King Charles has given a major update concerning his cancer battle.
In a video posted on YouTube by The Royal Family and Channel 4, King Charles provided an update on his cancer diagnosis and offered encouragement to others facing the health issue for the 2025 Stand Up to Cancer campaign.
“Today, I am able to share with you the good news that, thanks to early diagnosis, effective intervention and adherence to doctor’s orders, my own schedule of cancer treatment can be reduced in the new year,” Charles stated.
“This milestone is both a personal blessing and a testimony to the remarkable advances that have been made in cancer care in recent years,” he continued.
Charles then noted that compassion in the middle of a struggle often makes a difference in the world around us.
“As I have observed before, the darkest moments of illness can be illuminated by the greatest compassion. But compassion must be paired with action. This December, as we gather to reflect on the year past, I pray that we could each pledge as part of our resolutions for the year ahead to play our part in helping to catch cancer early,” he said. “Your life or the life of someone you love may depend upon it. Therefore, this brings my most heartfelt thanks to the doctors, nurses, researchers and charity workers involved in diagnosis and treatment programs, together with my particular good wishes to those for whom they care so selflessly.”
The king also asked for people to join him “in finding a special place in your hearts and your minds and prayers for the hundreds of thousands of people across our United Kingdom who receive a cancer diagnosis each year…”
This latest update comes after Charles was diagnosed with cancer in 2024.
