Talking about his eating habits and schedule are concerned, he likes healthier options for breakfast. New York Post quoted a former member of the Royal staff - Chef Graham Newbould who said that the King "has a healthier option. He'd have homemade bread, a bowl of fresh fruit, fresh fruit juices," chef Graham Newbould, a former member of the royal staff said."
He added, "Wherever the prince goes in the world, the breakfast box goes with him. He has six different types of honey, some special mueslis, his dried fruit, and anything that's a bit special that he is a bit fussy about."
All this along with more details has been revealed in the Amazon Prime documentary mentioned above. The documentary was released at the time Charles was the Prince of Wales.
