Buckingham Palace released today a startling announcement: King Charles III has been diagnosed with cancer and is currently undergoing treatment. The malignancy was discovered while he was treated a few days ago for an enlarged prostate.
While the official text doesn't give many details, it does make a point of clarifying that the cancer has nothing to do with the prostate and adding that the King "remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible."
