King Charles has recorded a personal video message about his cancer experience, which will air Friday evening at 8pm as part of the Stand Up To Cancer campaign by Cancer Research UK and Channel 4. The monarch, who turned 77 in November 2025, was diagnosed with an unspecified form of cancer in February 2024 and will discuss his recovery journey and stress the importance of early cancer screening. The message, filmed at Clarence House in late November, is a significant public statement from the monarch about his health as part of a national health campaign.
