Amidst health concerns in the royal family, King Charles is scheduled for a significant medical procedure while Kate Middleton recuperates from stomach surgery.

As the focus remains on their well-being, Princess Anne could step up to handle responsibilities in their absence.

According to Kensington Palace, Kate, the Princess of Wales, has been hospitalized for planned abdominal surgery, with Prince William by her side.

Shortly after, it was announced that King Charles also requires a corrective procedure due to an enlarged prostate diagnosis.

During these trying times, royal biographer Angela Lyons speculates that Queen Camilla may not be able to remain passive while her husband is hospitalized, potentially leading to Princess Anne taking a more active role.

When questioned about the succession of duties in the absence of Charles, William, and Kate, Lyons suggested that the next in line would be the advisors, notably Harry, causing some concern.

Lyons expressed doubt regarding the Queen’s willingness to assume additional responsibilities so soon after the coronation.

Instead, she highlighted Princess Anne as the likely candidate to step in, citing her elevated position following the Queen’s passing.

Describing Princess Anne as reliable, diligent, and always present when needed, Lyons portrayed her as a reassuring figure for the royal family during this challenging period.
