King Charles found out about his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II’s failing health just a few minutes before the public became aware, according to reports.

Appearing on True Royalty TV’s The Royal Beat, Newsweek's Chief Royal Correspondent Jack Royston revealed how the King was told the horrible news at his Scottish home of Dumfries House with his wife, now the Queen Consort, Camilla.

Camilla had been preparing to be interviewed by Jenna Bush Hager, the daughter of former US President George W. Bush, who has since said she heard footsteps running in the hallway before the interview was promptly cancelled.

Jack says: “Charles took a call, everything was silent, and they were asked to be silent.Then the next thing she knew, Charles and Camilla were in a helicopter. “And that was at 12.30 [on Thursday 8 September], so that was around exactly the same time that we were told. “So they didn't wait, they didn't give Charles an hour or two hours [before telling the public].” Following the phone call, Charles rushed to Balmoral to be by his mother’s side where he remained until she died.

Queen’s death prompts calls to return ‘stolen’ diamonds in crown jewels
Queen Elizabeth II‘s death, calls are now being made for the monarchy to release several diamonds currently featured in the British crown jewels.The Kohinoor diamond, also known as Koh-i-noor or Koh-i-Nûr, the Great Star of Africa and the Second Star of Africa diamonds are often seen as symbols of imperialist history. Chinese delegation barred from Queen Elizabeth’s lying in state: report The 105-carat Kohinoor diamond is one of the largest cut diamonds in the world, and was originally mined in India thousands of years ago.The monetary value of the diamond is unclear, though it is startling in both size and sparkle.Despite the diamond’s complicated and mysterious history — and many owners who lay claim to it across India, Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan — it now adorns a crown created for Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother to wear during her coronation as queen consort in 1937.The diamond had previously been worn as a brooch by Queen Victoria and was also included in the crowns of Queen Alexandra and Queen Mary.The Kohinoor diamond is on display, still set in Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother’s crown, at the Tower of London.There are reports that Camilla, the Queen Consort, will wear the crown at King Charles’ coronation, but that is yet to be seen.In 2016, the Indian Culture Ministry called for “all possible efforts” to return the Kohinoor diamond to India.
