King Charles has released a deeply emotional statement following his recent hospitalization, just as the world reels from a devastating earthquake in Myanmar.
On Saturday, March 29, the British monarch took to the official Instagram Story of the Royal Family to express his sorrow over the disaster, which claimed thousands of lives and caused widespread destruction. The king’s message, issued alongside Queen Camilla, reflected his heartbreak over the tragic loss.
“We were dreadfully shocked and saddened to learn of the devastating earthquake in Myanmar,” King Charles wrote, mourning the deaths and destruction caused by the disaster.
He acknowledged the immense hardship the people of Myanmar continue to face and praised their “extraordinary resilience and spirit.”
The royal couple extended their deepest sympathies to the victims, offering prayers for those affected by the deadly earthquake. “At this most difficult and heartbreaking of times, my wife and I send our deepest possible sympathy to all those who have suffered the profound tragedy of losing their loved ones, their homes, and their precious livelihoods,” the king added.
His moving statement comes just days after the 76-year-old monarch was rushed to the hospital due to side effects from his ongoing cancer treatment. The incident forced him to cancel several engagements, raising concerns about his health.
Professor Karol Sikora, a leading oncologist, reassured the public that the king is “fine” following his brief hospitalization. Speaking to GB News, the medical expert explained that such health scares are common for cancer patients undergoing treatment, suggesting that Charles’ recent setback was not unusual.
Despite the positive update, Buckingham Palace remains cautious about the king’s schedule, with several upcoming engagements now in question.
