ALBAWABA - King Charles III has uncovered his first portrait following coronation sparking wide debate and controversy about the way he looked in the latest painting.

"Too bloody," many people wrote on social media, claiming that the red color could be a sign or an indirect hint about his health following the cancer diagnosis. 

In addition, not only the portrait itself that caused this controversy, but also the reaction of King Charles when he removed the curtains to unveil his latest portrait.

In the portrait, which was made by artist Jonathan Yeo, King Charles III appeared pale and wearing a full red suit and the background of the painting was also fully red igniting debate.

It is worth noting that while visiting the Army Flying Museum in Middle Wallop, Hampshire, to officially hand over one of his military titles to Prince William, the UK King gave an update on his health as he is currently undergoing special treatment for cancer. 

The 75-year-old monarch has reportedly lost his sense of taste, according to British newspaper Daily Mail.
