Poor man. I hope his prognosis is good.

Very shocked. Wishing him well.

He has prostate problems, bound to be cancer.

Willmafrockfit · 05/02/2024 18:04

william will have a lot on his plate!

JSMill · 05/02/2024 18:04

Goodness. It's not an easy time for the family.

It’s not prostate cancer.

Yes it must be a hard time for him. Such a shame he and his brother are no longer close... especially during times like this.

Ah I haven't seen any news today

It isn't anything to do with his prostate.

anotherfatyorkie · 05/02/2024 18:05

All credit to him for revealing this to raise awareness of this condition.

TheBayLady · 05/02/2024 18:05

I think Edward looks ill too. This is so unsettling

Interesting that they said it was a benign issue when they announced his planned surgery.

I think this hints at a very early diagnosis, hopefully.

I read an article actually that said some prostate cancer is caught so early it’s almost too early to treat, so you stay in a wait and watch pattern. Though obviously I don’t suppose that would be the case for the King.

I don't own a TV!

Eh no doubt he'll have the best if everything. I feel more sorry for normal people that I do him tbh.

vodkaredbullgirl · 05/02/2024 18:05

I know now just watching the news.

Prostrate problem’s don’t necessarily mean cancer either
