STV News | King to pause cancer treatment while on royal tour @stvnews | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
If you speak to any courtier in the Royal Household, they will acknowledge that the man they call “the boss” is not very good at slowing down.

King Charles is famously a workaholic, and one senior royal aide said to me recently he had been “chewing the carpet” during the early weeks of his cancer treatment when he was not allowed to carry out public duties.

This gave the King’s doctors a bit of a dilemma when they were consulted about the King and Queen’s planned royal tour to Australia and New Zealand this Autumn.
