This Friday, January 26, 2024, King Charles III was hospitalized in the same clinic as the Princess of Wales, his daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton. While the sovereign is due to undergo prostate surgery, he took advantage of being in the same facility to visit the mother of his grandchildren and also thanked the British people for their support.
On Wednesday January 17, 2024, an official press release announced the upcoming hospitalization of the Princess of Wales and wife of Prince William, Kate Middleton, for a “planned abdominal operation“. A somewhat mysterious announcement since no other information was disclosed apart from the words of the press release: “The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate. She hopes the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normalcy as possible for her children; and his wish that his personal medical information remain confidential. » An operation which ultimately went very well, but which still required 10 to 14 days of convalescence within the hospital structure.
Shortly after, it was the turn of King Charles III to also announce a future surgical intervention for an enlarged prostate. At 75 years old, the sovereign arrived this Friday, January 26 at the London Clinic, where his daughter-in-law is also hospitalized, accompanied by his wife, Queen Camilla, who wanted to be present to support him.

But this is not the only support the monarch benefits from, in fact since the announcement of his operation many British people have been keen to send him messages of support as revealed in a press release from Buckingham: “The king was admitted to a London hospital this morning for a planned operation. Her Majesty would like to thank everyone who sent her well wishes last week and is delighted to learn that her diagnosis has had a positive impact on prevention and public health“.
But before undergoing surgery, the royal couple made a point of visiting another patient at the establishment, their daughter-in-law, the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton. If for ordinary mortals visiting a member of their family seems to be normal, this is not the case for members of the royal family. Indeed, British experts explain that royalty are not supposed to visit each other even when one of them is hospitalized since they are obliged to remain in their role and not show too much of affection. Generally, visits are then made when they return home. We have very rarely seen Queen Elizabeth II visit her husband, Prince Philip, when he was hospitalized. A behavior of the monarch which shows to what extent he holds his daughter-in-law in esteem.
A few hours later, when Queen Camilla left, she wanted to reassure the press and fans present in front of the hospital: King Charles III’s operation went well and she concluded with a “He’s fine, thank you!»
