A Right Royal Podcast: inside King Charles' cancer diagnosis

We sit down with our very own Royal Editor, Emily, who discusses why specifics of King Charles’ cancer diagnosis are being kept secret, why King Charles’ duties won’t be reduced following cancer diagnosis - and fills Emmy in about what exactly a Regency is, and if one will be put into place following King Charles’ cancer diagnosis.

The pair are then joined by royal journalist and author Robert Jobson, who shares his thoughts on Prince Harry flying from the USA to visit his dad, and why the visit would have had something of a mixed response from the royal family, as well as how Prince William is holding up the fort - and how Queen Camilla is doing following her husband’s diagnosis.
