King has postponed

King Charles's cancer was "caught early", UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has told the BBC.

The prime minister said he was left "shocked and sad" by the news but he remains in "regular contact" with the King.

Buckingham Palace confirmed that the diagnosis was not for prostate cancer, but was found during treatment for an enlarged prostate.

The King has postponed all public duties and has began "regular treatments" for his condition.
