King Charles has been diagnosed with a form of cancer, says Buckingham Palace.

It is not prostate cancer, but was discovered during his recent treatment for an enlarged prostate.

The type of cancer has not been revealed, but according to a palace statement the King began "regular treatments" on Monday.

Buckingham Palace says the King "remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible".

He will postpone his public engagements and it is expected other senior royals will help to stand in for him during his treatment.

No further details are being shared on the stage of cancer or a prognosis.

Although he will pause his public events, the King, 75, will continue with his constitutional role as head of state.

He was seen at a church service in Sandringham on Sunday, where he waved to crowds.

He had a prostate procedure at a private London hospital more than a week ago.

The King had chosen to go public about his prostate treatment, with the aim of encouraging more men to get prostate checks, the palace said at the time.

He was said to have been delighted to have raised awareness about the issue, with the NHS website reporting a surge in issues about prostate conditions.

At
least he can get treatments

[bots]

Depends on the cancer. It may be he has secondary cancers, and that wont be good, and that unfortunately, seems to be the likely situation

[Cherie]

It is ominous that they are not saying which type, obviously one of the stealthy ones that was picked up during his prostrate treatment. I wish him all the best, we were so used to Liz who was such a trojan and so healthy, this is sad news really given he is so early in his reign

I wouldn’t say ominous. Everyone has a right to medical confidentiality and at least some level of privacy. People don’t need to know any more than they strictly need to.

Wishing him the best of luck with it anyway.

well tbf I think most kids would do that and the optics would be terrible if he didn't so I wouldn't read too much into it Mr Doom and Gloom Might be the opportunity Harry needed to heal the rift

Charles loves Harry. It's William who he's feuding with.

[Ammi]

…all we can do is to wish him well and be assured that if his cancer is a type that responds well to treatments for a full recovery, then he’ll have every medical support possible to have that full recovery…I wish him well and back to full health…

There would be no rush for Harry to come over if it were not serious. It would be done quietly to stop people being concerned and trying to play it down to avoid speculation. Harry coming over immediately, dials speculation to the max

Harry rushed to Scotland for the queen and now he’s rushing to England for Charles. But will he make in time this time. That is the question.

it is a bit odd that he wanted to raise awareness of prostrate checks but does not want to do the same now.....

We've yet to find out what was exactly wrong with Kate.

[UserSince2005]
