King Charles gives major credit for his health progress to Queen Camilla

King Charles paid Queen Camilla a major part of his recovery progress by releasing a sweet new photo of him looking affectionately at his wife as he announced his return to public royal duties.

A touching image of the couple linking arms has been released after it was revealed doctors were “delighted” with his progress following “positive” cancer treatment.

The photo was taken in the gardens of Buckingham Palace a day after celebrating their 19th wedding anniversary.

It reflects his incredible progress since his cancer shock earlier this year and was released to mark the anniversary of his coronation.

Despite the welcome news, sources stressed that the king still has cancer and will continue to receive treatment for an unknown form of the disease.

Speaking about how long Her Majesty’s treatment is expected to continue, Buckingham Palace revealed: “It is too early to say…” They added: “Her Majesty’s medical team is very encouraged by the progress made so far And remains positive about the king’s continued recovery.”

He said this additional workload will begin while he is still undergoing cancer treatment. He said: “His Majesty’s treatment program will continue, but doctors are pleased enough with the progress so far that the King is now able to resume many public-facing duties.”

He added that any upcoming events would be adapted “to minimize any risk to Her Majesty’s continued recovery”. The 75-year-old workaholic monarch’s public engagements will begin next Tuesday.

An official statement regarding the king’s return to “public-facing responsibilities” was released on Friday afternoon. It said: “His Majesty the King will return to public-facing duties shortly after a period of treatment and recovery following his recent cancer diagnosis.”

The King and Queen will visit a cancer treatment center together “to mark this milestone,” he said. The center is not included in Her Majesty’s care.

There they will meet with medical experts and patients to highlight the importance of early diagnosis. They also want to showcase the innovative research being carried out by Cancer Research UK there.”

The Palace described how both the King and Queen were “deeply grateful” for the well wishes they had received. “As the first anniversary of her coronation approaches, Her Majesty is deeply grateful for the many kindnesses and well wishes she has received from around the world during the joys and challenges of the past year,” he said.
