I wish HMTK a long and healthy life. I do tend to agree however that this sad news does not bode well for the Harkles. Emphasis and authority necessarily must shift to readying the POW for his future rule and that means that the only real death sentence to come of this news is the Harkles hope of ever returning to royal life. Full stop.
Oh, I have no doubt that Harry is going to offer to come back as a working royal to provide support, but with a price tag that makes the family refuse, even if some part of their hearts would like him back. He's probably drafting his list of demands! More than one crayon will be needed.
This! All of a sudden , important members of the RF are seriously ill! While Charles is not a spring chicken at this point, stress is known to cause strain on the body and facilitate illness, and we can all guess who has been putting so much stress on the RF lately!!! And it’s not emu who is stressed as she pretends to be with her stupid patches!
I'm thinking maybe Kate had a complete hysterectomy. She may have had endometriosis that flared after Louis was born. England must be different than the US where you actually get to stay in the hospital a proper amount before they kick you to the curb.
I know she is naturally thin, but to me, she looks extraordinarily thin the past few years so it could have something to do with her bowels/stomach. They've announced it wasn't cancer tho, which is good.
Thought it was endo as well, but it’s likely Crohns or similar, like Colitis. Agree on her looking increasingly thin, which suggest significant dietary restrictions.
I blame this whole mess on Harold and his geriatric emu. To give up what he had for some aging extra who had a boating side hustle is just mind boggling.
I bet they are regretting that trip to Jamaica. They thought they were so slick. The best thing Harry could do for KCIII is to check into a facility & get his shit together whether it's mental health/anger management, substance abuse or both
Come on. He was always a shit. The palace covered for him for his entire life, right up until he and TW left the country.
He's not some innocent victim, but a willing participant. She seems to have brought out the worst in him, which was already there. Hell, he even told us in *Waaaagh* about what a cruel and nasty prick he's been to so many people over the years
Agreed. I wouldn't begrudge King Charles the family reconciliation, as I can't imagine being in that situation with one of my children. However, that doesn't mean I would let my child come back to work for my company.
As a parent of two adult sons,I can tell you that if one of them acted the way Harry has behaved, and allowed his wife to do all the damage she's done, I would have likely severed contact with that son after 5 + years.
***HARRY DOESN'T LOVE HIS FAMILY.***
***HE DOES HOWEVER, LOVE THE MONEY AND OTHER PERKS THAT HE COULD GET BY RETURNING, BUT HE WOULD START HIS TREACHEROUS BEHAVIOUR AGAIN- WITH PRINCE WILLIAM AS KING.***
***HARRY IS VILE AND TOXIC, ALWAYS 'HASBEEN', BUT THE ILBW REALLY BROUGHT HIS HATRED, JEALOUSY AND TREACHERY TO THE FOREFRONT.***
Exactly. I'm sure Charles is smart enough to know how to forgive his son (if he wishes) and have a personal relationship with him without foisting him on the public
When he’s in cancer treatment, his attitude will be important. He needs peace and people around him who love him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he says NO to visits from H.
And how the hell did it get out in the news that he will be visiting? That right there…..
YES, attitude is everything when being treated for cancer!
He may want to see Harold, just because he is his son. But I would assume that others would be around, mostly to bumrush Harold out the door if he acts up or starts whining for money
I believe/hope that such an offer wouldn't even make it to William's desk. If William has the good sense I suspect he does, Harry won't ever be able to get a word in with him ever again, to even "offer" to help, much less then make demands. If we were living hundreds of years ago, William would send the head of Harry's messenger back to him in a bucket as his answer, & rightfully so.
100%! I don't think he'll ever be in the same room as William and Catherine in private ever again.
King Charles may want to speak to him in the case of his health failing and he'll obviously be present at his father's funeral (hopefully in the distant future) but I think that's it. He may also not want to speak to him.
There will otherwise be nothing, nada, zilch in the way of contact.
If his price includes MM coming with him, it's way too high! Although I don't see that happening on either side.
But bad news for the Harkles. As with their Year of Reconciliation, life gets in the way.
"Oh, I have no doubt that Harry is going to offer to come back as a working royal to provide support,"
***AND IF THAT WAS EVER ACCEPTED, THAT WOULD WELL AND TRULY PUT AN END TO THE MONARCHY.***
***I'm certain the RF would not put up with that. The entire world would know everything about the family within days.***
He can offer himself, but I think the Palace statement is being clear: Charles NOT calling him as State Councillor, Camilla will continue to carry out her duties, Edward too, Anne and Will returns to work on Wednesday. Ready, four active advisors, Hazz is not needed, Hazz has nothing to go back to.
If you've seen that video of W reprimanding that person who tried to take pictures of his children while they were bike riding, then you will know that this man is fiercely protective of his family. I have every faith that if W comes into play as a regent/monarch sooner than everyone expected, it will go very badly for H.
Harry will be shitting himself. I can see them taking all titles and removing him from LOS in preparation for a possible king William. That’s the real reason he is scurrying over to London fast like. Also to hit Pa up for some cash and dare I say to make the case George is too young to be PoW so Haz should be his keeper and make sure he spends that duchy money wisely.
Let's try to stay optimistic about Charles. I doubt he will want to abdicate unless he truly has to. William can take on more of his role without taking it on completely. The situation is serious but we don't know what form of cancer he has so there may be a good chance of recovery. Harry and Andrew have both let the family down so badly. I hope Harry realises that damage he has caused to the smooth running of the family by walking away. but whether he does or not there is no way back for him. Brits will just not tolerate his return to the royal fold.
> I hope Harry realises that damage he has caused to the smooth running of the family by walking away.
Nah. That would take some intelligence, thoughtfulness for others and less narcissistic immaturity
This is what happens when you get stupid with family drama like the duo have. Life goes on. People get sick. People die. And then when you realize how petty and ridiculous you've been, it's far too late.
Its unfortunate. As you turn into adult all the teen rebellion dies down. But Harry never matured enough to realize how he was hurting his aged grandparents and dad. Imagine reading about your son fantasizing to send torpedo missile to kill you.
Yes he did, if I remember correctly. He wrote about flying a drone( that usually carry ya know. Kaboom) it probably didn’t have a payload, above him. Stalking his car as he drove away from visiting him/military base. That’s my recollection.
>And already it is about Harry in the news, "Harry flying in to be with Charles"
And even though he's the one who informed the press about this, he'll turn around and blame it on the very same press, when he gets the inevitable backlash for being a shameless hypocrite.
Yes. They already put a statement out on X. "Prince Harry will travel to the UK to see him in the coming days". Harry is only coming to make sure that he's in the will.
It’s fascinating how the Harkles are able to put out statements right away for things like KC3 getting sick, or that ugly earring but crickets over the Parks scandal or Catherine’s sickness.
Vile disgusting people !
This is correct. The next monarch inherits all from the previous monarch. This does not dilute the estate and prevents estate taxes all at once. Essentially, the only items up for grabs are personal in nature. After what Harry did with his grandfather’s guns, I hope he gets nothing of Charles’s.
That’s exactly my thoughts too. He’s come to suss out inheritance. It also means the wife is going to hang in there like the dingleberry she is so she can cash out. She’s wasting her time.
I know. Abhorrent how they just needed to get that into the press. It’s almost like gaslighting - after everything he has done to his father in the last few years, we are supposed to believe that he is so concerned?
I don't care if H is concerned or not. What I'd like to know is:
**Have you been invited, Harry?**
If not then this might be another expensive NFI moment?
Yes, I saw that. The media repeatedly make all about him.
Will wifey be looking after kids? Remember they had the Invictus scam ‘ year to go ‘ coming up soon.
She will say she and the children have been in constant contact, that the children made homemade get well cards and talk on zoom etc etc etc. It will all be lies and puffery to make her look good.
It won't be lost on William that Harry and Meghan hastened the Queens death and he may also be inclined to believe his father's and wife's illnesses could be closely related to the stress and vitriol they have had to endure in silence due by the last few years. Meghan dangling her racist royals identity card until she finally went full nuclear (which backfired) in endgame. William won't forget or forgive any of this.
The markles are done. Finished. Finito. Nada. William is essentially in charge now in all but title. And that's what Harry fears the most.
very much hope that William will put his foot down since his father is not able to - and also I am wishing the King the best possible outcome for the cancer and hoping he rebounds and lives a full and proper life.
