According to his words, which were republished by the Sun, Charles and Camilla were at Dumfries House, along with the daughter of former US President George W. Bush and journalist Jenna Bush Hager, who was to record an interview with the current royal wife. .
Suddenly a member of staff came running into the room to inform them of an ‘urgent call’. Running and quick footsteps were heard in the corridor. Prince Charles picked up the phone and was updated on the state of his mother’s health.
Immediately after, “silence ensued and everyone was asked to be quiet,” according to the report.
A few minutes later Charles and Camilla boarded the helicopter and sped off to Balmoral Castle in Scotland.
Prince Charles was briefed at 12:30 p.m. and four minutes later the statement from Buckingham Palace was released expressing “doctors’ concern about the development of Elizabeth’s health.”
All close members of the royal family rushed to Balmoral but only Charles and Princess Anne managed to see Queen Elizabeth alive for the last time.
