It comes as he continues his outpatient cancer treatment in London.

His Majesty's appearance this morning comes after Princess Kate’s uncle Gary Goldsmith entered the Celebrity Big Brother house - sparking fears it could add further stress on the family.

In an exclusive interview with The Sun before appearing on the show Gary said he could never do anything to upset “beautiful” Kate, and slammed claims against her of racism as “bull***t”.

And last night Goldsmith slammed Meghan Markle as a “stick in the spokes” of the Royals.

MORE ON CHARLES

But there are fears he could spill royal secrets about his niece and cause further headaches for Charles and The Firm.

Yesterday Charles met with Chancellor Jeremy Hunt ahead of today's budget.

It comes as Mr Hunt is set to outline the financial plan for the rest of the year, including changes like tax hikes, cuts and benefits increases.

As much of the nation is still battling the cost of living, people are waiting in anticipation for more information on any new support packages.

And, with Britain’s economy slipping into a recession at the end of 2023, many will be eager to see what changes are made.

The monarch missed the memorial service for the late King Constantine of Greece last week.

King Charles will recover from cancer - I've been watching him and Camilla and I'm sure I can tell

The King was at Windsor Castle earlier in the day but left before the ceremony began.

Prince William also pulled out of the service at the last-minute due to a "personal matter".

In their absence, Queen Camilla led the Royal Family at the service as she continues to step up and take on more duties.

The royals and Middleton family were said to be terrified when The Sun revealed in January that he would be appearing on the reality show.

And last night housemates Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh were quick to quiz Gary about the Royal deserters after the couple cashed in on their connections. 

Gary slammed: “So I have an opinion that Harry was really, really really loved and when they were a threesome, so Kate, William and Harry they got really comfortable together, and then suddenly there’s an extra dynamic that comes in, puts a stick in the spokes and creates so much drama that I don’t genuinely think is there, and rewrites the history, saying they’re unhappy with us and I just don’t think that’s fair.”

He added: “I mean you can’t throw your family under the bus in such a dramatic style, then write books about it and expect to be invited round for Christmas.”

Sharon lived with rocker husband Ozzy Osbourne in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles until the end of last year when the couple moved to Buckinghamshire. 

How Charles bravely revealed diagnosis to help others

KING Charles has bravely broken with royal protocol by sharing his cancer diagnosis.

Senior royals have in the past been tight-lipped about their health battles.

The last top royal diagnosed with cancer was Charles's grandfather George VI.

Heavy smoker George had his left lung removed for "structural abnormalities" in September 1951, months before he died.

The "abnormalities" were actually a life-threatening carcinoma, but the public never learned about George's cancer ordeal.

Buckingham Palace said Charles wanted to share his cancer diagnosis to boost "public understanding" for cancer patients worldwide.

It means she moved in similar circles to Meghan and Harry, who now live in Montecito, California.

She said: “In the beginning, they were very very well received. 

“They don’t understand it, but they do love it, you know? But it’s dwindling, dwindling, dwindling and there’s been some deals that they have done that haven't worked well.”
