The bad news from the British royal family continues. King Charles III should not only be suffering from cancer. A senior courtier now claims the monarch also suffers from facial paralysis, which makes speaking difficult and could damage the king's public image. King Charles III Suffered from Bell's palsy? Courtier reveals royal drama "This paralysis is the real reason His Majesty withdrew from royal duties so early in his cancer treatment," a senior courtier reportedly told the National Enquirer. "He's using his cancer diagnosis as an excuse to hide." Accordingly, the 75-year-old is said to have Bell's palsy. King Charles III "I have therefore limited contact with outsiders and have sworn those I see regularly to secrecy."Most of his communications are now made in writing or through his highest confidants, including Camilla," the insider continued. “Yet he is finding it difficult to keep this crisis under wraps.” Drooping face, drooling and crooked smile: These symptoms occur with Bell's palsy Bell's palsy occurs when a nerve that controls facial muscles stops working properly. The cause of this disease is unclear. However, experts associate them with chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure and viral infections. Symptoms include a drooping face, paralysis of one side of the face, difficulty closing eyes, drooling, and even a crooked smile. Symptoms usually go away on their own within a few months, but they can also be permanent. Photo is said to prove facial paralysis - Is this why King Charles withdrew from the public? Photos taken outside St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle on Easter Sunday are said to show the monarch with a droopy eye. "It looks like Bell's palsy," internist Gabe Mirkin told the National Inquirer. "The paralysis of the nerve damaged the facial muscle, resulting in the indentation on the side of his face. The same thing can happen with the muscles around the eye." Despite his cancer treatment, he attended the Easter service. "He tried to reassure the public that he was fine. But that completely backfired," says the courtier. "It just threw an unwanted spotlight on his secret health problem."
