Another member of Charles III’s family was also recently diagnosed with cancer.
India Hicks, the ceremonial monarch’s goddaughter and second cousin, has revealed that she has been treated for skin cancer, more than a year after the godfather and Duchess Kate spoke out about their battle with cancer.
The 58-year-old wrote on her Substack on Dec. 2, “I just got my test results back from my recent skin cancer surgery and the news…was not very good.” “It’s not as good as a dramatic movie scene, but it’s just not so good that it’s disturbing. It’s the kind of news that makes your corner of the world a little blurry.”
India announced that a “spot of alarmingly fast-growing cancer” was found in her lower calf.
Mrs Pamela Hicks, 96, the daughter of Charles’ late father Prince Philip’s cousin, Mrs Pamela Hicks, 96, continued: “I reacted as most people would – a strange mixture of cold practicality and a bit of private fear.” “As we make tea and answer emails, we tell ourselves we’re okay, a little voice inside whispers to us, but what if things are worse than we think?”
India wrote that she underwent emergency Mohs surgery to remove cancerous skin in Miami.
