Today was already going to be an emotionally loaded one for perhaps another reason—Prince William was officially named the Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps, a role that was expected to go to Prince Harry had he not stepped back as a working member of the royal family in 2020.

But while at the Army Aviation Centre in Middle Wallop, Hampshire, to officially confer the duties onto William, King Charles had an emotional chat about cancer treatment with a veteran, where he gave a glimpse into his treatment, The Sun reports. (After a routine prostate procedure in late January, the King announced that he had been diagnosed with cancer on February 5, the same day he began treatment; it’s unknown what specific type or stage of cancer he has been diagnosed with.)
