King Charles has been diagnosed with a form of cancer, says Buckingham Palace.

The type of cancer has not been revealed - it is not prostate cancer, but was discovered during his recent treatment for an enlarged prostate. The King began “regular treatments” on Monday and will postpone public duties during the treatment, the Palace said.

The King, 75, “remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible,” it added. No further details are being shared on the stage of cancer or a prognosis.

Although he will pause his public events, the King will continue with his constitutional role as head of state, including paperwork and private meetings.

      They’re not. They’re royals. They want to be above us in anything else, they can be below us for this one.
