King Charles is actively fulfilling his royal responsibilities while also undergoing canc3r treatment, which has been well documented. Reports from late last year indicated that the monarch, diagnosed with canc3r a year ago, would be continuing his treatment into 2025.
A recent announcement of an upcoming state visit abroad might suggest positive progress in Charles’ treatment journey. Nonetheless, skepticism persists regarding the challenges facing the Palace in the near future.

Throughout the past year, King Charles has faced multiple trials as he navigates his royal duties. The loss of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, two years ago, and the tragic death of his longtime companion Ian Farquhar have added to his grief.
Charles’ reign faced early turbulence as he dealt with issues surrounding his son, Prince Harry, and daughter-in-law, Meghan Markle’s allegations against the Royal Family. This was followed by the devastating news of his canc3r diagnosis last year.
Despite undergoing canc3r treatment over the past year, Charles has not fully recuperated. While he briefly halted his treatment for the Australia & Samoa state visit with Camilla, his recovery remains ongoing.
At the inception of his canc3r journey, King Charles opted to disclose his diagnosis, a decision reportedly opposed by Camilla. However, his openness significantly impacted the UK, leading to a surge in individuals seeking canc3r screenings.
Charles hoped that sharing his canc3r diagnosis would raise awareness and support others, a goal that seemed to be achieved. A week after revealing his diagnosis, he sent a personal message to the nation expressing gratitude for the outpouring of support.
“I am immensely thankful for the overwhelming support and goodwill I have received in recent days,” he expressed. “Understanding how such kindness can provide solace and encouragement to those affected by canc3r, I am deeply moved,” Charles conveyed.
An update on King Charles’ can3er treatment reveals that he continues his treatment, citing positive progress. Laura Lee, CEO of can3er support charity Maggie’s, emphasized the commonality of long-term can3er treatments and the varying modalities available.
Planning for a state visit to Italy is now in motion, with King Charles set to travel in April alongside his wife. This visit marks an important diplomatic engagement between Italy and the UK.
Grant Harrold, King Charles’ former butler, commended his employer’s cautious approach to international visits, considering his age and health concerns.
Discussing King Charles’ resilience during treatment, Harrold noted his positive attitude in overcoming challenges.
Despite visible signs of progress in Charles’ health, concerns remain regarding the extent of his recovery. Royal expert Daniela Elser, in a recent column, alluded to behind-the-scenes challenges faced by the Palace amidst the monarch’s health battles.
Tragic losses have marked Charles’ recent years, including the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and his dear friend Ian Farquhar. These losses have deeply impacted the monarch emotionally.
Recent revelations about Ian Farquhar’s passing shed light on his struggles with alcoholism, adding to the string of tragedies in Charles’ close circle.
Continuing the cycle of grief, Charles mourned the recent passing of his friend The Aga Khan in Lisbon. The late Prince Karim, a close confidant of Charles and the founding patron of the King’s Trust, leaves behind a legacy of philanthropy.
The passing of The Aga Khan has left King Charles profoundly saddened, further adding to the challenges he faces in his personal and royal responsibilities.
