King Charles, the monarch of England, has been recovering from an illness recently. Palace officials have expressed that he is doing well, but his wife, Queen Camilla, has revealed that he is still not following doctor's orders. The queen shared this insight with author Lee Child during the second annual Queen's Reading Room Literary Festival at Hampton Court Palace in London today.
According to Queen Camilla, King Charles is "doing fine except he won't slow down and won't do what he's told." Child humorously added that the king sounds like a typical husband. During the festival, Queen Camilla also met with other important figures such as the chairman of Historic Royal Palaces and various authors.
One of the guest authors, Ian Rankin, shared that the Queen herself told him that the royal family are fans of his books. It's clear that literature and reading hold a special place in the hearts of the royal family.
In February, Buckingham Palace announced that King Charles, who has only been on the throne for less than 18 months, had been diagnosed with cancer. The exact type of cancer has not been disclosed, but officials have stated that it is not prostate cancer. The palace also stated that the king was receiving treatment as an outpatient in London.
However, this has not stopped King Charles from fulfilling his duties. He will be attending Trooping the Colour, an event that marks the monarch's official birthday on June 15. This will be his first public appearance since his illness. Unfortunately, his daughter-in-law Kate, who is also undergoing treatment for an undisclosed type of cancer, will not be able to attend the final rehearsal of Trooping the Colour, known as the Colonel's Review.
In a letter shared on X today, the Colonel-in-Chief of the regiment expressed her apologies for not being able to attend and wished the best of luck to all involved.
