King Charles III recently revealed that he had lost one of his senses due to cancer treatment. This became known during a public speech dedicated to the official transfer of powers to Prince William.
On May 13, 2024, King Charles III admitted that he had lost one of his feelings. This became known during a conversation with British Army veteran Aaron Mapplebeck at the Army Aviation Museum in Middle Wallop, Hampshire.
Aaron, who underwent chemotherapy for testicular cancer last year, shared his experience with the king. He stressed that his sense of taste had deteriorated due to the treatment. It was during this conversation that King Charles became sympathetic to Aaron. He mentioned that he had experienced the same side effect himself.
It was the first time the monarch had acknowledged the results of his treatment since he was diagnosed with cancer. Details about the type of cancer King Charles has and the nature of his treatment remain unknown. Buckingham Palace did not provide any additional information other than confirmation of the king’s health problem.
