King Charles has cancer.
This inevitably leads to the question of who will take over his appointments if he is canceled for a longer period of time.
London - The shocking news that King Charles (75) is suffering from cancer implies that he will be unable to carry out his duties for an indefinite period of time.
The question of who will take over his tasks now arises.
Prince William (41), the heir to the throne, already has his hands full looking after his recently operated wife Kate (42) and their children.
It will not be available until Easter.
Who will take over the duties of King Charles, who is suffering from cancer?
Recently, Queen Camilla (76) was the only one of Britain's top four royals to attend public engagements.
However, according to
bunte.de,
she will probably not be able to take over if King Charles, who has already appeared publicly after his operation, is out for a longer period of time.
When King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth II († 96), died, his daughter and not his wife, Queen Mum († 101), became his successor.
Prince William is scheduled to resume his duties from tomorrow, February 7th.
However, it remains unclear whether he would be willing to take on the role of king, regardless of the current difficult situation.
He hasn't had much opportunity to grow into his new role as heir to the throne, and his children with Kate are still very young.
Will Princess Anne become interim queen during King Charles' cancer?
Since the birth of Prince George (10), William's first son, Prince Harry (39) is no longer number two in line to the throne and has also withdrawn from royal life.
The reputation of King Charles' brother Andrew (63) has been ruined since photos of him emerged in connection with the Epstein scandal.
The situation is different with Princess Anne (73), Charles' sister, who is known to be very hardworking.

According to
Bunte,
royal editor Sarah Hewson considers Princess Anne to be the most likely interim queen: “Princess Anne would probably step in.” It remains to be hoped that King Charles will recover quickly and that this question ultimately does not have to be asked.
Here is the information known so far about King Charles' condition.
