Charles is “still very sick,” according to royal specialists, despite the appearance that he “is on the mend.”
Plans for the king’s d3ath, known as Operation Menai Bridge, are well under way, with the 75-year-old royal battling canc3r and “d3ath being a possibility.”
After Queen Elizabeth II took the throne in 1952, preparations for Operation London Bridge began. Details such as her d3ath announcement, sorrow, state funeral, and King Charles III’s accession to the throne were all part of the plan, which served as a codename for the operations that would transpire following her passing.
After being crowned in May 2023, in January 2024, Charles had a “corrective procedure” to cure a benign enlargement of his prostate.
Just one month following his surgery, in February, the palace said that the canc3r, not the prostate, had been found.
“I would like to express my most heartfelt thanks for the many messages of support and good wishes…As all those who have been affected by canc3r will know, such kind thoughts are the greatest comfort and encouragement,” Charles announced.
“It is equally heartening to hear how sharing my own diagnosis has helped promote public understanding and shine a light on the work of all those organisations which support canc3r patients and their families across the UK and wider world. My lifelong admiration for their tireless care and dedication is all the greater as a result of my own personal experience.”
As the monarch underwent treatment for an undiscovered kind of canc3r, his eldest son Prince William assumed more royal duties and provided emotional support to his wife Kate, who revealed her own illness diagnosis in March 2024.
What happens when he di3s?
Prince William, the presumed heir to the British throne, will succeed his father Charles as king, and his bride Kate Middleton will serve as queen consort.
The late monarch will most likely be laid to rest in the royal vault in the monarch George VI Memorial Chapel at Windsor Castle, where he will lay in state throughout the period of mourning at the Palace of Westminster.
The royal family will be prepared for a fitting funeral when the time comes.
“The palace is giving the impression that Charles is on the mend, but he’s still very sick,” an insider tells In Touch in an August 2024 interview.
“Officials will make sure a funeral for the king meets his wishes and expectations while following proper protocol.”
