King Charles III Resumes Public Engagements Following Cancer Diagnosis as Kate Middleton Undergoes Preventative Treatment

Fox News’ Stephanie Bennett reports on King Charles III returning to public-facing engagements following his cancer diagnosis in February, which was announced by Buckingham Palace alongside a separate issue of concern identified during the king’s “benign prostate enlargement” procedure. The 75-year-old visited University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre with Queen Camilla and met medical specialists and patients, although it is understood that the cancer center has not been directly involved in his treatment programme. Royal expert Robert Jobson suggests this visit was aimed at presenting a positive message to offset speculation about Charles’ prognosis. The king will also host Emperor Naruhito of Japan for a state visit next month as he continues with his medical care, although it is too early to say how long the treatment may continue. Meanwhile, Kate Middleton has revealed that she is undergoing preventative chemotherapy after being diagnosed with cancer earlier this year and remains on break from royal duties while her husband Prince William resumes engagements for their family.
