At first, Buckingham Palace announced that King Charles was battling cancer. The media frequently report on the monarch's health condition. The latest news is not encouraging.

In February 2024, Buckingham Palace announced that King Charles was suffering from cancer. The diagnosis was discovered accidentally during a routine check-up related to benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Representatives of the British monarchy did not provide further details, sparking a wave of media speculation about the King's health. Radar Online obtained a report that Charles supposedly received from his doctors.

The report published by Radar Online suggests that the King's condition is more serious than it might seem. Charles was told he only had two years to live.

Despite his illness, the King continues to fulfill his duties, but his appearances are significantly shorter. The media have also noted a change in his mode of transport. Charles increasingly uses a helicopter, which may indicate a significant deterioration in his health.

Palace on alert

A few days after Charles ascended to the throne, Buckingham Palace began preparations for Operation Menai Bridge, a detailed plan for handling the King’s death. A similar situation occurred in the cases of Queen Elizabeth II (Operation London Bridge) and Prince Philip (Forth Bridge).

According to Radar Online, in light of the current health situation, the monarchy's representatives have updated the plan's details, adding to the anxiety among Britons.

King Charles is the third member of the royal family to be diagnosed with cancer. This year, Duchess Kate and Sarah Ferguson were also diagnosed with the disease. The former wife of Prince Andrew is fighting melanoma, a malignant skin cancer.
