Just a few days ago, Prince Charles tested positive for COVID. He has since emerged from self-isolation, but Duchess Camilla also has it now.
There were fears Prince Charles may have infected Queen Elizabeth last week, but she has only now tested positive herself, following a recent audience at Windsor Castle.
According to the Daily Mail, other employees at the Palace have become infected too.
