King Charles has had one of his most, if not the most, challenging years of his life. In early February, it was announced that he had an unspecified form of cancer and so he left his royal duties until late April to receive treatment and recover.
At the time of writing, King Charles seems to be back on track. However, his wife, Queen Camilla, is said to regularly be fighting a battle with him to prevent him from coming back and working too hard, too fast. Soon, the king and queen will embark on their first major overseas trip with a tour to Australia and Samoa in October, providing he doesn’t suffer any significant health setbacks.
King Charles has actually been consistent with handing out – albeit minor – information regarding his health, but lately, things have been rather quiet. However, on Wednesday, Charles finally broke his silence with another heartfelt update.

On February 5, Buckingham Palace revealed the shock news that King Charles had been diagnosed with an unspecified form of cancer.

King Charles – cancer
“His Majesty has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer.”
Charles’ decision to reveal his cancer diagnosis may have saved lives. As reported by the Associated Press, Cancer Research UK recorded a 33% increase in visits to its website as people searched for information regarding the signs and symptoms of cancer.
“I would like to express my most heartfelt thanks for the many messages of support and good wishes I have received in recent days,” Charles said in a statement some days after the first update on his health.
“As all those who have been affected by cancer will know, such kind thoughts are the greatest comfort and encouragement.”
“It is equally heartening to hear how sharing my own diagnosis has helped promote public understanding and shine a light on the work of all those organisations which support cancer patients and their families across the UK and wider world,” Charles added.
“My lifelong admiration for their tireless care and dedication is all the greater as a result of my own personal experience.”
