King Charles manages cancer treatment despite hectic royal duties

The 76-year-old monarch was diagnosed from undisclosed form of cancer in February last year

King Charles has seemingly aimed to continue his hectic royal engagements despite his ongoing battle with cancer.

The 76-year-old monarch is reportedly managing his illness and has been trying hard to live his royal life "as normal as possible."

According to an exclusive report by GB News, an insider recently revealed that no one from Buckingham Palace can convince His Majesty to slow down his tireless royal activities.

The tipster added, "The thing you learn about this illness [cancer] is that you just manage it. And that's what he does."

"As long as you just do what the doctors say, just live your life as normal as possible, and that's exactly what he is doing," the source remarked.

The insider further noted that due to the King's "incredible" fitness, he is dealing with his illness and monarchy side by side. 

When did King Charles diagnose with cancer? 

For those unaware, King Charles III was diagnosed with an unspecified form of cancer on February 5th, 2024, when Buckingham Palace issued the distressing update in an emotional post.

At that time, they revealed, "During the King's recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer."
