A Buckingham Palace spokesperson confirmed on Friday morning that the British monarch had been admitted to The London Clinic. Palace officials announced the 75-year-old King's health news in a statement last week. "In common with thousands of men each year, The King has sought treatment for an enlarged prostate. His Majesty's condition is benign and he will attend hospital next week for a corrective procedure. The King's public engagements will be postponed for a short period of recuperation." Shortly after the announcement, his wife, Queen Camilla, assured the public King Charles was "fine".
