In British history, Charles III was the crown prince for a long time, and did not officially ascend the throne until the death of his mother, Elizabeth II. However, although his reign lasted only a short year and a half, he was unfortunately plagued by cancer.
Just recently, on February 5, after celebrating his 75th birthday, Charles announced that he had cancer, although he kept the disease a secret. Previously, he underwent prostate surgery, and although the possibility of prostate cancer was ruled out, the specific type of cancer was not disclosed. Buckingham Palace was silent about this. Meanwhile, Queen Camilla said at an event on Feb. 9 that Charles was in good condition and thanked the outside world for showing concern for him, but did not disclose further details.
According to the foreign media "National Enquirer", Charles has pancreatic cancer and has an estimated life expectancy of only about six months. The news shocked the whole of the United Kingdom. Upon learning of his condition, Charles immediately returned to Sandringham Manor to receive ** away from the public eye. At the same time, he urgently contacted his second son, Prince Harry, who flew back to the United Kingdom and hurried back to the United States to spend an hour with his father at the estate to accompany his wife and children.
Foreign media "In Touch" revealed on February 16 that he is considering abdicating to maintain the dignity of the royal family due to the possibility of a rapid deterioration in Charles's condition. It is reported that Prince William may be crowned king ahead of schedule, while Charles passes the throne to his eldest son.
William's wife, Kate, was hospitalized for health problems earlier this year, almost at the same time as her father-in-law's admission. According to people familiar with the matter, Kate underwent abdominal surgery and was discharged from the hospital in early February. Despite the previously announced suspension, William attended the event on February 7 and had to reluctantly attend the event due to his father's cancer.
Not long ago, Kate went to the Whitehall monument in London to lay a bouquet of flowers, and she looked tired and emaciated.
At the same time, Charles's sister, Princess Anne, took on many official duties on her own, attending on behalf of her brother and nephew. She is seen as the future "Auxiliary Minister", even more so than Camilla.
At the moment, Charles is most worried about his youngest son Harry, who he has called on Harry to return to England in the hope that the two brothers can reconcile. However, William did not want to see his brother at all and refused to meet with Harry. After William ascends the throne, the first person to lose power will not be his stepmother Camilla, but Harry and Meghan, who leaked the privacy of the royal family.
