After battling an unspecified cancer, King Charles III has resumed his royal duties, marking his return with a visit to a cancer treatment center in London, as reported by CNN. Accompanied by Queen Camilla, the 75-year-old monarch interacted with patients and clinicians, receiving a warm welcome from well-wishers.
Queen Camilla, an advocate for cancer care through her work with Maggie’s, supported King Charles during the visit. King Charles, a patron of Macmillan Cancer Support for nearly three decades, has focused on raising awareness about early cancer detection and research, a cause underscored by his recent health challenges.

In a significant development, King Charles was announced as the new patron of Cancer Research UK. He met with the organization’s chief clinician, Charlie Swanton, to discuss innovative projects like TRACERx, which focuses on lung cancer research.
Buckingham Palace described King Charles’ return to public engagements as a positive step, noting that upcoming activities would be carefully managed to support his health.
Details about his full schedule remain limited, but it is confirmed that he will host Japan’s Emperor and Empress for a state visit later this month. His participation in other major events, including his birthday parade and the D-Day 80th anniversary commemorations, is still to be determined.
