King Charles III has been diagnosed with cancer less than 15 months after ascending to the throne, Buckingham Palace announced Monday.
“During The King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted,” the palace said in a statement. “Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer.
“His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties.
“Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual,” the palace added.
The shocking development comes just a week after the 75-year-old king was discharged from the hospital following the treatment for an enlarged prostate.
Officials did not disclose with which specific form of cancer Charles was diagnosed.
“The King is grateful to his medical team for their swift intervention, which was made possible thanks to his recent hospital procedure,” the statement from the palace continued.
