King Charles Shares Personal Detail with Fellow Cancer Patients [Video]

King Charles opened up about his cancer treatment during a poignant visit to a cancer treatment center.

The King, 75, resumed public-facing royal duties for the first time since Buckingham Palace announced the news about his health in February, visiting the Macmillan Cancer Centre at the University College Hospital London on April 30. Along with Queen Camilla, the King met patients and staff to emphasize the importance of early cancer detection and learn more about the innovative research happening at the hospital supported by Cancer Research U.K.

While connecting with patients, King Charles told them that he was going for his own treatment later in the day, Chris Ship of ITV wrote on X.

“Many patients said afterward they felt a personal connection with him as he understands what they had been through and are still going through,” the royals reporter added.
