King Charles III “is strong” in the face of a “terrifying disease,” according to his son-in-law, Tom Parker Bowles.
Queen Camilla’s son told People how the monarch, 76 next month, “is doing what he can” after Charles reportedly stopped his cancer treatment to go on a tour of Australia and Samoa.
“It’s a terrifying disease, and when someone close to you gets it in whatever capacity, it’s a very worrying thing,” he said.

“But my mother is strong as well. She supports him in every way. I think it’s wonderful to have someone you love by your side.”
“He is doing what he can,” Parker Bowles continued. “He’s following the advice of his doctors. Fingers crossed, touch wood.”
