King Charles resting in hospital after successful medical treatment

The King has spent a night in hospital after undergoing treatment for an enlarged prostate.

His Majesty underwent a procedure on January 26th and could spend up to two nights under medical supervision before returning home.

The King arrived at hospital on the morning of January 26th with Queen Camilla at his side.

Her Majesty left the hospital around six hours later and told wellwishers that her husband was ”fine”.

King Charles was treated for the enlarged prostate at the London Clinic where the Princess of Wales remains following major surgery ten days ago.

It is understood Their Majesties visited the Princess before King Charles was formally admitted as a patient for his own treatment.
