King Charles has been admitted to the hospital after experiencing side effects from his ongoing cancer treatment, Buckingham Palace confirmed.
According to Reuters, the 76-year-old monarch was briefly hospitalized on Thursday, March 27, 2025, for medical observation.
A palace insider revealed that Charles required “a short period of observation in hospital” after returning to Clarence House from his visit to Northern Ireland with Queen Camilla.
Due to concerns over his health, the King has canceled his public engagements scheduled for Friday. The nature of his symptoms remains undisclosed, as Buckingham Palace has refrained from providing details about his condition.
Charles publicly revealed his cancer diagnosis in February 2024 after undergoing surgery for an enlarged prostate.
While the exact type of cancer has not been disclosed, the Palace assured the public that it is unrelated to prostate cancer. Since then, the King has undergone treatment while maintaining an active royal schedule.
Despite his illness, King Charles has continued to carry out key royal duties. In recent months, he has welcomed global leaders, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and even visited the Royal Navy’s aircraft carrier, H.M.S. Prince of Wales. His resilience has reassured the public and royal observers of his commitment to his role.

However, his latest hospitalization raises concerns about his long-term health and ability to sustain an active schedule.
As speculation grows over the severity of his condition, royal watchers await further updates from Buckingham Palace.
Meanwhile, questions remain about the King’s upcoming diplomatic visit to Italy. The trip, planned alongside Queen Camilla, was already delayed once due to Pope Francis’ own health concerns. Now, with the King’s hospitalization, there is uncertainty over whether the visit will proceed as planned.
The British public has been closely following King Charles’ health journey, and his recent hospitalization is likely to fuel further concerns about the future of the monarchy.
With Prince William gradually taking on more responsibilities and Queen Camilla by his side, the royal family faces a challenging period ahead.
For now, the Palace has not issued any new updates on the King’s condition, leaving the world waiting anxiously for further news on the health of Britain’s reigning monarch.
