King Named Hardest-Working Royal of 2025 Despite Weekly Cancer Treatment

King Charles completed 533 engagements in 2025, leading the royal family despite weekly cancer treatment, as overall royal duties rose 23%, analyst Patricia Treble said.

  • Last year King Charles surpassed Princess Anne, the Princess Royal, to be named hardest-working royal with 533 engagements to her 478.
  • After 2024 diagnoses, both the King and the Princess of Wales increased their duties this year, with the Princess of Wales rising 423 per cent after chemotherapy, as Analyst Patricia Treble said it felt like the House of Windsor was making up for lost time.
  • Senior royals' records show the Duchess of Edinburgh completed 235 engagements and Birgitte, Duchess of Gloucester, held 113, with other senior working royals maintaining steady activity.
  • The King undertook three high-profile state visits to Italy, Canada and Poland last year, while Princess Anne still logged 186 working days overall.
  • The 10 working royals increased their engagement counts in 2025, with the King surpassing Princess Anne, the Princess Royal, who had 478 engagements, reflecting a broader rebound.
