A hectic schedule awaits King Charles in 2025,starting with a solo trip to Poland tomorrow for the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz.He will then be progressing to an Italian visit months later, where he'll have an audience with the Pope.
His royal responsibilities, alongside numerous appearances across the UK, ensure a bustling year ahead.Contrastingly, this time last year presented health concerns, with a hospital visit for a benign, enlarged prostate treatment coming to light shortly after news that Charles had abdominal surgery.
A further blow came with the palace revealing the King's cancer diagnosis, specifying a different form of the disease, not related to the prostate.
Despite taking a brief step back for treatment, the tenacious monarch returned to his duties rapidly, completing an extensive tour of Australia and Samoa last autumn.
