Charles’s appearance and cheerful manner will come as a relief to many and suggest that he is making positive progress after almost three months of cancer care as an outpatient.
At his visit to University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre on Tuesday, the King spoke of his ‘shock’ at being diagnosed with cancer as he met fellow patients.
Charles candidly described the experience of being told he had the disease, as he learned about the latest treatments and chat to staff providing the pioneering care.
He also reassured those who asked about the state of his health, saying: ‘I’m well.’

The King, who looked relaxed and in good spirits, was joined on the visit by Camilla, and went on impromptu walkabouts, meeting staff who had stopped to catch a glimpse of the royal couple.
In another engagement on Wednesday, Charles viewed his Coronation Roll at Buckingham Palace in what was his second public-facing event since his diagnosis.
He told those who created the historic document that ‘you deserve a very stiff drink’. Charles viewed the roll with Camilla, and marvelled at the handwritten and lavishly decorated artefact.
