Buckingham Palace stunned the world this week by announcing that King Charles has been diagnosed with a form of cancer.
The King had already made headlines after being treated for an enlarged prostate, a procedure that has led to this new and more serious diagnosis.
Only 17 months into his reign, what does this health crisis mean for our Head of State, and for the wider monarchy that now has two senior royals off duties for very different health reasons.
Today on The Front Page, we’re joined from London by UK correspondent Gavin Grey for the latest on this new royal shock.
