King Charles’ cancer recovery process is “taking a little longer” than assumed, according to royal family member Peter Phillips.<\/p>\n
Phillips, the only son of Princess Anne and her first husband, Captain Mark Phillips, admitted that His Majesty is having some difficulty with the pace of his healing time.<\/p>\n
“I think, ultimately, he’s hugely frustrated,” Phillips told Sky News Australia. “He’s frustrated that he can’t get on and do everything that he wants to be able to do.”<\/p>\n

A “separate issue of concern” was identified during Charles’ “benign prostate enlargement” procedure at the London Clinic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,” the palace said in a statement at the time.<\/p>\n
The monarch was “advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties” while undergoing a series of “regular treatments,” a statement from the palace said. It’s unclear what cancer diagnosis Charles received.<\/p>\n

He is always pushing his staff and everybody \u2013 his doctors and nurses \u2013 to be able to say ‘actually can I do this, can I do that?’<\/p>\n

Buckingham Palace did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.<\/p>\n

It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment. But, most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be ok.<\/p>\n
“As I have said to them; I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirits. Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance too. As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both.”<\/p>\n
“The Princess will return to official duties when she is cleared to do so by her medical team,” a Kensington Palace spokesperson told Fox News Digital. “She is in good spirits and is focused on making a full recovery.”<\/p>\n
