Charles married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981 and they had two sons, William and Harry, before separating in 1992. They divorced in 1996.
In 2005, Charles finally married long-time love Camilla Parker Bowles. He became king when his mother the Queen died in 2022. On Monday, February 5, King Charles told the world he had been diagnosed with cancer. In a statement released by Buckingham Palace, it said after undergoing tests that "a form of cancer" was found.
His Majesty did not immediately specify which type of cancer it is. The statement read: "During The King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer."
