Three important members of the British royal family have to take a forced break. Who can stand in for King Charles III, Princess Kate and Prince William?
Who will shut down the royals when three important family members are missing? Royal family expert Angela Levin relies on Princess Anne (73). Levin is sure that the sister of King Charles III. (75) is the biggest supporter of the monarchy while two important members of the royals are in hospital. The monarch is due to undergo a medical procedure next week for an enlarged prostate. His daughter-in-law Princess Kate (42) underwent abdominal surgery earlier this week.
Speaking to GB News, Angela Levin said the king was a “very healthy man” and would be back from sick leave “very soon”. In the case of Princess Kate, the palace said she would stay in the clinic for 10 to 14 days because of the planned procedure, which was successful. She will probably not make public appearances once more until following Easter. Her husband, heir to the throne Prince William (41), will probably take a lot of care of Kate and their three children, Prince George (10), Princess Charlotte (8) and Prince Louis (5) during this time. It is not known what Kate is suffering from.

“Anne is the person who will step in”
Levin said regarding representing the important royals that this was the job of the Counselors of State, “and that makes you shudder,” said the expert. The counselors represent the king when he is unable to fulfill his duties as head of state. The problem: This includes two people who are not eligible for this. Prince Andrew (63), the Duke of York, had to withdraw from his royal duties because of his alleged connection to the US sex offender Jeffrey Epstein (1953-2019). And Prince Harry (39), the Duke of Sussex, lives with his family in the United States and has voluntarily withdrawn from the role of high-ranking royal.
Another option would be Queen Camilla (76), regarding whom Levin says she doubts “whether she would necessarily want to take on this burden so soon following the coronation.” Levin continued, “I know who it is, it’s going to be Princess Anne. That’s the person who’s going to step in.” Anne is the one “we can all rely on. She is cheerful, hard-working and efficient and is always there when she is needed. That is a relief.”
Representation by the Counselors of State is probably not necessary at all. It is said that Charles will only be in the hospital for a short time and will be able to fulfill all of his constitutional duties. In theory, in addition to Camilla, William, Harry, Andrew and Anne, Princess Beatrice (35) and Prince Edward (59) are among the people who might represent the monarch.
Princess Anne is the hardest working royal
Princess Anne is also a rock of the royal family, regardless of sick relatives. In 2023, as in previous years, she was the hardest working member of the Royals. According to the British newspaper “The Telegraph”, she made 457 commitments. The king himself took second place with 425 appointments, while his youngest brother, Prince Edward, followed in third place with 297 engagements. Queen Camilla took fourth place with 233 appearances, ahead of Edward’s wife Sophie (58), the Duchess of Edinburgh, with 219. Heir to the throne Prince William and his wife Princess Kate were on royal duty 172 and 128 times respectively.
