Monarch says he's "on the better side" of treatment following son's emotional remarks
King Charles III has given a rare and uplifting update on his health, signalling progress in his cancer treatment shortly after Prince Harry publicly voiced concerns about his father’s wellbeing.
During a recent visit to Impact Hub Yorkshire as part of his headline-making trip to Bradford with Queen Camilla, the King shared a light-hearted moment with local florist Safeena Khan. When she inquired about his health, Charles offered a thumbs-up and replied, “I’d like to think I’m on the better side [of my cancer journey],” according to PA Media.
The monarch’s candid response comes on the heels of Prince Harry’s controversial BBC interview, where the Duke of Sussex remarked, “I don’t know how much longer my father has,” expressing a desire for reconciliation but revealing ongoing estrangement.
In a separate appearance at the Buckingham Palace Education and Skills Garden Party, King Charles also emphasised the role of a healthy diet in aiding cancer recovery, offering additional insight into his personal approach to treatment.
The King's reassuring words appear to offer a direct contrast to Harry’s recent comments, providing hope to royal supporters and suggesting continued resilience amid his ongoing health challenges.
