‘Incurable': Palace insider shares heartbreaking King Charles cancer update
King Charles' cancer is reportedly 'incurable', according to a palace insider.
The beloved monarch, 76, first told the public that he was battling cancer just over 18 months ago.
Despite putting on a brave face for the public, royal insider Camilla Tominey has revealed that sources have told her that while Charles' cancer is currently under control, it is ultimately incurable.
'The talk now is that he may die 'with' cancer, but not 'of' cancer following a rigorous treatment program,' she revealed in The Telegraph.
Tominey, who was the first reporter to break the news of Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton's falling out, went on to confirm that, with the expectation that the King's cancer can be kept at bay, there are currently 'tentative' plans in place for Charles' 80th birthday in 2028.
Tominey also claimed that Charles would never move into Buckingham Palace due to his health struggles. He currently lives at Clarence House with his wife, Queen Camilla.
The palace is unlikely to welcome Tominey's report, according to the Daily Beast, as it will likely reignite rumours about the King's fragile health.
The fresh claims about Charles' health come after his son, Prince Harry, sparked speculation when he said in a BBC interview that he wasn't sure how much time his father had left.
The last time Charles addressed his cancer journey was mere weeks ago, when he told a royal fan that he was 'on the other side' of his health crisis.
Elsewhere in Tominey's report, the royal reporter claimed that King Charles and Prince Harry's much-talked-about reunion could finally happen at the Invictus Games in Birmingham, UK, in 2027.
It's believed that palace aides are currently investigating how a potential reunion could work, and are hopeful it would also involve Harry and Meghan's children, Prince Archie and Lilibet, who the King hasn't seen since 2022.
Charles was first diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in February last year and has been undergoing treatment as an outpatient ever since.
He was forced to cancel all public-facing duties for several weeks, but returned in April and has since travelled – including to Australia last October – and hosted incoming state visits for international dignitaries, all while continuing his recovery.
While it's not clear what type of cancer the King has, it's previously been reported that it was caught at a very early stage.

Meghan confirmed for upcoming royal clash
IN LONDON Meghan has been confirmed as a guest of honour at a glitzy, black-tie event in Los Angeles as her husband's family steps out for one of the biggest days on the royal calendar. There will once again be a Sussex/royal diary clash on Saturday as the duchess attends the Museum of Natural History's Night of Wonder gala on the same day as Trooping the Colour, the King's official birthday celebrations, take place in London. Meghan will be honoured for her charity work and give a speech at the star-studded event, which is focusing on advancing community wellbeing and increasing opportunities for the disadvantaged. It's not yet been made clear whether Prince Harry will also attend. Meanwhile, the royal family will take part in the annual Trooping parade, which takes place every June, before making an appearance on the Buckingham Palace balcony for a Royal Air Force fly-past. It's expected that Prince William, Kate, the Princess of Wales, and their three children – Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince George, 6 – will join the King and Queen and other senior royals for the occasion, which draws a crowd of thousands to The Mall. The latest schedule clash comes after Harry popped up in China last month to deliver a keynote speech at a sustainable travel forum on the same day as his father and stepmother's high-profile whistlestop tour of Canada kicked off. It's understood the relationship between the Duke of Sussex and his family are at an all-time-low, with Harry even giving a no-holds-barred interview with the BBC in early May. In it, he revealed the King no longer takes his calls, that he doesn't know 'how long he has left' amid his cancer battle, and then asked his family for 'reconciliation'. Meanwhile, news of Meghan's outing this weekend comes just days after she divided followers with the release of a throwback video in honour of her and Harry's daughter's fourth birthday, which featured the pair of them taking part in a viral TikTok dance challenge in the birthing suite on the day she was born. 'Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates … so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work – there was only one thing left to do!' she captioned the video of the couple dancing to the 'Baby Mama Dance Song'.