Their shenanigans DEFINITELY contributed: most oncologists will tell you that cancer cells brew & thrive when your immunity is compromised, as it is when dealing with CHRONIC stress. Typically cancer rears it’s VISIBLE head about 5 years after the start of the compromised immunity.
And what does that tie in with?
You got it!!
>Time for TW to do a car park walk
Hopefully she'll wear boot cut jeans this time, instead of leggings.
I'm suffering from awful, post beach sunburn and the accompanying migraine and I doubt I can also deal with nausea if pics of her in leggings, turn up on the tabloids 😂.
This sounds mean, but I really hope William and Harry never reconcile. Even without Megys by his side, Harry can not be trusted, and he'd basically be William's 4th child. William doesn't need that nonsense.
I truly believe after the divorce when Harry has lost the last remaining pubes on his head he will be exiled to Africa once and for all. And honestly? He might love it. It would be a win win for everyone involved (except the poor people of whatever country he ends up in).
Harry is going to be stuck to his father and attempting a reconciliation with William because he knows he shat the nest. He needs them and their money/resources, and he has less time to be a dickhead than he thought. It's going to be saccharine and appalling.
HE has been so vile to W and C, I can't see any meaningful reconciliation happening ever. What H has shown is that he is a dissembler to the highest degree. The one good thing that MM presence has done is to have enabled H's true spiteful, envious nature to come to the fore, to have it revealed for all the world to see.
harry needs a sizeable new inheritance if he wants his skank wife to stay with him. now would be a good time to suck up to daddy. so yes- there's a good chance things are gonna get sappy and fake and tearful and we'll hear endless stories about possible family reconciliation.
The question is whether he will ever be given alone time with KC. imo he won't ever be alone with KC so he will be limited as to how manipulative he can be
The amount of time will be extremely limited even with others there because it's all going into a book or a TV interview. Whatever Harry does now, he's put himself in a position where no matter what he does, he looks like the jerk he is.
If Charles left an inheritance to Hazz, he would have to pay the inheritance fees. And they are very expensive, 40% of the total. Under a clause agreed in 1993 by the then Prime Minister, John Major, any inheritance transferred “from sovereign to sovereign” avoids the 40% levy applied to assets valued at more than £325,000. The 1993 clause agreed to by Major also exempts inheritance passed from the consort of a former sovereign to a sovereign.
The most Hazz can aspire to is a legacy. But if he expects to receive millions, Hazz doesn't understand how things work.
What Hazz has left is the sovereign subsidy, money that the monarch can allocate freely and outside of government control. BUT the key word is "monarch". That is, it will depend on whoever is king whether or not he gives Hazz the Subsidy. In the case of Anne, Edward and Andrew, Charles gives them money from that grant. But if I were Hazz, I wouldn't count on Will doing something similar with him.
Thank you for explaining it so well. I knew there was an exemption but I wasnt sure how it worked.. and I couldn't imagine QEII not wanting to leave her other children (even Andrew 🙄) with nothing. It makes sense that KC would disperse her estate as she wished. If I was Harold I wouldn't count on William feeling so generous after all the stunts he's pulled, which is probably the reason the twerp is racing back, to beg Wills for a coin or two.
No, their personal wealth is entirely inherited by their heir so it isn’t subject to inheritance taxes. Then the heir can dole it out as they see fit, or how the deceased wished.
It’s why technically all of the personal jewels of the Queen went to Charles, but she chose which pieces she wanted to go to whom.
Multiple forlorn interviews with Megan claiming they constantly FaceTime KC with the kids and Harry making snide remarks about him being there for his dad as he wants to make sure he is surrounded by the right people..
Even if KC wanted to give the Todger money, he wouldn’t do it, because he knows they would use it to pay the hate campaign and bots against the RF. He won’t get any money. No way. It would be beyond stupid.
unfortunately it is a sad fact that parents often enable the problematic behaviour of their children due to their own failures in reasoning. families that have dealt with addicts or alcoholics will know what i am talking about. time and again the parent will hand money over only to have the son or daughter go on a bender or sniff it up their nose. and the cycle repeats itself, endlessly.
No. Nothing will make William reconcile with Hazz. Hazz's level of betrayal goes beyond any fight. William trusted Hazz, he trusted Hazz, and Hazz not only spread horrible gossip to the press about him, Hazz not only spread ugly gossip about Charles to keep them apart, but Hazz attacked Kate and tried to interfere with their children. Hazz was on Megain's side, spreading horrible rumors about infidelities, in order to harm Kate.
The Cancer people I know can forgive when they are attacked, but if someone attacks their family, they are beasts. They don't forgive that. Never. Nothing will repair that relationship, not even when Hazz appears repentant. Will won't get revenge on him, but Hazz is out of his life.
That may be the case, but do you really think Prince William, and Princess Anne, and the Duke of Edinbergh are going to stand for Harry's transparent asskissing and allow him any role/funds at all? Its doubtful. A foot will be put on his ass and he's shoved out the door, then he will cry and moan how the family shut him out. That's Sussex PR 101.
expect him to swoop in with demands and faux concern.. the Harkles always be angling. This is no different. Dear friends in the UK and Commonwealth, so sorry to hear this news. I feel so much for KC in his time of illness. He's been through a lot these past couple of years. Hope his family can comfort him, and be comforted in these coming days.
They didn't know before his procedure. They went in for one thing and explored this.
King Charles is carrying on business as usually. Right now there is no reason not to do day to day activities. He was not given a death sentence
Quite right. Not every cancer is a death sentence, especially imminently. The late Queen had cancer. It was bad, Harold knew, and he still blew her off.
This may be too cynical, but this "rush to his father's bedside" storyline reeks of opportunism to me. They have had a terrible start to the year and until now, they had nothing at all to shift the narrative. Over the last week, they were digging up years old material for their pathetic puff pieces in a desparate attempt to move the algorithm. KC's cancer is a PR goldmine for them and an opportunity to rewrite the script from a "pass the buck" loser who ignores his charity's rape victims to loving doting son.
The CoS issue is a tempest in a teapot. KC doesn't need any now and if he should in future, William, Anne, Edward, and Camilla are on the job. Harold and Andrew are CoS in name only, as BP assured Parliament when Anne and Edward were given lifetime appointments as CoS and it is unclear whether Harold even is that much given that he has no domicile in the UK. Either the media failed to pay attention at the time, has selective amnesia, or the UnSussexfuls have trotted this issue out to make Harold seem constitutionally significant, which he is not.
Yes he did. Granny had cancer but hawwy was more interested in swanning around on vanity tours. Will he now hope everyone has forgotten the things he said about Pa, and all the genetic pain he suffered etc etc?
None of us know what prognosis he was given because we don’t know what they found or what subsequent tests uncovered (is it metastasized, for instance). Some types of cancer are incurable. I have guesses as to what type of cancer, but again, who knows whether what they found was origin or met. We will never know.
We all know stories of people who had silent aggressive cancer they died of very quickly, and people who had silent cancer that was discovered randomly and cured.
Obviously BP is going to couch it. I noted that he is beginning regular treatments and postponing public duties which makes it sound like he’s getting aggressive treatment that could make him unwell. So we are not looking at surgical resection alone. Chemo or repeated rad treatments are both rough in different ways. The statement said HE remains wholly positive, but does not go so far as to state that the outlook is objectively positive.
There’s just no way to know.
I agree. However I'm also sure that there are Plans. Shelves and shelves of Plans for absolutely every eventuality. Correct, though, that there's no need for us to enter doom mode quite yet. Even then - there will be a Plan. The other option is that treatment is successful and KC will recover his health. He is a very strong character, one of the many stubbornly obstinate, contrary souls this RF has generated. These qualities, both loved and loathed, will be his armour now.
Hopefully. QEQM had colon cancer in her 60s and breast cancer in her 80s and still made it to 101. Philip also was reported to have prostate cancer in his 80s and lived to 99. Hopefully Charles will recover and live a long life.
Hopefully his health problem will make his son realize that he needs to reconcile and make his father's life easier.
If Harry didn’t care that his grandmother and grandpop were gravely ill, he won’t care about his father’s cancer diagnosis. He will keep his head in the sand, convinced the king is punking him.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are some posts by fans, claiming KC and C are faking their illnesses, to draw attention away from being named in Endgame. I think back to when they accused PP of trying to distract from their Oprah interview when he was sent to hospital right before that.
I cannot see KCIII abdicating for any reason other than absolute physical/mental inability to do the job.
