This gesture was especially significant for King Charles III, a devoted admirer of Shakespeare and the President of the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1991, a role he assumed while still the Prince of Wales. His fondness for the author's literature even made him perform in Shakespeare plays while studying in college.

A video of Camilla at the event also made rounds online, where she was seen mingling with guests, such as representatives of the National Theatre and the Royal Shakespeare Company, directors, and authors. Some of the attendees included Charles Dance, Stephen Fry, and Sir David Suchet.

Queen Camilla's engagement came after her husband was diagnosed with cancer. She and King Charles were previously spotted returning to Buckingham Palace after spending a week at Sandringham in Norfolk.

On February 13, the couple made their way back home in a helicopter. They were photographed arriving at Clarence House looking high in spirits despite the diagnosis.
