King Charles<\/a> and Queen Camilla<\/a> hosted their second Buckingham Palace garden party<\/a> on Wednesday. The event celebrated those in the education and skills sector and was attended by Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson.<\/p>\n

However, during a moment with a guest, the monarch opened up about his cancer treatment<\/a>, revealing how food was helping him as he recovered. One of the guests at the party was international relations student Stamford Collis, 22, who is battling cancer.<\/p>\n

Speaking after the meeting, Stamford shared: “He was asking me about the treatment I have starting in June and spoke to me about food and diet.<\/strong> He also asked me if I had undergone radiation treatment, which I had earlier this year.”<\/p>\n

\"King\u00a9 Getty ImagesIt was the second garden party of the year<\/p>\n

Charles was overheard musing: “It’s sometimes about the diet and what you eat.<\/strong> It can help.”<\/p>\n

There was another emotional moment when Charles met Patricia Alban who set up Sammy\u2019s Foundation last year in memory of her son, who suffered from Prader-Willi Syndrome and autism and died in 2020 at the age of 13.<\/p>\n

\"King\u00a9 Getty ImagesThe royal couple were at a separate event last night<\/p>\n

“I told Sammy ‘one day I will meet the king and tell him about you’,” she told media. “And here I am. I can’t believe it. He would have been so proud. I feel quite emotional. I feel like he is there. It’s been a dream of mine.”<\/p>\n
