- Replies 0
Recent comments made by King Charles during a royal engagement have sparked concern among royal observers, leaving many wondering about his health.
What seemed like a casual exchange with a well-wisher quickly took a surprising turn, raising more questions than answers.
Now, as speculation swirls, the monarch’s offhand remark has become the focus of renewed public scrutiny.
During a recent royal outing, King Charles made a comment that left fans uneasy about his well-being.
While attending the Maundy Thursday service at Durham Cathedral on 17 April, the king was approached by a well-wisher who remarked on his health.
The monarch, 76, responded to the compliment with an unexpected remark: ‘It’s all smoke and mirrors’.
Pat Johnson, the fan who spoke to King Charles, shared the exchange.
She recalled that the king had approached her to meet her Corgi pup, Lilibet, whom she had named after the late Queen Elizabeth II.
‘He asked me if she was friendly and he asked me her name,’ Johnson said.
‘I said she was named after the late Queen,’ she added.
When Johnson told the king he looked well, he replied: ‘You are very kind, it’s all smoke and mirrors.’
This comment has raised alarms as it came amid reports of the king undergoing cancer treatment.
In January 2024, King Charles was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer, and he had been receiving treatment ever since.
He had been briefly hospitalised due to temporary side effects from his routine cancer treatments, but reports confirmed he recovered quickly from the adverse reaction.
Despite his health challenges, King Charles resumed his royal duties earlier this month.
He and Queen Camilla appeared in good spirits during a visit to Italy, where they celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary.
In a previous story, King Charles also stirred speculation after a cryptic post appeared on social media.
The teaser left many royal watchers guessing about its meaning and timing.
