King Charles III, who is currently being treated for cancer, attended a mass in the Church of St. Mary Magdalene at the Royal Sandringham Palace (eastern England), on Sunday.
The king, who was accompanied by his wife Camilla, waved his hand in front of journalists present at the scene. This is the king’s second public appearance since he announced that he had cancer a few days ago.
On Tuesday, Charles was seen leaving his residence in Clarence House in London in a car with Queen Camilla, after meeting his youngest son, Prince Harry, who came from the United States, where he has lived since 2020, to visit his father after news of his illness spread.
On Tuesday, Charles moved with his wife, Queen Camilla, to the country residence in Sandringham, eastern England.
The King of Britain will be absent from public life for an indefinite period, but he will continue to carry out some of his administrative duties.
Less than a year and a half after his mother, Elizabeth II, succeeded to the throne of Britain and 9 months after his coronation, the king began treatment after announcing that he had been diagnosed with cancer, the type of which was not revealed.
Charles’ disease was discovered during a recent medical intervention to treat prostate enlargement, but he does not suffer from prostate cancer.
On Saturday, the King extended his “sincere thanks” to all those who sent him messages of support, in his first statement issued since he was diagnosed with cancer.
“As anyone with cancer knows, kind thoughts like these provide the greatest comfort and encouragement,” the 75-year-old king said.
