The monarch, 95, is experiencing mild cold-like symptoms and expects to continue light duties at Windsor this week, the palace says.

The Queen was in direct contact with Prince Charles the week the heir-to-the-throne tested positive for COVID for a second time.

His wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, was also diagnosed with the virus.

Others at Windsor are understood to have contracted COVID.

Sky’s royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills said: “I understand that a number of cases have been diagnosed within the Windsor Castle team.

“So clearly, those around her have had COVID, she’s now contracted it.”
