Royal experts reveal that despite appearances, King Charles III remains gravely ill, with palace preparations for his funeral already in progress. The 75-year-old monarch, who has been battling cancer since early 2024, continues to struggle despite his return to public duties. “His appearances have become shorter, and he often requires rest immediately afterward,” insiders report.

Following Queen Elizabeth II’s death in 2022, Charles ascended to the throne, but his reign has been marred by health issues. In February 2024, Charles acknowledged the support he received during his illness, emphasizing the importance of cancer awareness.

Prince William has taken on more royal duties, with Charles involving him in key decisions as he assumes a more prominent role. Amid this, the palace has quietly accelerated plans under “Operation Menai Bridge,” named after a suspension bridge in Wales, which outlines procedures for the king’s passing.

An insider admitted that while the palace presents an image of recovery, “Charles’s condition is more serious than the public has been led to believe.” Preparations for a funeral befitting a monarch are underway, ensuring that the king’s wishes are honored and the transition of power is smooth.
