King Charles is feeling the weight of royal responsibilities as key figures in the royal family have cut short their engagements due to health issues and personal challenges. Both the monarch and Kate Middleton have been receiving treatment following their cancer diagnoses. While King Charles has resumed his royal duties, Catherine has been advised by her medical team to refrain from official engagements, putting additional pressure on the king.
Princess Anne, often regarded as the “hardest working royal”, has also been put on leave following an accident that left her with minor injuries and a concussion. Known for her dedication, Anne’s absence adds to the growing pressure on the Royal Family.
Now, in conversation with Daily ExpressRoyal editor Russell Myers said: “The King is pretty much going back to work as he is at the moment” as the number of working royals dwindled.
He said: “The Princess of Wales has no plans to return imminently.”
Speaking of the Royal Princess, the The royal commentator said“She missed a big event in Canada this week where she was going to honour and commemorate the war dead… that will really hurt her, I think because she doesn’t do her job without fanfare. And for her to have to do that will hurt her deeply, I imagine.” “And then there’s Princess Anne. So, you know, the reduced monarchy is looking a bit worn down,” Russell said.
In addition, Prince William has found it difficult to attend royal events due to his responsibilities in caring for his wife and three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. His reduced presence at engagements underlines the challenges currently facing the family.
As the Royal Family grapples with these health issues and personal obligations, the burden of maintaining their public roles and fulfilling their duties falls heavily on King Charles. The current situation highlights the resilience and adaptability required of the monarchy in times of adversity.
