Why did camilla stay in car?

[Estermay]

I think I missed the official explanation. So can anyone explain why camilla stayed in the car while Charles did an official visit in Kenya?
Was she unwell?

Different shoes though in those videos - maybe her aching feet face 😊

Wtf.
I asked a question because I thought those very interested in the Royal family might know the answer.
It is obvious nobody knows. And yes the photo is genuine. Taken by a Kenyan journalist.
Maybe she was unwell or is just too old to do this level of visits. If the latter I hope Charles just goes by himself in future.

And they did lots of visits in Kenya. Nobody us suggesting camilla stayed in the car all the time. It was at this one visit.

You don't even know that it happened at that one visit though. All you have is a still image.

A respected Kenyan journalist reported the fact.

Link @Estermay ?

How on earth is anyone expected to know the reason. It could be a number of things.

I thought the reason would have been reported.

Extraordinarily inaccurate!

There are pix and vid of her visiting the gardens.

Perhaps the inaccurate assertion was written by someone with an agenda, who doesn't expect the readership to check stuff.

Maybe she did delay a bit in getting out of the car, but the rest is invented bollocks

Seems a snide and unpleasant post. Don't you like her, OP?

How is it snide to ask why she stayed in the car?
It was reported in Kenya.
I assumed she was ill or exhausted but wondered if it had been reported.
Why the extreme nastiness?

I don't want to be nasty.

But 2 mins on goggle would have showed you that she did not remain in the car, as she is pictured with the King visiting the gardens. And that was widely reported in Kenya.

That is not what I have read. What Kenyan media have you seen that reported in?

King Charles III, Queen arrive at Uhuru Gardens (the-star.co.ke)

Definitely out of the car in that picture

. It’s about 17 minutes in and they both get out of the car

She is not a young woman. I imagine Royal Tours would be quite exhausting at any age.
Leave the poor woman alone

This isn’t strictly true. The King is personally exempt from some parts of some H&S laws but only a few. The Crown as a whole are not exempt. The Royal Household has a health and safety manager.
They are not exempt from the smokefree legislation.
But in any case this isn’t relevant in Kenya, where UK law doesn’t apply.

So this is one of those examples of fake news created by either an innocent misunderstanding of a badly written photo caption or a deliberate attempt to mislead - and as all reports seem to lead back to Celebitchy I’d lean towards the deliberately malicious.

Camilla didn’t stay in the car during this trip not even for a short time. She was a couple of minutes behind Charles getting out.

The photo in question was either snapped just before she got out or at another point on that trip.

Here’s how the confusion happened as far as I can see.

The Kenyan news site posted the picture of Camilla in the car with a caption which was something like ‘Camilla seen in car during King’s visit to Uhuru Gardens’

The caption means ‘at some point during the visit she was pictured in the car’

That sentence - again just a picture caption not a report - has been taken to mean that she stayed in the car ‘during the whole visit’ - it was compounded by a following photo showing the King paying tribute without Camilla but the video footage shows that she was simply waiting alongside a little ways back with the First Lady while that ceremony happened.

The only sites ‘reporting’ on this ‘incident’ are the gossip site and some of those weird ‘scraper’ sites like geo news which just copy and paste stuff which might get clicks from anywhere on the internet without checking.

So @Estermay there was no Kenyan journalist reporting this incident because it did not happen.

Do we need to speculate? Not everything they do is for our consumption.

Can't find it on Nation Africa - perhaps it's been taken down?

Geo TV says the photo was "allegedly" taken when she was "waiting inside the car as her husband laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior at Uhuru Gardens in Nairobi"

There are however pix and vid of her during the visit, with Charles, in the garden, with the wreaths (that sounds a bit too close to Cluedo!)
Here's an example - where they are accompanied by the President and the First Lady (third pic in the article - first two are the King and the President laying their respective wreaths individually, third shows them at the ceremony with their spouses)

[PHOTOS] Moment of silence as Ruto, King Charles III lay wreath at Uhuru Gardens (the-star.co.ke)

It's possible that both are true - short delay in exiting vehicle, then visit as planned. But I don't rule out malice, though as the insinuation (that she snubbed her hosts by refusing to leave the car, or that some form of unfitness is being covered up) is so easily shown to be false, maybe its just incompetence/cock up?

Why the extreme nastiness? That's exactly what I was wondering.

Leave the poor woman alone.

Her bunions were playing up.

Why don't you provide us with your respected Kenyan source as you were previously asked? Oh wait...

Link to Twitter x re Camilla staying on the car.

They haven’t taken the tweet down - as here it is. But attempts to find it on their website keep failing - I keep getting the notification that they are offline.
