“It was wonderful to meet so many members of the local community at Lancaster Castle this morning!” the video caption read.
King Charles, 76, who for the most part has kept up with public appearances after announcing his cancer diagnosis last year, immediately received supportive comments on the post from social media users.
“King Charles looks healthy and very happy 😊 to be meeting folks!” said one commenter.
“King Charles look healthy doing his dutie [sic]” agreed another, while a third simply said, “He brings joy everywhere He goes.”
However, his Monday appearance follows the grim Telegraph report that suggested the King’s cancer is incurable despite his ongoing treatment.
The appearance also comes as People confirmed that the monarch will be participating in the annual Trooping of the Colour celebration on Saturday. However, instead of riding on horseback, he will ride in a carriage alongside Queen Camilla as he did last year.
People also noted that plans are reportedly underway for his 80th birthday celebration which would be in 2028.