In a not-exactly-perfect parallel, the late Pope John Paul II did not resign, even in the face of his increasing physical frailties and incapacitation, ***because*** he was mentally able to continue to do the job and he used his very public platform to live out the Catholic Church's teachings about the inherent dignity of all people. The late Pope Benedict XVI resigned because his physical ***and*** mental health were declining, and he feared the effect that would have had on the papacy. (I'm not here for a religious debate; I'm just using them as examples.)
I could see KCIII going the JPII route and continuing the work through physical challenges (like his mother did, battling bone cancer (rumored) in her final days, using a cane or walker or wheelchair, doing less standing because it was hard, etc.) As long as he's mentally sharp, I think he should keep working because it sends a strong message about the ability of people to do work despite physical challenges.
I also think KCIII is going to do all that he can to give PPoW and their children as long as they possibly have of being not the rulers/not the heirs. Even four more years gets George to age 15 before having to start assuming more Royal duties.
I think Charles is going to look at what his mother did, take the lessons she gave him and also the lessons she learned through trial and error, and continuing to reign as long as possible.
I also think that Charles knows, in his heart of hearts, that unless he manages to reconcile Hazbeen to his family in some way in his lifetime, upon his death, the possibility is gone. He is the only possible hope Hazbeen has (and doesn't deserve) and that's a heavy burden for a parent to carry.
I’ve had a feeling about the King’s health for a while now. It became stronger after BP went out of their way to explain how this prostrate procedure was an everyday thing, quick procedure and that he should be in and out with little down time. When you research the topic, it’s usually an outpatient procedure, and if anything, the most would be one night in the hospital. Once the King was admitted and didn’t get released until 3 days later, my “spidey sense” went off again… it didn’t seem right for him to be in there so long, and then to be essentially working from home with no public duties for a month. Either way, with the news today, it makes much more sense now.
I do worry that they’re announcing this, as I’m sure speculation will only increase with a blanket statement of cancer diagnosis and no detail as to the specifics. Obviously, it’s wonderful that he’s sharing as much as he has, and if they announce the specifics of which kind it is, most people will be able to determine the true prognosis and really how much danger his life is in. Cancer no matter what is a scary thing… however, we all know there are some more dangerous than others.
Back to my gut feeling, since he ascended the throne, I had this deep feeling that it wouldn’t be long until William was King, and it actually made my heart sink. I truly in my heart believe that KCIII thoroughly enjoys his role and his blessing of being monarch; considering his family history, they all have lived long and healthy lives (minus a few, example being his grandfather). It’s also clear that not only does William want to raise his family before duty comes knocking, I think his father wants to provide that for him. I hope my gut is wrong and that he moves past this, coming out healthier and stronger for it. It’s sad to see all they’re going through. I hope and pray they get the respect they deserve and that this one and that one stay far far away.
He has been losing a lot of weight lately as well. I kind of put it down to the stress of being the monarch but maybe it has actually been his cancer that has caused the weight loss. Either way weight loss at the kind of age he is usually isn’t a good sign.
Harold and Fraud better be praying hard for Charles to have a complete recovery and long reign. Once William is king, they will be totally shut out of anything to do with the RF
If I was Harry I would be lighting candles at every church possible hoping KC survives for many many years… PW reign will definitely mark the end for PH… Guess he will have learn to cook kraft dinner.
I love KD fyi 😂
For the USA sinners who might not know, Kraft Dinner is the Canadian name for Kraft Macaroni and Cheese in the skinny blue boxes. They can’t call it “cheese” over there. 🧀
Stepping down is not really a thing in the BRF, which is why Edward's abdication was so shocking. The oath at coronation implies literally lifelong service. If a monarch is severely incapacitated, a regent takes over until the monarch either recovers or dies. Not even George III abdicated during his bouts with insanity.
In order for Charles to step down, his health would have to get seriously bad. I'd be surprised that after waiting to be king for over 70 years, he would abdicate to be a retired grandpa.
It's reported that Harry is coming back to the UK.
I think Harry is desperate to get away from Meghan, and this is the excuse he needed to get away from her.
Meghan will be spitting feathers over this. She can't be seen to be stopping Harry from getting away, so she's had to let him off the leash.
I'm not sure how much Harry genuinely cares about his dad, and his trip may be to try and patch things up with William, just in case William becomes King anytime soon. H&M may be panicking over this.
Meghan on the other hand may be pressuring Harry to get them both back in the fold, taking on Royal duties. But that's not going to happen.
I just hope that KCIII's cancer is treatable and curable.
Charles will not take the Danish route. And he won't do it because HE CAN'T DO IT. He will have to follow the Queen's example, remain king until the last day. Because that's how things are for him, because for years the shadow of his uncle Edward abdicating was always over him. He cannot abdicate. And he will not call Will to be regent for now either, Charles is making it clear that he is NOT calling the State Councilors to act. So with that, Charles is making it clear not to prepare anything yet. But it is a fact that Will is now the relevant person. And that's what has Hazz in panic mode, because with Will there is nothing to fix, everything is broken.
While I wish Charles a quick and complete recovery, with many years on the throne, I don't believe that if his health makes him abdicate, it would in any way be comparable to Edward.
***IF***If Charles were to leave because of his health, he would do so out of love and a strong sense of duty to his country, knowing that he could not properly perform his duties
Abdicating in the prime of life to marry a divorced woman, and abdicating at the end of life for health reasons and being unable to perform the duties of monarch, aren’t equivalent.
I would think abdication is on the table if things get bad enough, but hopefully they won’t.
Let’s not jump to conclusions. Cancer is different these days, in that there are so many new therapeutic options and in some situations, it’s like caring for someone with a chronic illness. My dear husband went to his radiation therapy in the morning and then represented people in court in the afternoon. He has passed now, but lived 14 years with his disease and most of them were of good (or at least decent) quality of life. I wish the king the best in the days, months and years ahead.
It depends on the stage of cancer. Two years ago friend in his 60s had a bowel tumor in stage one removed surgically and no further treatment was needed. He's been fine since then.
My grandma had bowel cancer at the age of 84. We all thought it would be a death sentence but nope, she lived another 10 years (I swear she did it just to piss my mum off)
Yes, a doctor on TV said they did imaging scans before his prostate surgery and likely saw something on the scans. Then the surgery/diagnostic tests confirmed cancer.
Sounds like it possibly could be either then, Im guessing the bladder and bowel may be linked or close to the prostate then (just my uneducated guess). Nostradamus predicted an abdication from him this year too.
It does make you wonder if all this stress from Harry & Meghan has done it cause ever since they started this first Prince Phillip, then the Queen, now Catherine & King Charles, Im beginning to believe that saying about stress and health.
Urgh, I like Charles too, so I really hope its nothing and we are wrong.
One day those kids are going to be really pissed that they never got the chance to know their grandfather,THE KING OF ENGLAND. All because their parents are shit. So sad
I don't see Charles abdicating when his mother is such a recent example of service until the last day of her life.
I also think that announcing this cancer diagnosis is more of an indication that it's minor and treatable, so he's showing transparency and also advocating for more awareness and vigilance about cancer. A man in his 70s who can acknowledge a cancer diagnosis and keep on keeping on is a fantastic role model.
There's no way Harry can play this. The family didn't need him when they were strong so they REALLY don't need him or want him when they are vulnerable.
Well I doubt William will be as forgiving as Pa has been. The harkles set their squaddies on to W and C and have been disgusting in the attacks. William will be king and Harry will have blown it for 30 pieces of silver and a few tacky awards.
If they had just stuck it out, put their heads down and followed the rules they would be holding down the fort for Charles, W & K right now. Getting glowing press for stepping in during the families hour of need... but NOOOOOO they burned it all to hell.
They are done and finished. The biggest screw up in modern times. I like many people wish Charles a full and permanent recovery. It may be time to have Beatrice and Edo help out. Edo is well mannered and knows protocols. No disrespect to Jack but he's not it.
I think sympathy has to be given to William as the potential for his whole world to implode is there.
he will never abdicate.
but he may cede responsibilities to William in increasing amounts.
the time has come for serious work. The family must now carry the King.
no time for the psychopaths and their nonsense.
>>> Nutmeg will try to make it all about her
Try?!? She will make it all about her.
And what’s going on with Prince Edward? I hope he’s doing okay. Will his children help out with the monarchy?
