Since Buckingham Palace announced in February that King Charles had cancer, not much has been commented about his health. However, a new story from the Daily Beast says that Charles, 75, is not doing very well and that the plans for his funeral are being looked at and changed.

A person who is said to be a family friend told the news source that everyone is trying to stay “optimistic” and Charles is “determined to beat it.” But at the same time, “he is really very unwell,” the person said.
