Buckingham Palace has already announced King Charles’ health condition, which states that he will be heading forward to the hospital next week to get treated for an enlarged prostate. Following that, Queen Camilla came forward to continue the royal duty by giving a quick health update on her husband during an outing.
The day after the palace announced the king’s ‘corrective procedure’ for the benign condition next week, On Thursday morning, the Queen paid a visit to the Aberdeen Art Gallery in Aberdeen, Scotland.
In a video shared by ITV royal’s reporter Chris Ship on X, Queen Camilla said, “Good morning; it was quite a frosty journey. Sorry, we’re a bit late; I am afraid,” was the smile on her face as she arrived. In the presence of Queen Camilla, lord lieutenant of Aberdeen, David Cameron asked, “How’s his majesty?” and the Queen replied, “He’s fine, thank you very much. Looking forward to getting back to work.”.
Further in her statement, Queen Camilla said, “In common with thousands of men each year, the King has sought treatment for an enlarged prostate.” The queen in her statement also mentioned that his majesty’s condition is benign, and he will attend the hospital in the upcoming week for a corrective procedure. It also added that “the King’s public engagement will be postponed for a short period of recuperation.”
The Majesty coming out with all the details portrays that the King wants to share his diagnosis so that he can encourage the men in society who may be experiencing the same symptoms and need to be checked. A source from the royals says that King Charles, during this time, will be capable of fulfilling his constitutional requirements and duties.
At the same Art Gallery, Queen Camera has also opened a new ‘Safe Space’ that helps provide guidance to people if they have been under domestic violence or if they suspect someone else is living in it. The queen has been seen as a supportive system for the victims of rape, domestic violence, and sexual abuse for a long time as a priority of her public work.
This outing of the queen camera marks her first public engagement since the moment the palace announced the news about her husband’s health on Wednesday that King Charles has been seeking treatment for an enlarged prostate.
The recent time when King Charles and Queen Camilla were spotted with each other was on Sunday, as they were photographed driving together to Crathie Kirk near the royal residence of Balmoral. The place holds special importance for the Royal Family as the church is their go-to while being at the Scotland Castle, where the royal family traditionally spends their summer and also where Queen Elizabeth died in 2022.
The King’s health news came after Princess Kate’s ‘planned abdominal surgery’ on Tuesday, who is more likely not to return to her royal duties until Easter. The Kensington Palace announced that the surgery was a success, and Prince William has also postponed his engagements to spend as much time as possible with his wife at the hospital for 10 to 14 days.
The Princess of Wales was admitted at the London Clinic this week for her ‘planned surgery’ and is expected to remain there for 10 to 14 days before returning home to continue her recovery.
Kate Middleton has also shown her interest in the appreciation generated by the statement where the Princess of Wales shared that she hopes the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible and her wish to keep her personal medical information private.