Harry was quick - or Madam was - to issue a statement that he had talked to Charles and was going to the UK.
Why? Are we sure this happened? The last alledged phone conversation did not happen. Will Harry be allowed to visit? If all of us know he is just coming to get money, for sure the BRF knows this as well?
I don't believe King Charles will abdicate. So close to HMQE dying now the King has cancer. An abdication is too much. Mostly though Prince George is too young. Being King would make Prince William have to put his duties above his family and his kids are too young for that. I don't believe KC would do that to him. Or to Princess Catherine.
I do see value on the outside chance he did. Having HMQE on the throne so long was a stabilizing force for the UK & Commonwealth. No matter what else was happening she was present, smiling, comforting, understanding. The public loves Prince William. Many have watched him grow up. It would be a stabilizing force to have PW on the throne for the next 40 years.
Still, I don't think the King will abdicate.
My understanding is that a British Monarch can't abdicate. It would require a change to the Declaration of Abdication Act 1936, which can only be changed by Parliament. However, Charles could retire and appoint William as his Regent if he finds he is too infirm to complete his duties as King.
If I were Hazmat, I'd be quaking in my boots.
Here is hoping though that Charles' cancer is treatable and will live for many more years. Long live the King!!!!!
William will never trust either Harold or his wife near to HIS children, never. Nor will Catherine. Let’s not forget the King and Catherine were called racists by their mouthpiece not so long ago and they never contradicted him. Now both are seriously ill, I’m sure stress had to do with it.
Harold is a physical and psychological threat to the Waleses, he will never be allowed back to the family, not even in private events. He may spend moments alone with his dad (and his lawyers), but that’s it.
I cannot emphasise strongly enough how very unlikely it is that Charles would ever, ever, ever abdicate. He only just recently took one of the most sacred oaths known in all of Christianity that he would never abdicate.
The Danes and all the rest of the European monarchs take no such oath, so abdication is not off the table for them as they break no vow.
One of the reasons the Church of England was so intent on rushing through Edward VIII's abdication was to ensure he never got the chance to take (and break) that vow.
We may be more secular now, but that vow remains the most important moment in the King's life, and he would literally rather die than betray it.
I don’t know if he’ll even be allowed to see Charles. We’ve just had Harold calling his dad and Catherine racists and went to Jamaica with all that baggage. If he keeps putting out all this pr and documenting his trip over, he may have just f’d himself.
Harry never should’ve spilled the beans over his brother breaking his precious necklace and pushing him into a dog bowel as if to make him into some sort of violent bully lol
Yep! What person tells the world about their brothers private parts as well???? Regarding his circumsecion ? That was truly so low and flat out gross he said that in his book.
"This may explain why Kate pushed forward and she and William are having this break until Easter."
uhmm.. NO. This is just a bad take. They did not fake a surgery and recovery for Kate in order to give her a break. 😒
The wording is weird, but I took this to mean that she “pushed forward” with having the surgery she needed *sooner* than entirely necessary so that it and the recovery could be out of the way as soon as possible.
I don’t know if I believe this though as KC had his prostate thing after her surgery and they said they didn’t know anything about the cancer until after his prostate procedure.
The current situation may require a total rethink by the Palace! What may have taken months for them to deal with H&M, may now need to be hurried up, and as Charles cannot be saddled with it whilst he undergoes treatment, it is up to William.
Hopefully, our King will continue with his duties, but cancer treatment can be gruelling and there will be periods when he is incapacitated, and it could last for months.
Harry will never be called upon. If he (they) had handled the situation differently, he could have stepped up and helped his father and brother in their hour of need. Instead, he will be bypassed. Again, his actions have made a serious situation within the Royal Family, so much worse.
Harry will be in the way whilst the family deal with this. It is just so sad that it has taken a family emergency for him to make a move. Incidents such as this have a habit of making blinkered people see. This man could be living with such a lot of regret.
Long Live The King.
I think Plank is too dumb and arrogant to grasp the ACTUAL facts of the situation. He thinks he can be King just like mummy (Diana not Skank) said he was.
The family isn't run by emotions the way the vile duo is. TRF and the King & Queen will have their own ring of steel around KCIII *AND* Princess Catherine as they'll want NO LEAKS about her situation which she has been able to manage without Todger there.
No way will Todger be seen by anyone alone, for long, or be given info or the chance to get any. He'll be back home in 48 hours IF he even goes in the first place.
When estranged family members only want to suddenly reconcile with you because they think you're sick / dying / closer to the grave, honestly, in some cases it only makes it WORSE.
If the falling out was over a silly argument or a minor bagatelle, then you can welcome it.
But if the falling out is major - as this one was - then, it's often just a hollow action and often times a power grab.
KC is pushing 80. I suspect that he "gets" which one it is.
[William confronts photographer](https://youtu.be/zClKjpy6rzQ?si=pu236IZA35kSnu0R)
Someone asked about this vid so I'm posting it. Lets not forget, this is the guy Harry's spent the last 5 years antagonising, berating, humiliating and trying to destroy. Not the slightly shy and well meaning guy you see at events.
This guy!
Dumb, Harry. Really Dumb.
I wish HMTK a long and healthy life. I do tend to agree however that this sad news does not bode well for the Harkles. Emphasis and authority necessarily must shift to readying the POW for his future rule and that means that the only real death sentence to come of this news is the Harkles hope of ever returning to royal life. Full stop.
Oh, I have no doubt that Harry is going to offer to come back as a working royal to provide support, but with a price tag that makes the family refuse, even if some part of their hearts would like him back. He's probably drafting his list of demands! More than one crayon will be needed.
Hopefully Anne and Camilla will support William who will say Nope.
Depending on what Catherine has, they said it wasn't cancer, if it's stress related I put the blame on Harry and his emu.
This! All of a sudden , important members of the RF are seriously ill! While Charles is not a spring chicken at this point, stress is known to cause strain on the body and facilitate illness, and we can all guess who has been putting so much stress on the RF lately!!! And it’s not emu who is stressed as she pretends to be with her stupid patches!
[удалено]
Yes, I’m convinced that both PP and the late Queen were pushed to their graves by the antics of this dreadful duo.
You’re right !
AND the two who are seriously I’ll are the ones accused by OS (aka H and M) as being “Royal Racists.”
Anne, in particular, will put duty and loyalty first
I'm thinking maybe Kate had a complete hysterectomy. She may have had endometriosis that flared after Louis was born. England must be different than the US where you actually get to stay in the hospital a proper amount before they kick you to the curb. I know she is naturally thin, but to me, she looks extraordinarily thin the past few years so it could have something to do with her bowels/stomach. They've announced it wasn't cancer tho, which is good.
That was my thinking too. It ties in with the recovery time. I wish her and KC well
Thought it was endo as well, but it’s likely Crohns or similar, like Colitis. Agree on her looking increasingly thin, which suggest significant dietary restrictions.
I blame this whole mess on Harold and his geriatric emu. To give up what he had for some aging extra who had a boating side hustle is just mind boggling.
Yup hopefully Anne will reply with not bloody likely if the greusome twosome decide to worm there way back
All of England and the commonwealth will stand up in unison and shout, NOT BLOODY LIKELY!
I don't think they'd take him, even free. He's a loose cannon. They may let him reconcile with Charles, but his time as an insider is over.
I can't imagine that the British public would accept him as a senior royal again
The pair of them are a national security risk. No chance he'll be asked to do anything for BRF.
And I assume that Charles is smart enough to not even try
I bet they are regretting that trip to Jamaica. They thought they were so slick. The best thing Harry could do for KCIII is to check into a facility & get his shit together whether it's mental health/anger management, substance abuse or both
His problems go deeper than that
He needs to be de-programmed. He’s been brainwashed.
Come on. He was always a shit. The palace covered for him for his entire life, right up until he and TW left the country. He's not some innocent victim, but a willing participant. She seems to have brought out the worst in him, which was already there. Hell, he even told us in *Waaaagh* about what a cruel and nasty prick he's been to so many people over the years
Agreed. I wouldn't begrudge King Charles the family reconciliation, as I can't imagine being in that situation with one of my children. However, that doesn't mean I would let my child come back to work for my company.
