New photo and update highlight the monarch’s positive progress during
cancer treatment
Buckingham Palace has shared a fresh update that points to steady improvement
in King Charles’ health as he continues treatment. A new photograph released
on 12 November shows the monarch looking upbeat while highlighting his ongoing
work in horticulture.
The update focuses on his restoration projects at Sandringham, which are
featured in Country Life Magazine. According to the Palace, the King has spent
the past three years guiding the renewal of the estate’s gardens, bringing
historic areas back to life, redesigning formal features and adding quiet
spaces for visitors.
The piece praises his long-standing commitment to horticulture, heritage and
sustainability, which can be seen in the Topiary Garden, Acer Glade and
Magnolia Walk.
The standout moment is the image of the King himself. Wearing a powder blue
shirt and khaki trousers, he appears relaxed and energetic, countering recent
speculation about his condition and signalling that he is prepared for the
year ahead.
Supporters responded warmly to the update, with many admiring how healthy he
looks and expressing hope that 2026 will be a strong year for him.
