CHARLES IN CRISIS

His ‘work until he drops’ mantra has caused the King to collapse

- 

After a health scare last week, the King is being urged to ease back on his workload and think about handing over some of his duties to his sister-in-law Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.

There were concerns for His Majesty's wellbeing after he had to return to hospital for observation several hours after undergoing his regular cancer treatment, apparently due to suffering from temporary side effects.

Buckingham Palace said the issues were “a minor bump in the road” and he’d return to “business as usual” after a pre-scheduled break.
