King Charles: Severe side effect during cancer treatment
In an interview with British army veteran Aaron Mapplebeck, as reported by the Daily Mail, Charles disclosed a surprising detail about his health—he has lost his sense of taste due to cancer treatment. This revelation caught many off guard, as Buckingham Palace had not previously released specific details about his illness, only stating that he is undergoing treatment for an undisclosed form of cancer.
The day witnessed not only King Charles' candid revelation but also the formal transfer of command of the Army Air Corps to Prince William (41). This event marked a rare public appearance of both King Charles and Prince William together.
The Army Air Corps, integral to the British Army's air combat operations, holds significant military importance. Previously, Prince Harry (39) served as an Apache helicopter pilot in the regiment during his deployment in Afghanistan. The decision to appoint Prince William to this role followed Harry's withdrawal from royal duties in 2020.
