Following the announcement of King Charles’ cancer diagnosis, palace officials are reportedly updating his funeral plans frequently. The plans for the king’s funeral have been underway since the day after Queen Elizabeth II was buried in September 2022. The king has stayed out of the public eye since announcing his illness, and according to a Daily Beast source, the king’s health is “not good.” “Of course, he is determined to beat it and they are throwing everything at it. Everyone is staying optimistic, but he is really very unwell. More than they are letting on,” shared a source described as an old royal family friend. The 75-year-old monarch has not revealed what form of cancer he is battling, but it was confirmed that it was not prostate cancer. King Charles’ staff are reportedly regularly reviewing the lengthy document outlining his funeral plans, dubbed “Operation Menai Bridge.” Military officials confirmed with The Daily Beast that “Menai Bridge” is being updated regularly but emphasized that this is standard procedure. They also said it would be “absurd to read anything into” this as they are simply following protocol.
