Prince Harry breaks his silence on King Charles’ cancer diagnosis: ‘Look, I love my family’
Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, is speaking out about his father King Charles’ health for the first time since the monarch announced his diagnosis.
In a new interview with Good Morning America‘s Will Reeve, Harry shared how he learned about his father’s cancer diagnosis and provided what information he could about King Charles‘ current condition.
According to People, King Charles personally shared his cancer diagnosis with family before making the announcement to the public on February 5.
Harry said once he spoke with his father he “jumped on a plane” and flew to the United Kingdom to be by his side.
“Look, I love my family. The fact that I was able to get on a plane and go and see him and spend any time with him, I’m grateful for that,” Harry told Reeve.
King Charles has remained mum on the type of cancer he is currently battling, though the palace has stated it is not prostate cancer.
Harry declined to provide any further updates on his father’s health stating, “That stays between me and him.”
The duke’s most recent visit to see his father reportedly lasted roughly an hour, but Harry says he hopes to make it back to see him again soon.
“I’ve got other trips planned that will take me through the U.K., or back to the U.K., and so I’ll stop in and see my family as much as I can.”
He even has high hopes that King Charles’ cancer diagnosis can have a reunifying effect on his family.
Prior to his visit on February 6, Harry had not seen his father since the king’s coronation last May.
Prince Harry has broken his silence on his father King Charles’ recent cancer diagnosis and his current relationship with the rest of the royal family. Harry revealed that he ‘jumped on a plane’ as soon as possible to see King Charles. He was ‘grateful’ for the time with his father during their brief meeting in London and agreed that families could be brought closer by such health concerns. Prince Harry said ‘I love my family’ and that he would stop in and see them as much as he can.
