King Charles Express Hope to ‘Live Long Enough’ After Recent Hospitalization. The King, who has been undergoing cancer treatment since his diagnosis in early 2024, is currently on a four-day tour of Italy with his wife, Queen Camilla.
During the state visit, King Charles made a joke about his health while planting a tree in the Villa Volkonsky gardens in Rome.
The viral video shows Charles jokingly saying, “Well, I hope I can see a little bit of growth in the tree,” as he plans the tree.
Notably, this candid moment comes just weeks after Charles was admitted to hospital due to side effects from ongoing cancer treatment. The sudden hospitalisation has led to the cancellation of all his royal engagements.
Buckingham Palace released a statement that read, “Following scheduled and ongoing medical treatment for cancer this morning, The Monarch has experienced temporary side effects which required a short period of observation in hospital.”
“His Majesty’s afternoon engagements have therefore been postponed. As a precautionary measure, tomorrow (Friday)’s diary programme will also be rearranged, in line with medical advice,” it added.
