King Charles’ funeral plans reportedly being updated regularly after cancer diagnosis: ‘He is really very unwell’

King Charles’ health conditions are progressively deteriorating, leading Buckingham Palace officials to keep a regularly updated plan for his impending funeral — preparations for which started the day after Queen Elizabeth was buried, insiders said.

The 75-year-old monarch has remained largely out of the limelight since announcing his cancer prognosis in February to hide his declining condition, with multiple sources telling the Daily Beast the situation is “not good.”

“Of course he is determined to beat it and they are throwing everything at it. Everyone is staying optimistic, but he is really very unwell. More than they are letting on,” a source described as an old friend of the royal family told the outlet.

King Charles has never revealed what cancer he has been diagnosed with but admitted that it wasn’t prostate cancer, which is one of the most treatable forms of the disease.

The Firm has also been tight-lipped on his medical journey, but well-placed insiders and political commentators have publicly spoken about how the king is “responding really well” to treatment.

Behind the scenes, however, King Charles’ aides are regularly reviewing copies of a several-hundred-page document outlining his royal funeral plans, dubbed “Operation Menai Bridge.”

“The plans have been dusted off and are actively being kept up to date. It’s no more than what you would expect given the king has been diagnosed with cancer. But the circulation of them has certainly focused minds,” a former staffer with links to the serving courtiers told the Daily Beast.

I read that Mrs. Harkle’s Jams are going to sell for “three figures”. I guess she isn’t interested in selling her wares to the “little people”. It was also noted that she doesn’t have ingredients listed on the label, so who knows what is in it? Guess I’ll stick with Smuckers!

He looks like a smaller version of one of the Russian generals on the balcony in Red Square!

Meghan (UGH) Markle’s theme song.
Can’t stand either her or” Hasbeen.”

She is a complete embarrassment to the US.

Queen Victoria was 81 when she died. Before her, George III also died at 81; they were the first British monarchs to live into their 80s. Edward VII was 68 when he died.

naturalman has always said he never wanted to be king, but viewed it as his eventual duty.
