“The greatest consolation’: King Charles thanks for support after cancer diagnosis. “I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the many messages of support and good wishes I have received over the last few days,” he said.

Buckingham Palace announced on Monday that Charles had been diagnosed with cancer. The 75-year-old monarch is currently said to be staying at his country estate Sandringham in the eastern English county of Norfolk. He has been the British monarch for more than a year.
