King Charles reappeared at Buckingham Palace, where he received war veterans to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Korean War.
The monarch was all smiles as he greeted veterans before a reception held at the Palace today.
How is King Charles doing?
King Charles III is doing well but has been the subject of persistent rumors since he was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.
In February, Buckingham Palace issued a statement reporting that, following a hospital procedure for an enlarged prostate, doctors discovered a form of cancer, although the specific type was not disclosed.
On Monday, March 18, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was forced to declare that the king was still alive as an unfounded rumor, fueled by Russian accounts, gained traction on social media claiming that Charles had passed away.

However, as we can see from the photographs published this Tuesday, King Charles III is not dead.
This speculation about the King’s death followed an equally unfounded rumor that spread online over the weekend, which suggested that Buckingham Palace was preparing to make an “extremely important royal announcement.”
The Royal Family has been the subject of wild speculation over the past month, especially about the whereabouts of Kate Middleton, who had not been seen since Christmas.
A few days ago things took a turn for the worse when Kensington Palace released a photo to commemorate Mother’s Day, featuring Kate with Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis and Prince George, in an apparent attempt to put an end to questions about her absence.
However, the photo was “dismissed” by news agencies, with obvious signs of manipulation. A statement was later issued on Kate’s behalf saying that she had edited the photo herself.
This reappearance of King Charles comes hours after a video was released of Princess Kate and Prince William shopping at Windsor Farm Shop.
