The British king, who is still being treated for his cancer but is gradually resuming his public activities, made a trip this Thursday, May 9 to a military barracks in Surrey, southwest of London.
Humor as a remedy? King Charles III, who has resumed his public activities since the end of April after the announcement of his cancer, joked this Thursday, May 9 during a trip to a military barracks in Surrey, southwest of London .
“I apologize for taking you by surprise, when this opportunity presented itself and I was allowed out of my cage, I wanted to come and see,” declared the British sovereign, a scene relayed by Sky News.
First solo engagement since his cancer
Absent for almost three months because of his cancer, the nature of which was never communicated, King Charles III was able to resume his commitments, his doctors judging that the progress in his state of health was “very encouraging”.
Buckingham Palace had, however, indicated that the king’s first trips would be “carefully calibrated” and carried out “in close consultation with his doctors”.
This Thursday, May 9, is his first trip without the presence of Queen Camilla or another member of the royal family. The day before, the royal couple organized the first garden party of the year in Buckingham while Prince Harry was in London at the same time for the Invictus Games. However, the father and son did not meet for reasons of the king’s agenda, according to a spokesperson for Prince Harry.
