According to a recent announcement from Buckingham Palace, King Charles is set to resume his public duties next week after being diagnosed with cancer. Alongside his wife, Queen Camilla, the monarch will be visiting a cancer treatment center in London on Tuesday to meet with other patients and medical experts.
A spokesperson from the palace expressed the King's gratitude to his medical team for their continued care and expertise, stating that he is greatly encouraged to be able to return to some of his public engagements. The news comes just in time for the couple's upcoming state visit from the Emperor and Empress of Japan in June, which was also announced recently.
In addition, King Charles and Queen Camilla will be celebrating their first anniversary as monarchs on May 6. To mark the occasion, they released a new photo taken by portrait photographer Millie Pilkington in the Buckingham Palace garden. The photo was taken the morning after their 19th wedding anniversary and shows the couple looking regal and in love. The Queen is wearing a stunning indigo day dress with velvet details by Fiona Clare.
The last time the King was seen in public was at an Easter Sunday service at Windsor Castle, where he briefly interacted with the gathered crowds alongside Queen Camilla. While he is set to undertake some external engagements in the coming weeks, the palace has stated that it will not be a full summer program for the King. Events such as Trooping the Colour, garden parties at Buckingham Palace, and Royal Ascot will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
The spokesperson also emphasized that all future plans are subject to the King's doctors' advice and that any forthcoming engagements will be adapted to minimize any potential risks to his continued recovery. The King announced his cancer diagnosis in February after a tumor was discovered during a routine procedure for an enlarged prostate in January. While the type of cancer has not been disclosed, the palace has clarified that it is not prostate cancer.
It is also worth mentioning that the King's daughter-in-law, Princess Catherine, is currently undergoing treatment for an unspecified cancer, which was also found during a routine operation in January. The palace has not provided any updates on her condition, but it is clear that the royal family is facing difficult times. We wish both the King and Princess Catherine a speedy recovery and hope to see them back to full health soon.
