King Charles is feeling frustrated because he believes he is letting down fans of the royal family after cancer diagnosis an insider has claimed.
Despite the heartbreaking news, His Majesty, renowned for his penchant for letter writing, has persisted in sending notes to his closest loved ones in the weeks and months that followed.
According to one recipient, he has mentioned his “somewhat battered health” in the letters, yet they remain optimistic and “filled with light.” The letters convey his “determination” to overcome the condition, with one correspondent noting they are “abundant in exclamation marks,” particularly when discussing his recovery.
Speaking about his three-month hiatus from public duties, one friendly source told The Times: “He has been frustrated, because there is still so much he wants to achieve. He holds himself to very high standards of public service and genuinely feels he’s letting people and organisations down if he’s not out there doing all those public bits of his formal role.”
Another friend chimed in, saying: “He’s a bloody caged lion, driving everyone round the twist if he’s stuck at home.”
Just days after returning to public duties this week, the king made a surprise visit to one of his late mother’s favourite events – where he received a warm welcome from his niece Zara Tindall.
The monarch was spotted at the Royal Windsor Horse Show yesterday, which is taking place close to his Windsor Castle residence. The annual event was one of the late Queen’s favourites, with her attending almost every year since she was a young girl until her death in 2022. T
Today Charles beamed as he braved the wet weather to tour some of the showgrounds, where some of his horses in action.
