Queen Camilla told a BBC documentary that King Charles has a habit of laughing loudly while reading before dinner, which she described as 'off-putting' to her own concentration.
Camilla, who runs a literacy charity called The Queen's Reading Room, used the appearance to reiterate her longstanding advocacy for reading, noting she left school young and credits books with most of her education.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
A queen complaining that her husband laughs too loud at his book is the sort of problem most people would trade for in a heartbeat. It is a pleasant little anecdote dressed up as news because a royal mouth said it on camera. Harmless enough, though it says something about the appetite for palace gossip that this counts as a story at all.
