King Charles funeral plans being ‘updated’ after cancer scare

King Charles III’s health is reportedly causing concern for the Palace and his friends as he continued to battle an undisclosed type of cancer.

KING CHARLES FUNERAL PLANS BEING ‘UPDATED’

Tom Sykes of the Daily Beast reported that when speaking to friends of the King, the most common response is that Charles is not doing well.

“Speaking to friends of the king in recent weeks about his health, the most common response is … ‘It’s not good,” according to Daily Beast.

A friend of Charles says he “is determined to beat it and they are throwing everything at it. Everyone is staying optimistic, but he is really very unwell. More than they are letting on.”

Sykes also reported “Operation Menai Bridge” – the plans in the case of King Charles’ death are currently being reviewed. Page Six reports that All the sources emphasised that royal funeral plans are constantly in review. However, a former staff member conceded that Charles’ health has given the plans a different sense of urgency.

“The plans have been dusted off and are actively being kept up to date. It’s no more than what you would expect given the king has been diagnosed with cancer. But the circulation of them has certainly focused minds,” said the staff member according to Page Six.

THE KING RESUMES ROYAL DUTIES

This comes after Buckingham Palace announced that King Charles will return to public duties on Tuesday 30 April. The palace announced via a tweet on Friday 26 April. To mark his first official duty, Charles III will be accompanied by his wife, Queen Camilla as he visits a cancer treatment centre.
