While it might be a coincidence that they were treated at the same London hospital, King Charles's decision to spend time at Kate's bedside, accompanied by Queen Camilla, breaks Royal tradition. Her Majesty's visit to Catherine's rooms during a planned surgery was another historic break from tradition. The royal family rarely visits each other in the hospital due to their public lives and the added security and media attention it brings. However, 75-year-old Charles isn't afraid to try something different, growing to adore Kate for her role in raising George, Charlotte, and Louis. He praises the stable family she and William have created, enjoying spending time with them in Windsor.
The joy of a princess seeing her father-in-law after a complicated surgery is a strong sign of the bond between them. Queen Camilla's presence, insisting on accompanying her husband, further emphasizes their loyalty and sweet companionship. As the King undergoes surgery for an enlarged prostate, Camilla plans to stay by his side until the doctors confirm the success of the operation.
Despite Charles being a workaholic with a packed schedule, he insists on handling documents and holding private meetings, even on the day before being admitted to the hospital. Expected to stay in the hospital for two days, Charles is keen on emphasizing that when it comes to affairs of state, it's business as usual. The family's unity, evident in the unexpected setting of a London hospital, contrasts with recent divisions highlighted by Harry and Meghan.
