King Charles has been battling cancer since early 2024, but he clearly hasn't let his health struggles stop his sense of humor. On Wednesday, November 5, The King visited Chatfield Health Care in London to learn about the special services they provide for veterans. During his visit, timed ahead of the Royal Family's Remembrance Day events this weekend, His Majesty joked about the metal in his body while speaking to a man recovering from arm fractures.
The King spoke with David Wiggins, who broke his wrist and elbow after falling off his bike and needed to get metal plates in arm. "Are they keeping that under control? I'm so glad," The King said, via Hello!. He added, "I've got endless plates and screws in my arm as well. All that's left of you when you drop dead is 'Made in Switzerland.'"
