Buckingham Palace announced in February 2024 that King Charles III received a cancer diagnosis one week after he was admitted to The London Clinic to undergo treatment for an enlarged prostate. “During The King’s recent hospital procedure […]“My wife and I have been profoundly shocked to hear of the utterly horrific incident in Southport today,” a social media statement read. “We send our most heartfelt condolences, prayers and deepest sympathies to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives, and to all those affected by this truly appalling attack.”
Amidst his working responsibilities, Charles was diagnosed with an undisclosed type of cancer in February. He privately underwent treatment before resuming his public duties in April, visiting a cancer treatment facility with Camilla, 76.

But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well.”
Kate paused all public-facing engagements, save for brief outings at Trooping the Colour and Wimbledon this summer, to recuperate.
“I am learning how to be patient, especially with uncertainty. Taking each day as it comes, listening to my body, and allowing myself to take this much-needed time to heal,” she added in her June statement. “Thank you so much for your continued understanding, and to all of you who have so bravely shared your stories with me.”
