King Charles III has cancer. The BBC reports this, a few days after the prostate operation undergone by the 75-year-old British sovereign.

«It is not prostate cancer – we read on the website of the main English broadcaster -, but the tumor was discovered during his recent treatment for an enlarged prostate».

The type of cancer the sovereign suffers from has not been revealed, but according to a statement from the palace the king began regular treatment on Monday.

Furthermore, the BBC reports: «Buckingham Palace said that the king “faces the treatment he is subjected to positively and looks forward to returning to full public service as soon as possible”. However, he will postpone his public commitments and it is expected that other royals will replace him throughout the duration of his treatment."
