King Charles Resumes Public Duties After Brief Hospitalization

The monarch returned to work at Windsor Castle following treatment side effects as preparations continue for next week’s state visit to Italy.

King Charles presided over an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle on April 1, marking his return to public engagements after a brief hospital stay on March 27.
The hospitalization was due to temporary side effects from his ongoing weekly cancer treatment, which were described as a 'minor bump' in his recovery journey.
The King spent a restful weekend at Highgrove before resuming duties, with his medical team closely monitoring his health and adjusting his schedule as needed.
Some engagements have been rescheduled to prioritize his recovery ahead of a state visit to Italy starting April 7, though a planned Vatican visit has been postponed due to Pope Francis' health.
The King is expected to carry out regular duties this week, including his weekly meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other official engagements at Buckingham Palace.
