The royal family have been slowly returning to public duties as lockdown restrictions have been relaxed.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have also been meeting the public, visiting local businesses close to their Norfolk home.
It comes just days after it was revealed the Duchess of Cornwall will discuss life in lockdown, missing her grandchildren and how Charles is the fittest man she knows for his age in an upcoming radio interview.
Camilla is due to cover a wide range of topics as she undertakes her first-ever radio guest edit on BBC Radio 5 Live’s The Emma Barnett Show on Tuesday.

The duchess will say how her husband, the Prince of Wales, remains in good shape despite suffering from Covid-19 earlier this year.
In a pre-recorded segment of the show, Camilla will say: ‘He is probably the fittest man of his age I know. He’ll walk and walk and walk. He’s like a mountain goat, he leaves everybody miles behind.’
The duchess will also talk about missing her grandchildren during lockdown and how she ‘shall look forward to the day’ she can hug them.
‘You’re so excited because you haven’t seen them for three-and-a-half months … Your first reaction is to run up and hug them, and you have to sort of put up your hands. It’s a very odd feeling,’ she will say.
On the topic of the coronavirus lockdown, Camilla will talk about her love of jeans and how she has familiarised herself with online video conference calling.
She will comment: ‘I’m ashamed to say that I really hated the internet. I didn’t understand it and I thought, “What’s the point of this?”.
