King Charles III Undergoing ‘Cutting-Edge’ Treatment for Cancer, Royal Editor Claims
More than two years after King Charles III revealed he was battling an undisclosed form of cancer, new details about his secret treatment are fueling fresh hope inside palace circles. During an April 30 appearance on the Daily Beast podcast — the final day of Charles and Queen Camilla‘s jam-packed four-day U.S. visit — royal editor Tom Sykes revealed the 77-year-old monarch has been receiving “an incredibly novel and very, very expensive combination of immunotherapy and RNA drugs — absolutely cutting-edge experimental stuff.”
Doctors are “incredibly impressed at how the treatment has worked,” Sykes said, adding there’s now “a great deal of optimism” Charles “can carry on for many, many years hence.” The news comes after the king powered through a grueling schedule looking “energized,” according to Sykes. But as Star has previously reported, tensions inside the royal family remain unresolved. Charles and Prince William remain divided over Harry, with the king quietly favoring reconciliation while William continues to take a harder line.
