His comments were made during an appearance on comic actor Eugene Levy\u2019s travel series, and he told the celebrity: \u201cWe\u2019ve been very lucky, we hadn\u2019t had many illnesses in the family for a very long time.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy grandparents lived until they were in the high 90s. So, they were the vision of fitness, and stoicism, and resilience if you like. So we\u2019ve been very lucky as a family.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a preview of the upcoming episode from The Reluctant Traveller, Living The Royal Life In The UK, William added: \u201cBut I think, when you suddenly realise that the rug if you were, the metaphorical rug, can be pulled from under your feet quite quick at any point.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou maybe think to yourself \u2018It won\u2019t happen to us, we\u2019ll be okay\u2019. Because I think everyone has a positive outlook, you\u2019ve got to be positive. But when it does happen to you, then it takes you into some pretty not great places.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\nThe King, pictured during a reception for his Charitable Fund at Clarence House, has been receiving ongoing cancer treatment since early 2024 (Yui Mok\/PA)<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
In March 2024, Kate revealed in a video that she was receiving treatment for cancer, while it was announced in early February Charles had also been diagnosed with the disease.<\/p>\n
The princess confirmed in January that she was in remission, sharing a personal message on social media following a visit to the Royal Marsden Hospital in Chelsea, south-west London, where she was treated.<\/p>\n
Kate said: \u201cIt is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focused on recovery.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\nActor Eugene Levy with William at Windsor Castle (Ian Gavan\/AppleTV+\/PA)<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Charles is receiving ongoing treatment for an undisclosed type of cancer but has maintained his official duties both at home and abroad.<\/p>\n
During the episode from Levy\u2019s Apple TV+ series, William invites the actor to Windsor Castle and gives him a guided tour of the royal residence, takes him for a walk with the royal\u2019s dog and they end up chatting over a pint in a local pub.<\/p>\n
The prince is first seen arriving on an electric scooter, which surprises Levy and he tells his host: \u201cI have a very low threshold for adventure. So I\u2019ve actually never been on one of these.\u201d<\/p>\n
William replies: \u201cIt gets around quite nicely around here, it\u2019s quite fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
