The Queen will hold crunch talks with Princes Charles and William to discuss how the senior Royal Family emerges from lockdown.
High on the agenda will be how they balance the return of normal royal duties with the seismic shifts that have happened within the family since the COVID-19 pandemic struck.
They will discuss how the death of the Duke of Edinburgh, the departure of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and the continued absence of the Duke of York will impact their workload.
Even if Her Majesty refuses to scale back on her duties, current demands on the Court diary are greater than ever and there is a clear void left by Harry and Meghan.
More work for the Cambridges
According to my palace source, the Prince of Wales is particularly concerned about ‘seriously overburdening’ the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge while their family is still young.
He is reluctant to allow William and Kate to take up too much of the slack, spread themselves thin and become overexposed. He worries that they may come under a huge amount of pressure if they take up all of the duties that may be expected of them now there are fewer people to mop up the work. William and Kate are the great hope for the future and putting pressure on them could impact all aspects of their life and that’s not something anyone is willing to risk.
