Queen Camilla made her mark during the royal Australian tour as she focussed the spotlight on a pressing issue in the country.
King Charles’ wife, who attended her first separate engagement during the visit, sat down for a meeting with an Aussie charity in Canberra.
Palace shared some key highlights from the meeting, in which a sombre-looking Queen met the founder and beneficiaries of a charity platform, GIVIT which was founded in 2009 by Juliette Wright, that is one of her patronages.
“According to The Australian Institute of Criminology, since the age of 15,” the carousel post was captioned. “1 in 5 women have experienced sexual violence; 1 in 4 women have experienced violence by an intimate partner; 1 in 3 women have experienced physical violence.”
The caption continued, “The Queen joined a discussion on family and domestic violence in Australia to hear more about what is being done to tackle the issue.”
The royal engagement came after King Charles and Camilla were rudely interrupted by Senator Lidia Thorpe in Canberra.
Thorpe was captured in footage hurling a brutal snub at Charles, yelling “Not my King” while security dragged her out of the Great Hall.
