With Harry and Meghan stepping down from their royal duties and prince Andrew getting estranged from the family, the number of working royals has reduced significantly. Sadly, during the recent months that number lowered even further after Kate Middleton underwent what was described as a “planned” abdominal surgery and King Charles was diagnosed with cancer, forcing both of them to take some time off.
Kate is expected to return to her royal duties not earlier than Easter, while the King shares his time between London, where he receives weekly treatments, and Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk, England.
While both royals either cleared their schedules or postponed certain royal engagements, their significant others, as well as other members of the royal family stepped in for them.
Queen Camilla had a tough few weeks where she had to take on a lot of responsibility for the royal family. Among the rest, she led the royal family at the memorial service for the late King Constantine of Greece, and now, according to the Palace, she would also be taking a week off
Camilla is expected to return to her regular duties on March 11, when she is scheduled to lead the Royal Family at Westminster Abbey for the Commonwealth Day service.
During her week off, she would be spending her time with her husband, the King, and the rest of the members of the Firm.
King Charles was diagnosed with a type of cancer following the surgery for an enlarged prostate, but no details have been revealed of the type of the stage of the cancer.
The King himself released a statement recently, thanking everyone for their well-wishes, and then took his time to thank his people once again during his meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
When it comes to Kate, the Palace reassured those doubting the severity of her condition with a statement that read, “We were very clear from the outset that the Princess of Wales was out until after Easter and Kensington Palace would only be providing updates when something was significant.”

“I’ve had so many wonderful messages and cards. It’s reduced me to tears most of the time,” King Charles told Sunak.
“I hear there’s been a lot more attention and interest on those main, wonderful cancer charities, many of which I’ve been patron for years,” he added and laughed.
Woman finds a friendly dog sitting on her porch and helps him find a new home
Amy Haden had a surprise one morning when her daughter alerted her to a dog on their back porch. Initially, Amy didn’t think much of it, assuming it was one of their family’s dogs. However, she soon realized it was a new visitor, comfortably settled on their patio furniture.
“It’s like he had taken up residence,” Amy recalled, noting how the dog had made himself at home on the cushions and showed no signs of leaving.
Despite the dog’s contentment in their company, Amy knew he needed assistance. She took on the responsibility of caring for him and embarked on a mission to reunite him with his family, reaching out to the community and using social media platforms.
Despite efforts to locate his previous owners, including checking for a microchip, the dog remained unclaimed. Amy affectionately named him Walker, with input from TikTok users, and her family continued to provide him with care.
As time passed, it became evident that Amy’s household wasn’t the permanent solution for Walker. Compatibility issues arose with her existing dogs, prompting Amy to seek a forever home better suited for Walker’s needs.
Fortunately, Amy’s persistence paid off when she found an ideal match for Walker—an elderly lady who had been longing for a furry companion.
“She was super sweet,” Amy shared, expressing gratitude that their paths crossed. “She told us that she had been praying for a dog like him and that we were the answer to her prayers.”
