TACKLING TABOOS AND BESTOWING HONOURS ROYAL LEADING LADIES KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON AS THE KING AND KATE RECUPERATE

As the King and Princess of Wales recuperate after undergoing surgery, the royal family’s other senior women have been holding the fort.

It was business as usual last week for the Queen, the Princess Royal and the Duchess of Edinburgh, who all stepped out on official engagements around the country.

And after His Majesty chose to share the news in January that he needed treatment for an enlarged prostate, with the aim of raising awareness of the issue, this time it was his wife and sister-in-law who were breaking taboos.

While Camilla, 76, was meeting survivors of domestic violence, Sophie, 59, was having a frank discussion about periods at a girls’ school in London. Meanwhile, Princess Anne, 73, who regularly tops the list of the busiest royals, carried out seven engagements – four of them in one day.

The Queen, a long-standing campaigner on domestic violence, spoke about her efforts to shine a spotlight on the issue during a visit to a specialist hub in South London, run by the charity Refuge to support survivors of violence against women and girls.

SCOTCHING STIGMA

“I’ve been trying to get out there and talk about it and stop it being a taboo subject, which it has been for years,” Her Majesty said.

“I particularly salute all the survivors who are able to get out there, talk to me, talk to everybody and tell other people about what they’ve been through, because they are going to save lives by getting others to come forward.”
