In a poignant moment for the British monarchy, King Charles made his way back to London this morning, accompanied by Queen Camilla.
After spending a week at his beloved Sandringham estate, the King touched down at Clarence House just after 10:30 AM, marking a significant return as he begins his cancer treatment.
The couple was spotted during a brief drive from Buckingham Palace to their residence.
King Charles, dressed sharply in a suit, waved to onlookers from the back of his stately Bentley.
Meanwhile, Queen Camilla sat beside him, shielded from the drizzly weather by a black raincoat.
Their journey covered less than half a mile but was filled with the warmth of public support.
This return comes just a week after Buckingham Palace publicly acknowledged the King’s cancer diagnosis.
Following surgery for a benign enlarged prostate, it was clarified that the malignancy is not prostate cancer, although details about the specific type of cancer have not been disclosed.
The King had visited an unnamed hospital last Monday and returned to Sandringham on Tuesday after a brief meeting with his son, Prince Harry.
Despite postponing all public engagements, King Charles continues to fulfill his royal duties.
Each day, he reviews his red boxes filled with official documents and maintains his weekly phone call with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
This dedication to his responsibilities showcases his commitment even in challenging times.
Queen Camilla has been vocal about her husband’s health, stating last week that he is doing remarkably well given the circumstances.
She expressed how deeply touched the King has been by the outpouring of condolence letters from the public, reflecting the strong connection he shares with the people.
On Sunday, the royal couple was seen attending church on their private Norfolk estate, a tradition they cherish.