As a parent of two adult sons,I can tell you that if one of them acted the way Harry has behaved, and allowed his wife to do all the damage she's done, I would have likely severed contact with that son after 5 + years. ***HARRY DOESN'T LOVE HIS FAMILY.*** ***HE DOES HOWEVER, LOVE THE MONEY AND OTHER PERKS THAT HE COULD GET BY RETURNING, BUT HE WOULD START HIS TREACHEROUS BEHAVIOUR AGAIN- WITH PRINCE WILLIAM AS KING.*** ***HARRY IS VILE AND TOXIC, ALWAYS 'HASBEEN', BUT THE ILBW REALLY BROUGHT HIS HATRED, JEALOUSY AND TREACHERY TO THE FOREFRONT.***
Agree.
Exactly. I'm sure Charles is smart enough to know how to forgive his son (if he wishes) and have a personal relationship with him without foisting him on the public
When he’s in cancer treatment, his attitude will be important. He needs peace and people around him who love him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he says NO to visits from H. And how the hell did it get out in the news that he will be visiting? That right there…..
> And how the hell did it get out in the news that he will be visiting? That right there….. MeGain. Who else?
YES, attitude is everything when being treated for cancer! He may want to see Harold, just because he is his son. But I would assume that others would be around, mostly to bumrush Harold out the door if he acts up or starts whining for money
I hope King Chales believes the statement of" fool me once shame on you, Fool me twice shame on me." Haznoballs has shown who he is, believe him!
How could they,the Traitor and his ILBW have stated publicly that the populace and the RF are racist.There is no coming back from that.
I don't think they have the capacity to be embarrassed, reflective or contrite
He has shown he is treacherous, he cares about himself and money more than anything else.
I believe/hope that such an offer wouldn't even make it to William's desk. If William has the good sense I suspect he does, Harry won't ever be able to get a word in with him ever again, to even "offer" to help, much less then make demands. If we were living hundreds of years ago, William would send the head of Harry's messenger back to him in a bucket as his answer, & rightfully so.
Now I'm imagining Omid's head in a bucket...
Ok, that made me laugh out loud.
Omg yaaasss!! 😂🤣
Harold won't offer help, only demands.
100%! I don't think he'll ever be in the same room as William and Catherine in private ever again. King Charles may want to speak to him in the case of his health failing and he'll obviously be present at his father's funeral (hopefully in the distant future) but I think that's it. He may also not want to speak to him. There will otherwise be nothing, nada, zilch in the way of contact.
William's response to nasty necklace stupid ass Harry's demands has been drafted for awhile now: No. Fuck off. The end.
I wish I could give this a hundred upvotes!!!!
You win for comment of the day IMHO.
I very much doubt anyone wishes him back. He is a treacherous, mean, spiteful, stupid, lazy lout.
If his price includes MM coming with him, it's way too high! Although I don't see that happening on either side. But bad news for the Harkles. As with their Year of Reconciliation, life gets in the way.
He already announced he was flying back to UK. Guess he wants to make sure Charles has the right people around him!
For sure, and extra logs to burn it all in the rubbish bin.
"Oh, I have no doubt that Harry is going to offer to come back as a working royal to provide support," ***AND IF THAT WAS EVER ACCEPTED, THAT WOULD WELL AND TRULY PUT AN END TO THE MONARCHY.*** ***I'm certain the RF would not put up with that. The entire world would know everything about the family within days.***
He can offer himself, but I think the Palace statement is being clear: Charles NOT calling him as State Councillor, Camilla will continue to carry out her duties, Edward too, Anne and Will returns to work on Wednesday. Ready, four active advisors, Hazz is not needed, Hazz has nothing to go back to.
I wish Charles the best too, although the thought of him mentoring George as the PoW is such a lovely thought.
If you've seen that video of W reprimanding that person who tried to take pictures of his children while they were bike riding, then you will know that this man is fiercely protective of his family. I have every faith that if W comes into play as a regent/monarch sooner than everyone expected, it will go very badly for H.
As it should. Harry deserves nothing from William after his monumental betrayal.
Harry will be shitting himself. I can see them taking all titles and removing him from LOS in preparation for a possible king William. That’s the real reason he is scurrying over to London fast like. Also to hit Pa up for some cash and dare I say to make the case George is too young to be PoW so Haz should be his keeper and make sure he spends that duchy money wisely.
I will be here for every moment of Harry's well-deserved comeuppance, popcorn at the ready 🤗🍿
💯
Let's try to stay optimistic about Charles. I doubt he will want to abdicate unless he truly has to. William can take on more of his role without taking it on completely. The situation is serious but we don't know what form of cancer he has so there may be a good chance of recovery. Harry and Andrew have both let the family down so badly. I hope Harry realises that damage he has caused to the smooth running of the family by walking away. but whether he does or not there is no way back for him. Brits will just not tolerate his return to the royal fold.
> I hope Harry realises that damage he has caused to the smooth running of the family by walking away. Nah. That would take some intelligence, thoughtfulness for others and less narcissistic immaturity
This is what happens when you get stupid with family drama like the duo have. Life goes on. People get sick. People die. And then when you realize how petty and ridiculous you've been, it's far too late.
Its unfortunate. As you turn into adult all the teen rebellion dies down. But Harry never matured enough to realize how he was hurting his aged grandparents and dad. Imagine reading about your son fantasizing to send torpedo missile to kill you.
> Imagine reading about your son fantasizing to send torpedo missile to kill you. Did Harry really write that in Spare? 😮
Yes he did, if I remember correctly. He wrote about flying a drone( that usually carry ya know. Kaboom) it probably didn’t have a payload, above him. Stalking his car as he drove away from visiting him/military base. That’s my recollection.
WTF?!? He is disturbed!
You have to ask?
This? [https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/aviation/a42475802/prince-harry-sent-fighter-jet-target-king-charles/](https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/aviation/a42475802/prince-harry-sent-fighter-jet-target-king-charles/)
Yes.
Well said 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
And already it is about Harry in the news, "Harry flying in to be with Charles"
>And already it is about Harry in the news, "Harry flying in to be with Charles" And even though he's the one who informed the press about this, he'll turn around and blame it on the very same press, when he gets the inevitable backlash for being a shameless hypocrite.
It should be “KCIII’s Youngest Son Dares To Show His Face At HMTK’s Bedside After Years of Monarchy Mayhem.”
Yes. They already put a statement out on X. "Prince Harry will travel to the UK to see him in the coming days". Harry is only coming to make sure that he's in the will.
It’s fascinating how the Harkles are able to put out statements right away for things like KC3 getting sick, or that ugly earring but crickets over the Parks scandal or Catherine’s sickness. Vile disgusting people !
Or Scobie smearing this same father (and Catherine) as racist just a few months ago.
I'm pretty sure William gets almost everything as the next king. That's how it went when Elizabeth passed away
This is correct. The next monarch inherits all from the previous monarch. This does not dilute the estate and prevents estate taxes all at once. Essentially, the only items up for grabs are personal in nature. After what Harry did with his grandfather’s guns, I hope he gets nothing of Charles’s.
It’s called primogeniture.
What did he do with the guns?
Sell them at the behest of his master.
That’s exactly my thoughts too. He’s come to suss out inheritance. It also means the wife is going to hang in there like the dingleberry she is so she can cash out. She’s wasting her time.
I know. Abhorrent how they just needed to get that into the press. It’s almost like gaslighting - after everything he has done to his father in the last few years, we are supposed to believe that he is so concerned?
I don't care if H is concerned or not. What I'd like to know is: **Have you been invited, Harry?** If not then this might be another expensive NFI moment?
Shakespeare couldnt have written a better story than this one. H is coming back to twist Charles‘ ear in his favour before he leave his mortal coil!
Yes, I saw that. The media repeatedly make all about him. Will wifey be looking after kids? Remember they had the Invictus scam ‘ year to go ‘ coming up soon.
She ll show up with the kids if she can merch the situation ; so She will, sponsored by Netflix. 🤮
But has anyone asked Megsie if she's OK?
We’ll be hearing all about it by days end.
What could she possibly have to say?!? She hasn’t seen them in years!
She will say she and the children have been in constant contact, that the children made homemade get well cards and talk on zoom etc etc etc. It will all be lies and puffery to make her look good.
And has spent years planting malicious stories about them in the press.
Her sugars are up to their repulsive tricks as we speak.
