On Saturday, the 75-year-old monarch released a statement thanking his supporters for their well-wishes after his health news.
The King expressed his heartfelt gratitude for the many messages he received, stating that such kind thoughts are the most incredible comfort and encouragement for cancer patients.
Sharing my own diagnosis has helped promote public understanding and shine a light on the work of all those organizations that support cancer patients and their families.

The King was diagnosed with cancer on Monday, a week after leaving the London Clinic, where he received treatment for an enlarged prostate on Jan. 26.

Buckingham Palace stated earlier this week that a separate issue of concern was noted during The King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, and subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer.
The King has started receiving regular medical treatments and has been advised by doctors to postpone public duties. However, he will continue to carry out State business and official paperwork as usual.
The King is thankful to his medical team for their quick intervention, which was possible due to his recent hospital procedure. The statement said he is optimistic about his treatment and hopes to return to whole public duty soon.
His Majesty shared his diagnosis to prevent speculation and to help those affected by cancer understand.
