shop buying tea for his beloved. He looked across the table and saw the wife of monarch Charles III standing opposite him with the same tin.

The source notes that she continued a long tradition of the royal family with her unexpected appearance in the store, having visited Fortnum & Mason for Christmas shopping.

Queen Elizabeth II used to shop at this store for New Year's gifts. To do this, she would arrange her arrival several months in advance. The late monarch also often preferred to give her family tea for the holidays.

"The list of provisions provided for her and her mother to give as presents reveal a shared practical bent of mind, with breakfast trays, breakfast sets, garden furniture and hostess trolleys being particularly popular," the source says on the store's website.

The royal family will celebrate Christmas in a large circle this year as King Charles III invited 45 guests. His son, Prince William, said he was looking forward to the day when everyone could get together.

"We’ll be in Norfolk, at Sandringham. We’ll be 45 for Christmas. It won’t be quiet, it will be noisy. It will not be quiet, it will be noisy. Am I ready for Christmas? No, no way am I ready," Prince William said.
