Like few other times, King Charles opened up about the cancer that was detected earlier this year.
This Monday, King Charles III paid a visit to the army aviation center, located in the southeast of England, to officially hand over the position of colonel-in-chief of the air corps to Prince William, a situation that was interpreted by many as a snub to the Prince Harry, who recently visited London and was unable to meet his dad due to his "busy schedule."
Furthermore, this was the first official engagement that Charles and William have made together since September 2022, and since King Charles was diagnosed with cancer.
Although this event had a sad meaning for Carlos, since he held this position for 32 years, it also served to make it clear that his spirit has not flagged and that his treatment continues, after resuming his schedule last April .
A few weeks ago it was rumored that the sovereign's health was much more serious than initially implied after he was diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of the year.
However, Buckingham Palace indirectly denied that information by announcing that the king had received approval from his doctors to return to public duties.
The exact type of cancer he suffers from has not been revealed yet, but during his last appearance he revealed one of the side effects of the treatment he is undergoing.
During the visit, Carlos had the opportunity to speak with a veterinarian named Aaron Mapplebeck, who explained that he had lost his sense of taste while receiving chemotherapy to fight testicular cancer.
It was at that moment when the monarch made a rare confidence by assuring him that the same thing had happened to him, although he did not give more details in his response.
