King Charles has attended a Sunday church service amid his cancer fight

He was snapped on Sunday (13.10.24) looking "poised and relaxed" as he drove to a church service at Crathie Kirk, Scotland, according to the Daily Mail.

Charles was seen at the wheel of his Audi while making the trip near Balmoral, where his mother Queen Elizabeth did aged 96 in 2022.

Queen Camilla appeared to be absent from the vehicle, but Charles was joined by other guests.

The Mail said the monarch looked "impeccable" in a blue shirt which he paired with a sage green blazer.

Charles was met by the King's Guard as they lined the church's entrance and its surrounding areas.

He was seen after it was reported Charles is set to take two doctors and a supply of his blood on his upcoming tour of Australia and Samoa.

According to a report by The Times, the king will be "monitored closely during the visit", with a palace source adding to the newspaper Michael Dixon - head of the royal medical household and known for his interest in homeopathy - "will not be travelling" with His Majesty.

Charles' visit to Sydney and Canberra will be his first to a Commonwealth realm since becoming king in May, and it is understood he is pausing his chemotherapy treatment until after the trip.

The Times added steps taken to support Charles abroad are "the same as arrangements put in place for the late Queen".

They will also apparently include travelling with a supply of the king's blood to ensure a match if a transfusion was needed, it said.

In Australia, Charles' itinerary will include a rest day and there will be no evening engagements.