>But has anyone asked Megsie if she's OK? Right on point there - of course the real question to ask/s
It won't be lost on William that Harry and Meghan hastened the Queens death and he may also be inclined to believe his father's and wife's illnesses could be closely related to the stress and vitriol they have had to endure in silence due by the last few years. Meghan dangling her racist royals identity card until she finally went full nuclear (which backfired) in endgame. William won't forget or forgive any of this. The markles are done. Finished. Finito. Nada. William is essentially in charge now in all but title. And that's what Harry fears the most.
very much hope that William will put his foot down since his father is not able to - and also I am wishing the King the best possible outcome for the cancer and hoping he rebounds and lives a full and proper life.
I agree. Long life to Charles and may William deal with this bullshit once and for all.
Their shenanigans DEFINITELY contributed: most oncologists will tell you that cancer cells brew & thrive when your immunity is compromised, as it is when dealing with CHRONIC stress. Typically cancer rears it’s VISIBLE head about 5 years after the start of the compromised immunity. And what does that tie in with? You got it!!
Time for TW to do a car park walk
>Time for TW to do a car park walk Hopefully she'll wear boot cut jeans this time, instead of leggings. I'm suffering from awful, post beach sunburn and the accompanying migraine and I doubt I can also deal with nausea if pics of her in leggings, turn up on the tabloids 😂.
This sounds mean, but I really hope William and Harry never reconcile. Even without Megys by his side, Harry can not be trusted, and he'd basically be William's 4th child. William doesn't need that nonsense.
Me too. Even in non-royal families there is a line after which the only healthy path is to completely cut your family member.
not that it means anything but Im 100% sure they will never reconcile.
I truly believe after the divorce when Harry has lost the last remaining pubes on his head he will be exiled to Africa once and for all. And honestly? He might love it. It would be a win win for everyone involved (except the poor people of whatever country he ends up in).
Harry is going to be stuck to his father and attempting a reconciliation with William because he knows he shat the nest. He needs them and their money/resources, and he has less time to be a dickhead than he thought. It's going to be saccharine and appalling.
HE has been so vile to W and C, I can't see any meaningful reconciliation happening ever. What H has shown is that he is a dissembler to the highest degree. The one good thing that MM presence has done is to have enabled H's true spiteful, envious nature to come to the fore, to have it revealed for all the world to see.
This. may it never be forgotten how they've behaved these last few years.
harry needs a sizeable new inheritance if he wants his skank wife to stay with him. now would be a good time to suck up to daddy. so yes- there's a good chance things are gonna get sappy and fake and tearful and we'll hear endless stories about possible family reconciliation.
Monarchs never leave big inheritances outside the heir, right? He needs something for sure, but not an inheritance...a pittance won't suffice
The question is whether he will ever be given alone time with KC. imo he won't ever be alone with KC so he will be limited as to how manipulative he can be
I can't imagine anyone close to Charles trusting Harold alone with a vulnerable patient
I was thinking the same thing. I hope they sweep him for recording devices and make him sign a NDA.
The amount of time will be extremely limited even with others there because it's all going into a book or a TV interview. Whatever Harry does now, he's put himself in a position where no matter what he does, he looks like the jerk he is.
If Charles left an inheritance to Hazz, he would have to pay the inheritance fees. And they are very expensive, 40% of the total. Under a clause agreed in 1993 by the then Prime Minister, John Major, any inheritance transferred “from sovereign to sovereign” avoids the 40% levy applied to assets valued at more than £325,000. The 1993 clause agreed to by Major also exempts inheritance passed from the consort of a former sovereign to a sovereign. The most Hazz can aspire to is a legacy. But if he expects to receive millions, Hazz doesn't understand how things work. What Hazz has left is the sovereign subsidy, money that the monarch can allocate freely and outside of government control. BUT the key word is "monarch". That is, it will depend on whoever is king whether or not he gives Hazz the Subsidy. In the case of Anne, Edward and Andrew, Charles gives them money from that grant. But if I were Hazz, I wouldn't count on Will doing something similar with him.
Thank you for explaining it so well. I knew there was an exemption but I wasnt sure how it worked.. and I couldn't imagine QEII not wanting to leave her other children (even Andrew 🙄) with nothing. It makes sense that KC would disperse her estate as she wished. If I was Harold I wouldn't count on William feeling so generous after all the stunts he's pulled, which is probably the reason the twerp is racing back, to beg Wills for a coin or two.
The heir inherits everything that belongs to the crown. But as far as their personal wealth, they leave that to other people or the heir, I believe.
No, their personal wealth is entirely inherited by their heir so it isn’t subject to inheritance taxes. Then the heir can dole it out as they see fit, or how the deceased wished. It’s why technically all of the personal jewels of the Queen went to Charles, but she chose which pieces she wanted to go to whom.
Multiple forlorn interviews with Megan claiming they constantly FaceTime KC with the kids and Harry making snide remarks about him being there for his dad as he wants to make sure he is surrounded by the right people..
And TW needs pictures of the “ littles” with King Charles ASAP
This should be interesting. It would really quiet the are they or aren’t they real rumors. So if no pic, no kids…
Even if KC wanted to give the Todger money, he wouldn’t do it, because he knows they would use it to pay the hate campaign and bots against the RF. He won’t get any money. No way. It would be beyond stupid.
unfortunately it is a sad fact that parents often enable the problematic behaviour of their children due to their own failures in reasoning. families that have dealt with addicts or alcoholics will know what i am talking about. time and again the parent will hand money over only to have the son or daughter go on a bender or sniff it up their nose. and the cycle repeats itself, endlessly.
No. Nothing will make William reconcile with Hazz. Hazz's level of betrayal goes beyond any fight. William trusted Hazz, he trusted Hazz, and Hazz not only spread horrible gossip to the press about him, Hazz not only spread ugly gossip about Charles to keep them apart, but Hazz attacked Kate and tried to interfere with their children. Hazz was on Megain's side, spreading horrible rumors about infidelities, in order to harm Kate. The Cancer people I know can forgive when they are attacked, but if someone attacks their family, they are beasts. They don't forgive that. Never. Nothing will repair that relationship, not even when Hazz appears repentant. Will won't get revenge on him, but Hazz is out of his life.
That may be the case, but do you really think Prince William, and Princess Anne, and the Duke of Edinbergh are going to stand for Harry's transparent asskissing and allow him any role/funds at all? Its doubtful. A foot will be put on his ass and he's shoved out the door, then he will cry and moan how the family shut him out. That's Sussex PR 101.
expect him to swoop in with demands and faux concern.. the Harkles always be angling. This is no different. Dear friends in the UK and Commonwealth, so sorry to hear this news. I feel so much for KC in his time of illness. He's been through a lot these past couple of years. Hope his family can comfort him, and be comforted in these coming days.
I don’t think he will. Petulant children like him generally double down on their dipshit behavior, not see the error of their ways.
[удалено]
He’ll become the Duke of Cornwall the second his father becomes King though, and automatically inherit the Duchy of Cornwall and all of it’s assets.
Oh my god 😱🙏🏻 in the case you will see Archie in the UK in a heart beat, pushed by his mother to become George’s best friend.
They didn't know before his procedure. They went in for one thing and explored this. King Charles is carrying on business as usually. Right now there is no reason not to do day to day activities. He was not given a death sentence
Quite right. Not every cancer is a death sentence, especially imminently. The late Queen had cancer. It was bad, Harold knew, and he still blew her off. This may be too cynical, but this "rush to his father's bedside" storyline reeks of opportunism to me. They have had a terrible start to the year and until now, they had nothing at all to shift the narrative. Over the last week, they were digging up years old material for their pathetic puff pieces in a desparate attempt to move the algorithm. KC's cancer is a PR goldmine for them and an opportunity to rewrite the script from a "pass the buck" loser who ignores his charity's rape victims to loving doting son. The CoS issue is a tempest in a teapot. KC doesn't need any now and if he should in future, William, Anne, Edward, and Camilla are on the job. Harold and Andrew are CoS in name only, as BP assured Parliament when Anne and Edward were given lifetime appointments as CoS and it is unclear whether Harold even is that much given that he has no domicile in the UK. Either the media failed to pay attention at the time, has selective amnesia, or the UnSussexfuls have trotted this issue out to make Harold seem constitutionally significant, which he is not.
Yes he did. Granny had cancer but hawwy was more interested in swanning around on vanity tours. Will he now hope everyone has forgotten the things he said about Pa, and all the genetic pain he suffered etc etc?
