The British royal family is going through a particularly delicate moment. It was in the middle of last January when the news came to light that Kate Middleton had undergone abdominal surgery. The same day, the news came to light that Carlos III suffers from cancer. An illness that Middleton also suffers from, as she herself revealed last Friday. Now, Peter Phillips, the nephew of King Charles III, has revealed that the monarch is in “good spirits” but that his recovery is taking “a little longer” than expected.
It is not an easy time for the Windsors. Two of their most beloved members are separated from their responsibilities as members of the royal family due to cancer. Following Kate Middleton’s announcement, Peter Phillips, nephew of Charles III, assures that his uncle is “hugely frustrated” because he cannot go out and do everything he wants, as reported by the Daily Mail this Sunday.
The only son of Princess Anne and her first husband, Captain Mark Phillips, added that his uncle is “pragmatic” and knows he needs to “focus on himself” for a while to improve. Peter, 46, visited Australia as a patron of the ISPS Handa charity, and told Sky News AU that the king is “pressuring” his staff to allow him to resume more royal duties, defying advice from his team. doctor.
“He’s in a good mood, but in the end he’s very frustrated,” the man said. “He’s frustrated because he can’t go ahead and do everything he wants,” he continued to explain. “He’s very pragmatic, he understands that there’s a period of time where he really needs to focus on himself. But at the same time he’s always pushing his staff and everyone (his doctors and nurses) to say, ‘Can I do this?’ ‘Can I do that?'” he revealed.
“I think the overriding message is that he obviously really wants to get back to some form of normality and is probably frustrated that his recovery is taking a little longer than he would like,” said the royal family member, who also spoke about Kate’s illness. Phillips thinks she and Guillermo “did it right” balancing their public life and their family life.
In one of her last public appearances, Queen Camilla assured that King Charles “is very well.” During a public event in Northern Ireland she said that the sovereign, who has been receiving treatment for cancer, was “disappointed” at not being able to accompany her there. It should be remembered that Camila has now assumed more royal commitments due to the absence of Charles III and Kate Middleton.
