King Charles III was hospitalised on Thursday after experiencing side effects from cancer treatment.

“Following scheduled and ongoing medical treatment for cancer this morning, The King experienced temporary side effects that required a short period of observation in hospital. His Majesty’s afternoon engagements were therefore postponed,” a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace told the Sun on Thursday.

The spokesperson added, “”His Majesty has now returned to Clarence House and as a precautionary measure, acting on medical advice, tomorrow’s diary programme will also be rescheduled.

“His Majesty would like to send his apologies to all those who may be inconvenienced or disappointed as a result.”

According to the Sun, the monarch was taken to the hospital by car, not by an emergency vehicle.
