Unfortunately 2024 has seen one medical mishap after another for the royal family. Both King Charles and Princess Catherine are undergoing cancer treatments after being diagnosed with the disease earlier in the year.

In January the Princess of Wales underwent a planned abdominal surgery, after which test results showed the presence of cancer. She has been undergoing preventative chemotherapy since February and was seen publicly for the first time this year at last weekend’s Trooping the Colour.