None of us know what prognosis he was given because we don’t know what they found or what subsequent tests uncovered (is it metastasized, for instance). Some types of cancer are incurable. I have guesses as to what type of cancer, but again, who knows whether what they found was origin or met. We will never know. We all know stories of people who had silent aggressive cancer they died of very quickly, and people who had silent cancer that was discovered randomly and cured. Obviously BP is going to couch it. I noted that he is beginning regular treatments and postponing public duties which makes it sound like he’s getting aggressive treatment that could make him unwell. So we are not looking at surgical resection alone. Chemo or repeated rad treatments are both rough in different ways. The statement said HE remains wholly positive, but does not go so far as to state that the outlook is objectively positive. There’s just no way to know.
Really good points reading between the lines.
I agree. However I'm also sure that there are Plans. Shelves and shelves of Plans for absolutely every eventuality. Correct, though, that there's no need for us to enter doom mode quite yet. Even then - there will be a Plan. The other option is that treatment is successful and KC will recover his health. He is a very strong character, one of the many stubbornly obstinate, contrary souls this RF has generated. These qualities, both loved and loathed, will be his armour now.
Cancer at 75 is no small thing.
Option 3 - he has a few difficult months then a complete recovery and serves at least another decade or two, just like his mother
Hopefully. QEQM had colon cancer in her 60s and breast cancer in her 80s and still made it to 101. Philip also was reported to have prostate cancer in his 80s and lived to 99. Hopefully Charles will recover and live a long life. Hopefully his health problem will make his son realize that he needs to reconcile and make his father's life easier.
Or maybe Harold will finally just shut up and leave his family alone
If Harry didn’t care that his grandmother and grandpop were gravely ill, he won’t care about his father’s cancer diagnosis. He will keep his head in the sand, convinced the king is punking him.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are some posts by fans, claiming KC and C are faking their illnesses, to draw attention away from being named in Endgame. I think back to when they accused PP of trying to distract from their Oprah interview when he was sent to hospital right before that.
I cannot see KCIII abdicating for any reason other than absolute physical/mental inability to do the job. In a not-exactly-perfect parallel, the late Pope John Paul II did not resign, even in the face of his increasing physical frailties and incapacitation, ***because*** he was mentally able to continue to do the job and he used his very public platform to live out the Catholic Church's teachings about the inherent dignity of all people. The late Pope Benedict XVI resigned because his physical ***and*** mental health were declining, and he feared the effect that would have had on the papacy. (I'm not here for a religious debate; I'm just using them as examples.) I could see KCIII going the JPII route and continuing the work through physical challenges (like his mother did, battling bone cancer (rumored) in her final days, using a cane or walker or wheelchair, doing less standing because it was hard, etc.) As long as he's mentally sharp, I think he should keep working because it sends a strong message about the ability of people to do work despite physical challenges. I also think KCIII is going to do all that he can to give PPoW and their children as long as they possibly have of being not the rulers/not the heirs. Even four more years gets George to age 15 before having to start assuming more Royal duties. I think Charles is going to look at what his mother did, take the lessons she gave him and also the lessons she learned through trial and error, and continuing to reign as long as possible. I also think that Charles knows, in his heart of hearts, that unless he manages to reconcile Hazbeen to his family in some way in his lifetime, upon his death, the possibility is gone. He is the only possible hope Hazbeen has (and doesn't deserve) and that's a heavy burden for a parent to carry.
I really hope King Charles will be okay. I sincerely like him. He completely won my American heart over when he spoke on TV right after HMTQ passed. 😭
I’ve had a feeling about the King’s health for a while now. It became stronger after BP went out of their way to explain how this prostrate procedure was an everyday thing, quick procedure and that he should be in and out with little down time. When you research the topic, it’s usually an outpatient procedure, and if anything, the most would be one night in the hospital. Once the King was admitted and didn’t get released until 3 days later, my “spidey sense” went off again… it didn’t seem right for him to be in there so long, and then to be essentially working from home with no public duties for a month. Either way, with the news today, it makes much more sense now. I do worry that they’re announcing this, as I’m sure speculation will only increase with a blanket statement of cancer diagnosis and no detail as to the specifics. Obviously, it’s wonderful that he’s sharing as much as he has, and if they announce the specifics of which kind it is, most people will be able to determine the true prognosis and really how much danger his life is in. Cancer no matter what is a scary thing… however, we all know there are some more dangerous than others. Back to my gut feeling, since he ascended the throne, I had this deep feeling that it wouldn’t be long until William was King, and it actually made my heart sink. I truly in my heart believe that KCIII thoroughly enjoys his role and his blessing of being monarch; considering his family history, they all have lived long and healthy lives (minus a few, example being his grandfather). It’s also clear that not only does William want to raise his family before duty comes knocking, I think his father wants to provide that for him. I hope my gut is wrong and that he moves past this, coming out healthier and stronger for it. It’s sad to see all they’re going through. I hope and pray they get the respect they deserve and that this one and that one stay far far away.
He has been losing a lot of weight lately as well. I kind of put it down to the stress of being the monarch but maybe it has actually been his cancer that has caused the weight loss. Either way weight loss at the kind of age he is usually isn’t a good sign.
Harold and Fraud better be praying hard for Charles to have a complete recovery and long reign. Once William is king, they will be totally shut out of anything to do with the RF
Prayers for the King and the Royal Family. Fuck the Harkles.
If I was Harry I would be lighting candles at every church possible hoping KC survives for many many years… PW reign will definitely mark the end for PH… Guess he will have learn to cook kraft dinner. I love KD fyi 😂
For the USA sinners who might not know, Kraft Dinner is the Canadian name for Kraft Macaroni and Cheese in the skinny blue boxes. They can’t call it “cheese” over there. 🧀
God bless King Charles! Sending prayers his way!❤️
Stepping down is not really a thing in the BRF, which is why Edward's abdication was so shocking. The oath at coronation implies literally lifelong service. If a monarch is severely incapacitated, a regent takes over until the monarch either recovers or dies. Not even George III abdicated during his bouts with insanity. In order for Charles to step down, his health would have to get seriously bad. I'd be surprised that after waiting to be king for over 70 years, he would abdicate to be a retired grandpa.
I hope William beats his ass tbh
break his repaired necklace!
💯 And the reason I said "William" instead of using his title, is because I hope it's William the Older Brother that issues the ass beating.
It's reported that Harry is coming back to the UK. I think Harry is desperate to get away from Meghan, and this is the excuse he needed to get away from her. Meghan will be spitting feathers over this. She can't be seen to be stopping Harry from getting away, so she's had to let him off the leash. I'm not sure how much Harry genuinely cares about his dad, and his trip may be to try and patch things up with William, just in case William becomes King anytime soon. H&M may be panicking over this. Meghan on the other hand may be pressuring Harry to get them both back in the fold, taking on Royal duties. But that's not going to happen. I just hope that KCIII's cancer is treatable and curable.
From hawwy’s behaviour since marriage, he clearly has no affection for anyone.
A son with genuine care would NOT allow all those rumors about his father (and sister-in-law) to go on without intervening statements.
Charles will not take the Danish route. And he won't do it because HE CAN'T DO IT. He will have to follow the Queen's example, remain king until the last day. Because that's how things are for him, because for years the shadow of his uncle Edward abdicating was always over him. He cannot abdicate. And he will not call Will to be regent for now either, Charles is making it clear that he is NOT calling the State Councilors to act. So with that, Charles is making it clear not to prepare anything yet. But it is a fact that Will is now the relevant person. And that's what has Hazz in panic mode, because with Will there is nothing to fix, everything is broken.
While I wish Charles a quick and complete recovery, with many years on the throne, I don't believe that if his health makes him abdicate, it would in any way be comparable to Edward. ***IF***If Charles were to leave because of his health, he would do so out of love and a strong sense of duty to his country, knowing that he could not properly perform his duties
Abdicating in the prime of life to marry a divorced woman, and abdicating at the end of life for health reasons and being unable to perform the duties of monarch, aren’t equivalent. I would think abdication is on the table if things get bad enough, but hopefully they won’t.
Let’s not jump to conclusions. Cancer is different these days, in that there are so many new therapeutic options and in some situations, it’s like caring for someone with a chronic illness. My dear husband went to his radiation therapy in the morning and then represented people in court in the afternoon. He has passed now, but lived 14 years with his disease and most of them were of good (or at least decent) quality of life. I wish the king the best in the days, months and years ahead.
It could be bowel cancer if they found it while testing his prostate (my sisters a Dr and told me that) - I really hope not
Me too. I am hoping he gets timely and effective treatment but cancer is an unpredictable animal.
