King Charles III (75) left the London Clinic today, Monday, accompanied by Queen Camilla (76), amidst an attentive audience and under close guard.

After a three-day stay in hospital and a successful procedure to treat an enlarged prostate, the 75-year-old monarch appeared visibly recovered.

Charles' release came just hours after Princess Kate left the same clinic after a two-week stay due to a planned abdominal operation.

The road had been cleared but a large crowd, including many children, had gathered to witness the moment the monarch left the clinic, according to the 'Daily Mail'.

King Charles, who ascended the throne only 16 months ago, had canceled his appointments before the treatment and took a break on the advice of his doctors.

The exact nature of his treatment has not been made public, but his openness about the diagnosis has helped encourage other men to take screening seriously.

While the King is now embarking on a period of private recovery, he is not expected to perform any public duties for up to a month.
