King Charles III has been diagnosed with cancer and has begun treatment, but remains positive and committed to his duties.
King Charles III has been diagnosed with a form of cancer and has begun treatment, Buckingham Palace said on February 5.
The palace says the cancer is not related to the king’s recent treatment for a benign prostate condition. It did not say what form of cancer the 75-year-old monarch has.
The palace said “a separate issue of concern was noted” during King Charles' treatment for an enlarged prostate last month. “Diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,” it said.
“His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties,” the palace said. "Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual."
It said King Charles “remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible.”
