A few weeks ago, we were told that King Charles was preparing for his funeral. After his cancer diagnosis, it was unknown whether he would be continuing with his royal duties or not. Things have now changed.
Although not much has been said by the palace as far as updates on the king are concerned, there has been some news shared by those who are close to the royal family. One thing that we do know is that King Charles is splitting his time between London, as that is where he is getting treatments, and the royal estate of Sandringham.
We know that it is a difficult time for the royal family, as both he and the Princess have been given a cancer diagnosis. One thing that we are told, however, is that his health is not doing well and they are keeping much of it hidden behind the scenes.
Something else that we have heard is that the aides to the king are updating his funeral plans regularly. They are referring to it by the codename, ‘Operation Menai Bridge’ at this time.
Everybody is trying to remain as positive as possible but he is not doing well according to reports. They are minimizing the impact by revealing as little as possible.
Considering King Charles’ age and his health status, it’s understandable that they would begin considering funeral arrangements. They want to give him a grand sendoff, but up until that time, his health continues to be of primary concern.
Another issue is Prince Harry, as he and Megan Markle moved to the United States and are estranged from the family. King Charles reportedly wanted to see them in the children, so he extended an olive branch.
It remains to be seen what will happen with the royal family, but our thoughts are with them during this difficult time.
