King Charles III, aged 75, has received a diagnosis of cancer, as per a statement released by Buckingham Palace on Monday.
The statement conveyed that during a recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate concern was identified, leading to subsequent diagnostic tests revealing a form of cancer. However, the palace did not specify the type or stage of cancer detected.
This announcement follows a week after both King Charles and Kate were discharged from a private London clinic following separate procedures. While the king underwent a corrective procedure for an enlarged prostate, Kate, aged 42, underwent an unspecified abdominal surgery on January 17.