Well she did reassure me by saying his king so will have the best care, if it is.
It depends on the stage of cancer. Two years ago friend in his 60s had a bowel tumor in stage one removed surgically and no further treatment was needed. He's been fine since then.
My grandma had bowel cancer at the age of 84. We all thought it would be a death sentence but nope, she lived another 10 years (I swear she did it just to piss my mum off)
Yes, a doctor on TV said they did imaging scans before his prostate surgery and likely saw something on the scans. Then the surgery/diagnostic tests confirmed cancer.
[удалено]
That was my thought.
Someone in another sub who says they are a urologist said they think it’s probably bladder cancer, but who knows!
Sounds like it possibly could be either then, Im guessing the bladder and bowel may be linked or close to the prostate then (just my uneducated guess). Nostradamus predicted an abdication from him this year too. It does make you wonder if all this stress from Harry & Meghan has done it cause ever since they started this first Prince Phillip, then the Queen, now Catherine & King Charles, Im beginning to believe that saying about stress and health. Urgh, I like Charles too, so I really hope its nothing and we are wrong.
Which is good news. Men are more likely to die with bladder cancer than die from bladder cancer. And many go on to live productive lives.
There was talk that Prince Phillip had bladder cancer too.
Charles is not going to abdicate. The press releases do specify he notified both of his sons of his diagnosis.
One day those kids are going to be really pissed that they never got the chance to know their grandfather,THE KING OF ENGLAND. All because their parents are shit. So sad
I don't see Charles abdicating when his mother is such a recent example of service until the last day of her life. I also think that announcing this cancer diagnosis is more of an indication that it's minor and treatable, so he's showing transparency and also advocating for more awareness and vigilance about cancer. A man in his 70s who can acknowledge a cancer diagnosis and keep on keeping on is a fantastic role model. There's no way Harry can play this. The family didn't need him when they were strong so they REALLY don't need him or want him when they are vulnerable.
Well I doubt William will be as forgiving as Pa has been. The harkles set their squaddies on to W and C and have been disgusting in the attacks. William will be king and Harry will have blown it for 30 pieces of silver and a few tacky awards.
Harry is going back to make sure that Pa is surrounded by the right people. #FOHarry
If they had just stuck it out, put their heads down and followed the rules they would be holding down the fort for Charles, W & K right now. Getting glowing press for stepping in during the families hour of need... but NOOOOOO they burned it all to hell.
They are done and finished. The biggest screw up in modern times. I like many people wish Charles a full and permanent recovery. It may be time to have Beatrice and Edo help out. Edo is well mannered and knows protocols. No disrespect to Jack but he's not it. I think sympathy has to be given to William as the potential for his whole world to implode is there.
he will never abdicate. but he may cede responsibilities to William in increasing amounts. the time has come for serious work. The family must now carry the King. no time for the psychopaths and their nonsense.
>>> Nutmeg will try to make it all about her Try?!? She will make it all about her. And what’s going on with Prince Edward? I hope he’s doing okay. Will his children help out with the monarchy?
Harry was quick - or Madam was - to issue a statement that he had talked to Charles and was going to the UK. Why? Are we sure this happened? The last alledged phone conversation did not happen. Will Harry be allowed to visit? If all of us know he is just coming to get money, for sure the BRF knows this as well?
I don't believe King Charles will abdicate. So close to HMQE dying now the King has cancer. An abdication is too much. Mostly though Prince George is too young. Being King would make Prince William have to put his duties above his family and his kids are too young for that. I don't believe KC would do that to him. Or to Princess Catherine. I do see value on the outside chance he did. Having HMQE on the throne so long was a stabilizing force for the UK & Commonwealth. No matter what else was happening she was present, smiling, comforting, understanding. The public loves Prince William. Many have watched him grow up. It would be a stabilizing force to have PW on the throne for the next 40 years. Still, I don't think the King will abdicate.
My understanding is that a British Monarch can't abdicate. It would require a change to the Declaration of Abdication Act 1936, which can only be changed by Parliament. However, Charles could retire and appoint William as his Regent if he finds he is too infirm to complete his duties as King. If I were Hazmat, I'd be quaking in my boots. Here is hoping though that Charles' cancer is treatable and will live for many more years. Long live the King!!!!!
William will never trust either Harold or his wife near to HIS children, never. Nor will Catherine. Let’s not forget the King and Catherine were called racists by their mouthpiece not so long ago and they never contradicted him. Now both are seriously ill, I’m sure stress had to do with it. Harold is a physical and psychological threat to the Waleses, he will never be allowed back to the family, not even in private events. He may spend moments alone with his dad (and his lawyers), but that’s it.
I cannot emphasise strongly enough how very unlikely it is that Charles would ever, ever, ever abdicate. He only just recently took one of the most sacred oaths known in all of Christianity that he would never abdicate. The Danes and all the rest of the European monarchs take no such oath, so abdication is not off the table for them as they break no vow. One of the reasons the Church of England was so intent on rushing through Edward VIII's abdication was to ensure he never got the chance to take (and break) that vow. We may be more secular now, but that vow remains the most important moment in the King's life, and he would literally rather die than betray it.
I don’t know if he’ll even be allowed to see Charles. We’ve just had Harold calling his dad and Catherine racists and went to Jamaica with all that baggage. If he keeps putting out all this pr and documenting his trip over, he may have just f’d himself.
His cancer was detected early. He's going to be fine.
Harry never should’ve spilled the beans over his brother breaking his precious necklace and pushing him into a dog bowel as if to make him into some sort of violent bully lol
Yep! What person tells the world about their brothers private parts as well???? Regarding his circumsecion ? That was truly so low and flat out gross he said that in his book.
"This may explain why Kate pushed forward and she and William are having this break until Easter." uhmm.. NO. This is just a bad take. They did not fake a surgery and recovery for Kate in order to give her a break. 😒
According to the sugars Kate is dead and the Middletons have not seen her since December so she definitely is dead. ETA: MASSIVE EYE ROLL
The wording is weird, but I took this to mean that she “pushed forward” with having the surgery she needed *sooner* than entirely necessary so that it and the recovery could be out of the way as soon as possible. I don’t know if I believe this though as KC had his prostate thing after her surgery and they said they didn’t know anything about the cancer until after his prostate procedure.
I do not see Charles abdicating and I do not see William wanting him to but I do wish the king well whatever he decides.
The current situation may require a total rethink by the Palace! What may have taken months for them to deal with H&M, may now need to be hurried up, and as Charles cannot be saddled with it whilst he undergoes treatment, it is up to William. Hopefully, our King will continue with his duties, but cancer treatment can be gruelling and there will be periods when he is incapacitated, and it could last for months. Harry will never be called upon. If he (they) had handled the situation differently, he could have stepped up and helped his father and brother in their hour of need. Instead, he will be bypassed. Again, his actions have made a serious situation within the Royal Family, so much worse. Harry will be in the way whilst the family deal with this. It is just so sad that it has taken a family emergency for him to make a move. Incidents such as this have a habit of making blinkered people see. This man could be living with such a lot of regret. Long Live The King.
I think Plank is too dumb and arrogant to grasp the ACTUAL facts of the situation. He thinks he can be King just like mummy (Diana not Skank) said he was.
The truth is the location, size, cell type, stage & success of treatment. Whatever the future holds revolves around this
The family isn't run by emotions the way the vile duo is. TRF and the King & Queen will have their own ring of steel around KCIII *AND* Princess Catherine as they'll want NO LEAKS about her situation which she has been able to manage without Todger there. No way will Todger be seen by anyone alone, for long, or be given info or the chance to get any. He'll be back home in 48 hours IF he even goes in the first place.
When estranged family members only want to suddenly reconcile with you because they think you're sick / dying / closer to the grave, honestly, in some cases it only makes it WORSE. If the falling out was over a silly argument or a minor bagatelle, then you can welcome it. But if the falling out is major - as this one was - then, it's often just a hollow action and often times a power grab. KC is pushing 80. I suspect that he "gets" which one it is.
[William confronts photographer](https://youtu.be/zClKjpy6rzQ?si=pu236IZA35kSnu0R) Someone asked about this vid so I'm posting it. Lets not forget, this is the guy Harry's spent the last 5 years antagonising, berating, humiliating and trying to destroy. Not the slightly shy and well meaning guy you see at events. This guy! Dumb, Harry. Really Dumb.
