Kensington Palace has issued an urgent statement, resulting in significant disappointment throughout the British Isles. Due to a health issue, Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, will once again be unable to fulfil the wishes of the British public. Where will she be absent?

The Duchess of Cambridge is battling cancer, which has required her to limit her public appearances to a minimum. Several weeks ago, she was last seen at a state ceremony for King Charles III's birthday.

Unfortunately, everything indicates that the wife of Prince William will not grace the upcoming events she has attended in the past. Last year, she and her husband participated in a charity polo match, where she handed out awards.

On 12 July, benefactors and polo enthusiasts will meet once again. They will be raising funds, amongst others, for rescue services. In the Guards Polo Club match, the heir to the throne will not be able to count on the support of Kate Middleton. According to the "Express," Kensington Palace has just confirmed that she will be absent.

The British press is trying to calm concerned readers and appeal for understanding regarding the Duchess's current situation. However, rumours are that she might also be absent from the upcoming Wimbledon tournament. These reports contradict earlier expert assumptions.

This leads to speculation about the future queen's current health condition. Pessimists assume that it is getting worse. They worry whether the Duchess of Cambridge will have the strength to fulfil at least some of the scheduled engagements on her calendar by the end of the year.

Prince William revealed his plan. This is what he will do after taking the throne

Prince Harry's older brother has an increasingly tight schedule. After all, he must also represent the royal family on behalf of his father. King Charles III faces the same issue as his daughter-in-law.

Despite this, Prince William has already announced that he will implement a certain plan concerning the family upon taking the throne. As the new ruler of the United Kingdom, he plans to decree that the younger generation will not immediately replace retired family members.

This change will mainly affect his children. Known for his reserved approach to journalists, the royal does not want to subject them to his unpleasant experiences in his youth.

Thus, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte can expect to enjoy a peaceful life for a longer period away from the happenings in London.
