King Charles III was on Friday admitted to a London hospital for scheduled surgery, Buckingham Palace said, a week after revealing the British monarch would be treated for an enlarged prostate.
Buckingham Palace earlier announced that he would head to the hospital for a “corrective procedure” to treat the benign condition. Images released online shows the King being driven in London after he travelled from his royal residence in Sandringham on Thursday.
The Palace has since confirmed that he was admitted to a London hospital for treatment this morning. The statement read: “The King was this morning admitted to a London hospital for scheduled treatment. His Majesty would like to thank all those who have sent their good wishes over the past week and is delighted to learn that his diagnosis is having a positive impact on public health awareness.”
The King is said to be looking forward to getting back to work after he was forced to cancel several engagements as he prepares for the procedure this week.

King Charles has been spotted this morning heading to hospital ahead of treatment for an enlarged prostate.
Buckingham Palace earlier announced that he would head to the hospital for a “corrective procedure” to treat the benign condition. Images released online shows the King being driven in London after he travelled from his royal residence in Sandringham on Thursday.
The Palace has since confirmed that he was admitted to a London hospital for treatment this morning. The statement read: “The King was this morning admitted to a London hospital for scheduled treatment. His Majesty would like to thank all those who have sent their good wishes over the past week and is delighted to learn that his diagnosis is having a positive impact on public health awareness.”
The King is said to be looking forward to getting back to work after he was forced to cancel several engagements as he prepares for the procedure this week.
In an earlier statement, the Palace said: “In common with thousands of men each year, The King has sought treatment for an enlarged prostate. His Majesty’s condition is benign and he will attend hospital next week for a corrective procedure. The King’s public engagements will be postponed for a short period of recuperation.”
