In a shocking development, Buckingham Palace has announced that King Charles III has been diagnosed with cancer. This diagnosis comes just over a week after the monarch underwent treatment for an enlarged prostate. According to Buckingham Palace, doctors discovered cancer in King Charles III’s body during his treatment for an enlarged prostate. The palace did not specify the type of cancer, only stating that it is not related to the prostate. This suggests that the cancer has been found elsewhere in the king’s body. The exact details of the diagnosis remain undisclosed.
Following the diagnosis, King Charles III has commenced a schedule of regular treatments. Buckingham Palace has assured the public that the king remains positive about his treatment and is looking forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible. While undergoing treatment, King Charles III will be postponing his public-facing duties but will continue with his official business and office work.
The palace expressed the king’s gratitude to his medical team for their swift intervention, made possible by his recent hospital procedure. The statement emphasized that King Charles III chose to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and to provide understanding to those around the world who are affected by cancer.
King Charles III ascended to the throne less than a year and a half ago, following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in September 2022. He was officially crowned on May 6, 2023. Prior to his cancer diagnosis, the king’s health was generally considered to be good. However, it is worth noting that he had a noncancerous growth removed from his face in 2008.
The news of King Charles III’s diagnosis has undoubtedly impacted the royal family. His son, Prince William, the Prince of Wales and next in line to the throne, is expected to return to his royal duties after taking time off to support his wife, Kate, following her recent surgery. Additionally, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, who currently resides in the United States, is reportedly planning to visit his father in the coming days.
The diagnosis of King Charles III has garnered attention from politicians and leaders around the world. British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak expressed his well wishes for the king’s recovery, confident that he will return to full strength soon. President Joe Biden also expressed concern for the king’s health during a campaign trip, stating that he plans to reach out to him.
