Queen Camilla says King Charles loves reading biographies and often laughs aloud while they read together before dinner.
Queen Camilla has revealed that she and King Charles read together every evening before dinner. The King loves biographies and occasionally "roars" with laughter while reading, which Camilla says is "very off-putting" when she is engrossed in her own book. She describes reading as "like the best tonic in the world" and warns it would be "a complete and utter tragedy" if books disappeared.
