After learning of his disease, King Charles has traveled to the royal estate of Sandringham to receive additional care and rest away from the public glare.

It was only revealed last week that the 75-year-old king had been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate after undergoing surgery.

Although Buckingham Palace has made clear that Charles’ disease is not prostate cancer, details about its form and stage are still unknown to the general public.

Typical of the Royal Family, there isn’t much information available about Charles’ health issues. But on Tuesday Prince Harry went back to the UK for a secret meeting with his father, their first in-person meeting since Queen Elizabeth’s death. The King is said to have personally told his closest family members of his diagnosis.

Charles and Queen Camilla made their first public appearance since the cancer news when they were seen leaving Clarence House in London by helicopter headed for Norfolk earlier this week.

According to sources, Charles and Harry spoke on Tuesday afternoon before the helicopter landed at the royal Sandringham estate, which is usually the Royal Family’s Christmas getaway.

He is said to be in high spirits and to have started treatment for his cancer.

Still, there’s rumour that Charles would reduce his public appearances and official responsibilities while undergoing treatment.

Robert Hardman is the author of Charles III: New King. Contemporary Court. The Inside Story said on the Today programme on BBC Radio 4: “I would think we probably won’t see him at Westminster Abbey now… Daily operations of the monarchy won’t be much affected.

Even with promises from Buckingham Palace, new reports have caused some worry.

According to medical professionals reported by Radar Online, Charles might have cancer close to his prostate that could harm his lung, stomach, or liver.

“You die with prostate cancer, not of it, according to most current studies,” said New York internist Dr. Stuart Fischer. If the cancer is detected in the liver and lungs, his life expectancy—if he is lucky—will be a few years.

Nevertheless, we want King Charles a speedy recovery and offer our support at this trying time.
