NextImg:King Charles says he’s reduced to tears over cancer support as he returns to work

King Charles is back to work following news of his cancer diagnosis.

The monarch, 75, held his first in-person meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak at Buckingham Palace on Wednesday.

Charles, who has been undergoing treatment at his Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, had his first face-to-face meeting with the politician, 43, since his illness became public earlier this month.

The former Prince of Wales was welled up with emotion when he saw the P.M., thanking him for his support.

According to social media footage, Sunak said it was “wonderful” to see Charles seemingly looking healthy and fit at their meeting.

“It’s all done with mirrors,” Charles joked.

“Well, we’re all behind you. The country’s behind you,” Sunak said.

The sovereign then replied: “I’ve had so many wonderful messages and cards. It’s reduced me to tears most of the time.”

“I hear there’s been a lot more attention and interest on those main, wonderful cancer charities, many of which I’ve been patron for years,” Charles quipped.

“They do incredible work up and down the country,” Sunak said, to which the King responded: “They do, they do.”

During an enlarged prostate procedure, a strain of cancer was detected in Charles’ system.

Charles’s specific form of cancer has not been disclosed. However, Buckingham Palace clarified it is not prostate cancer, according to the BBC.

Charles broke his silence regarding his cancer on Feb. 10.

“I would like to express my most heartfelt thanks for the many messages of support and good wishes I have received in recent days,” the King said in the statement.

“As all those who have been affected by cancer will know, such kind thoughts are the greatest comfort and encouragement.”

“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 organizations which support cancer patients and their families across the U.K. and wider world.”

He added: “My lifelong admiration for their tireless care and dedication is all the greater as a result of my own personal experience.”
