King Charles is releasing a 'personal message' about his cancer diagnosis today

Posted by Martha on December 12, 2025, 5:34 am

Charles's address will be shown as part of 'Stand Up To Cancer 2025', a joint campaign by Cancer Research UK and Channel 4.

The King, 77, was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of the disease in early 2024 and has been receiving weekly treatment ever since.

Despite this he has continued with a packed working diary, with five state visits this year alone.

In his message, the monarch will stress the importance of cancer screening programmes in enabling early diagnosis and will 'reflect on his own recovery journey'.

It was recorded during the last week of November in the Morning Room at Clarence House.

This year's Stand Up To Cancer event is designed to drive awareness of the importance of early diagnosis, as well as raising funds for cancer research and support all those affected by the illness.

His Majesty's message will form part of Channel 4's flagship night of programmes and will be aired at 8pm, shortly before a unique live broadcast from a cancer clinic at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, presented by presenter Davina McCall, who was herself recently treated for breast cancer.

And at almost the exact same moment Meghan announces she's "executive producer" on a documentary about Girl Scout Cookies. Apparently she came in to the project very, very late, after principal photography.

I've reposted your link in the current Harkles thread as we can easily go off on them on this thread instead of concentrating on the King's announcement.

His cancer treatment is being reduced as he’s been responding well to treatment.

It is good news. The fact that HM has weathered through the diagnosis and treatment with all the stress that has been thrown at him, is a marvel. Just dealing with family matters alone is more than enough.
