King Charles III appeared to be in good spirits as he and Queen Camilla departed Clarence House together Tuesday morning.
The reigning monarchs waved to fans and British citizens as they sat in the backseat and made their way to Buckingham Palace.
The King and his Queen’s happy moods came after Prince Harry made a “quick visit” to Clarence House after hearing the news that his father had been diagnosed with cancer.
Pvnew was told that the renegade royal, who traveled without his wife, Meghan Markle, touched down at Heathrow Airport in London earlier in the morning before seeing his father.
We exclusively reported Monday that the Duke of Sussex, 39, was planning to see his dad, 75, after Buckingham Palace announced Charles’ cancer battle.
Prince Harry and Markle’s team further confirmed that Harry already had spoken to his father after learning of the diagnosis and shared that the “Suits” alum, 42, would remain home in Montecito, Calif., with their two children: Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2.

With the redheaded royal back on UK turf, sources speculated to us that Charles’ cancer could bring about a truce between Harry and his older brother, Prince William.
“Is this the point where Harry gets to swoop in and be magnanimous and reach out to William?” a palace insider questioned.
Doctors discovered Charles’ cancer, which hasn’t been specified, during his successful surgery to treat his enlarged prostate.
“During The King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted,” the palace shared in a statement Monday. “Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer.”
Buckingham Palace further shared that Charles would postpone his public duties so he could receive “a schedule of regular treatments.”
Charles’ cancer was reportedly caught early and doctors have given him a “good” prognosis, according to the Daily Mail.
The outlet also noted that the British monarch’s positivity and dedication to his duties have “amazed” his family and friends. The palace has yet to reveal which type of cancer Charles was diagnosed with.
