King Charles was seen for the first time since the Palace revealed he will be hospitalized next week for an enlarged prostate.

King Charles, 75, will be admitted to hospital next week for surgery. Charles was captured by photographers leaving Birkhall, his private home near Balmoral, Aberdeenshire.

Today, Friday 19 January 2024, was the first time the monarch had been seen since Buckingham Palace’s shock announcement. Queen Camilla sat at the front of the vehicle.

It is worth noting that the Princess of Wales was also admitted to a hospital for surgery due to a problem in the abdomen, while yesterday it became known that her husband, Prince William, visited her in the clinic.

Meanwhile, and royal wife Camilla announced that King Charles is in good health, just hours after the monarch announced he was to undergo surgery for an enlarged prostate. During a visit to Aberdeen on Thursday morning, Queen Camilla was asked about the king and replied: “It’s fine, thank you very much. He can’t wait to get back to work.”.
