British media report that Charles III is “doing well” after prostate surgery.

At the moment, there have been no official communications from Buckingham Palace. But the British media assures us that Charles III is “doing well.” On Friday morning, the king was admitted to a London clinic for prostate surgery.

Queen Camilla left the London clinic in the middle of the day, where the 75-year-old king arrived with her in the morning for the procedure, announced by Buckingham Palace last week. Smiling, she made no statement. British media reported that he was “feeling well.”

The London Clinic is an elite private hospital in the prestigious Marylebone area, where Prince Philip, as well as American President John F. Kennedy and actress Elizabeth Taylor, were treated in the past.

Kate Middleton is still recovering

The luxury wellness establishment is currently hosting Kate Middleton. The Princess of Wales is recovering there after undergoing abdominal surgery a few days earlier. The mother of three is expected to be hospitalized for a total of 14 days, which is considered a relatively long period.

The pathology from which she suffers has not been identified. The services of the princely couple assured that their operation was “successful” and demanded that their privacy be respected, demanding that “the confidentiality of their personal medical information be maintained.” The only information that the monarchy allowed itself was that it was not cancer. Prince William has cleared his diary as she recovers from surgery.

According to British media reports, the king visited his daughter-in-law before prostate surgery. Charles III, for his part, will have to observe a “short period” of recovery, the duration of which is not specified. Buckingham Palace announced in a press release Friday morning the king’s hospitalization, a clear break from the past when the royal family’s health was shrouded in secrecy.

“Her Majesty would like to thank everyone who sent her their wishes over the past week and is pleased to learn that her diagnosis is having a positive impact in raising awareness of public health issues,” the palace said on Friday.

The announcement last week of his diagnosis prompted a surge in visits to the condition’s page on the website of the NHS, Britain’s public health system.

Rishi Sunak wishes the King a ‘speedy recovery’

Charles III, who succeeds Elizabeth II in September 2022, usually has a very busy schedule. He canceled several public events last week to rest. He returned to London on Thursday afternoon after spending several days at his residence in Sandringham, eastern England.

Queen Camilla then reassured, assuring that her husband was “all right” and that he was “hurrying to get back to work.” The palace insisted the routine nature of the procedure, which affects “thousands of men” every year.

Apart from a few polo injuries and a skiing accident that nearly cost him his life in 1998, Charles III was generally healthy throughout his life. British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak wished him a “speedy recovery” on Friday.

And if the King and Princess Kate’s health problems weren’t enough, Prince Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, who had already recently had surgery for breast cancer, announced on Sunday that she was suffering from “malignant melanoma”, a skin cancer. .
