Good Morning Britain star Nick Dixon issued a positive update on Queen Camilla's health.
During Thursday's instalment (November 7) of the ITV programme, it was confirmed the Queen Consort has been forced to miss today's opening of the annual Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey as she continues battling a chest infection.
Standing in for her will be the Duchess of Gloucester, who is married to a cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Reporting from outside the landmark, Nick explained: "The fields here at the Abbey are going to be open until the 19th of November every day," before revealing there are several other locations people can visit around the country.
Sharing hope that the royal will overcome her illness in the coming days, he added: "The Queen won't be here for the opening today, but there is hope that the Queen will make it for the weekend commemorations.
