The Royal Editor of the Daily Mirror, Russell Myers, believes that Princes Charles and William have already taken over some of the duties of the British Queen, the Daily Express reported.

According to the expert, while Elizabeth II was ill with COVID-19 and was not shown in public, her eldest son Prince Charles and grandson Prince William reacted to current events.

In particular, what is happening in Ukraine was the first to comment on William. Then Charles made a similar statement, and his words, according to Myers, were chosen as a statesman.

At the end of October 2021, doctors recommended that Elizabeth II take a break from public events. After that, she canceled a visit to Northern Ireland, canceled a trip to the UN climate conference in Glasgow and went to the hospital for an examination. In February 2022, the Queen suffered from COVID-19.
