King Charles Logs 164 Engagement Days in Fourth Year Amid Cancer Treatment
The Court Circular shows Charles kept up a packed schedule with 26 prime ministerial audiences and high-profile trips to the United States and the Vatican.
On Tuesday, King Charles III marked four years on the throne while maintaining a rigorous schedule of public engagements alongside his ongoing cancer treatment.
During his fourth year, the King held 26 formal audiences with prime ministers, including welcoming newly-elected Labour Party leader Andy Burnham in July after Sir Keir Starmer stepped down.
Senior royals stepped up activity this year, with the King traveling via train, plane, and a Doctor Who Tardis during the Glasgow Commonwealth Games opening in July.
Press Association analysis shows the Princess Royal remained the family's hardest-working member with 183 engagement days, while William recorded 115 days and Edward 147 days.
Today, September 8, marks the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's 2022 death after 70 years reigning, a poignant milestone as Charles enters his fifth year on the throne.
