Reports suggest that King Charles, at 75, is struggling to keep up with royal duties as his health shows signs of decline.
Despite his reported illness, the monarch recently completed an intense 11-day tour across Australia and Samoa, where he met officials, attended numerous public engagements, and faced protests—all while allegedly postponing his cancer treatment.
Health Concerns Heightened During Tour
During the trip, insiders noted that King Charles appeared notably frail, sparking concern about his physical condition. To address potential health emergencies, he traveled with two personal physicians, one carrying a medical bag reportedly containing his own blood for transfusions if needed. An ambulance was on standby at all times throughout his travels.
Alarming Signs Observed
Observers have pointed out visible signs of distress, particularly King Charles’s red and inflamed lips—symptoms some medical experts associate with chemotherapy treatments. Sources told RadarOnline.com that, despite his efforts to maintain a “business as usual” demeanor, his health issues are hard to hide.
Courtiers Express Growing Worries
Insiders have expressed concern that King Charles may be prioritizing his royal responsibilities over his health. “It’s clear he’s sicker than he lets on,” shared one source. “Anyone can see he’s not well. His sore lips and ruddy complexion have caused people to take a step back. Courtiers worry he’s putting the kingdom first and neglecting his own health.”
Rumors circulated that Charles seemed noticeably frail, merely smiling, shaking hands, and nodding politely as Queen Camilla, 77, took on a more animated role in public. The couple participated in various engagements, including a visit to an Indigenous community center, a barbecue, and an inspection of the navy fleet. However, on his doctors’ recommendation, King Charles ultimately canceled the planned New Zealand leg of the tour.
