Royal news – live: King Charles reveals new cancer side effect as war of words with Prince Harry erupts
Prince Harry and King Charles just missed each other after the Duke of Sussex flew into London for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games
King Charles today revealed he has lost his sense of taste during his treatment for cancer.
The monarch, 75, was speaking to British Army veteran and cancer survivor Aaron Mapplebeck while visiting the Army Flying Museum in Middle Wallop, Hampshire, this afternoon where the pair both discussed the side effects of treatment.
Charles arrived by helicopter for the special ceremony with Prince William where he officially handed over command of Prince Harry’s former regiment.
Meanwhile, a war of words has erupted between Harry and the King’s camps over last week’s Invictus Games Foundation event.
Harry reportedly did not make a request to visit Charles or invite him to the event when he flew into London, sources claim. But the Duke of Sussex’s friends claimed he was left stung when his father didn’t request to see him but was able to attend a garden party at Buckingham Palace – despite his cancer treatment.
“It’s all very sad,” said a friend of Charles, according to The Times. “While he was hardly going to roll out the red carpet the moment this Invictus trip was announced, with doctors advising him to focus on his treatment and recovery, the idea that he refused to find space in his diary…Well, let’s say recollections may vary once again.”
