Royal Commentator Michael Cole has said Prince Harry’s announcement of his return to the UK to support his father was ‘not before time’.
He also said he thought The King ‘had nothing to lose and a lot to gain’ by sharing his health updates with the nation.
Speaking to GB News Michael Cole said: “For The King and for the Royal Family to have moved as far as possible down that route is only a good thing. People used to shudder at the word cancer.
“People are now more and more prepared to share their ailments with other people.

“Many people will take comfort from this and I think it’s to be commended.
“I think if he was hiding it all it would then not look good. And essentially, what he’s doing is he’s taking the country with him.

“But he’s 75; we always knew it wouldn’t be a hugely long reign and I think he’s got nothing to lose and a lot to gain by bringing us all with him.
“To hear that Prince Harry’s coming back, well one could only say not before time.
“Perhaps he’s realised what is important in life and what is important in life is the people you love most. And when they’re in trouble, you can support them.”
A source close to Harry said the duke had spoken with Charles, who personally called both his sons to share news of the development.

Harry will clear his diary and travel from his home in California, with the move likely to raise concerns about the seriousness of the King’s condition.
The trip will be a solo one, with the Duchess of Sussex staying in the US with the couple’s two children – Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
“The duke did speak with his father about his diagnosis. He will be traveling to UK to see His Majesty in the coming days,” the source said.
It comes amid strained relations between the Duke and his father which have stemmed from a series of royal bombshells from him and his wife, Meghan Markle, in recent years.
Charles, according to Harry, pleaded with his sons during a tense meeting after the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral: “Please, boys. Don’t make my final years a misery.”
Harry and Meghan wanted a half in-half out approach to royal life, but in the end quit as senior working royals amid the Megxit crisis in 2020.
In their primetime Oprah interview in 2021, they went on to accuse an unnamed royal – later claimed to be two royals – of making a racist comment about what skin colour their son Archie would have before he was born.
Harry also said Charles stopped taking his calls when he was trying to discuss stepping down as a working royal.
“My father and my brother, they are trapped. They don’t get to leave. And I have huge compassion for that,” Harry told Winfrey.
