King Charles was diagnosed with cancer, beginning treatments, the Palace reports

Commencing treatment immediately, King Charles has been advised by physicians to postpone or reschedule public engagements. Despite the setback, he remains grateful for the prompt medical attention received and is eager to resume his official duties once able.

In a move to dispel rumors and raise awareness about cancer, King Charles chose to disclose his diagnosis publicly. He personally informed his sons, William and Harry, as well as his siblings, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward, prior to the announcement.

The King’s recent appearance alongside his wife, Camilla, at a Sandringham church service was captured just before news of his diagnosis was made public. While William maintains regular contact, Harry is expected to visit Britain soon, despite residing in California with Meghan.

As the monarch confronts this health challenge, his decision to share his diagnosis underscores the importance of transparency and support for all cancer sufferers worldwide.
