What they’re saying:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fox News Senior White House Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich asked President Trump Sunday morning if the shooting would have any affect on any of the plans involving King Charles and his visit to various U.S. states this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s a big question to ask,” Trump said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“First of all, King Charles is coming, and he’s a great guy. And, we look forward to it. He’s really a fantastic person and a tremendous representative. And he’s brave. You know, he’s fought something that’s very tough to fight. He’s got a\u00a0 problem with, as you know, that very well documented, problem with his health. And he’s been amazing, actually. He’s very brave, actually. And he’s a friend of mine for a long time. So he’s coming, and we’re going to have a great time. And, he represents his nation like nobody else can do it,” Trump said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

King Charles health<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The backstory:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As Trump mentioned in his interview with FOX News, Charles, 77, announced in February 2024 that he had been diagnosed with cancer, and, in a break from centuries of secrecy about royal health, he has since spoken about the illness, using his story to promote cancer awareness and treatment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But the king has never revealed what type of cancer he has or the kind of treatment he is receiving. The palace said this was an intentional decision designed to ensure his message reaches the widest possible audience.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Last December, Charles\u00a0said his treatment was being reduced<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
