King Charles 'in good spirits' ahead of treatment for 'benign' prostate condition

King Charles after attending the Christmas Day service on December 25, 2023.

King Charles will visit hospital for treatment for an enlarged prostate, Buckingham Palace has announced, as it’s said the monarch is in “good spirits”.

King Charles will be visiting hospital this month as he is set to receive treatment for an “enlarged prostate”. In a statement released on 18th January, Buckingham Palace confirmed that the King’s condition is “benign” and that he will undergo a “corrective procedure” next week. It’s not been confirmed by the Palace what the exact procedure is, however, the statement does reiterate that King Charles seeking treatment for an enlarged prostate is something very “common” for men.
