A few days after Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, revealed her cancer diagnosis in a social media video, a prophecy made by French astrologer and apothecary Nostradamus where the seer had forecasted difficult times for British monarchs in 2024 has gone viral, a Livemint report said.
Reports indicated that the 15th century prophet Nostradamus had predicted troubled times for the monarchy in 2024 and accurately forecasted events such as the Hiroshima bombing, rise of Napoleon and the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
In the cryptic forecasts that were written several centuries ago, Nostradamus had predicted the potential "abdication" of a king and the rise of a unexpected successor to the throne. Just like the forecast, a similar sequence of events looks like unwinding in the British monarchial authority with King Charles and Prince Harry under the spotlight.
The prophet had reportedly forecasted that the "King of the Isles" would be "driven out by force" and one with no mark of a king would become his successor.
In February, Buckingham Palace released a statement that King Charles III had been diagnosed with cancer which was discovered while he was being treated for his enlarged prostrate.
"It is not prostate cancer, but was discovered during his recent treatment for an enlarged prostate," the Palace had said in a statement.
