King Charles’ monarchy is seemingly losing its significance as Kate Middleton battles cancer.

A significant part of the system, Kate, has been absent from public engagements due to her diagnosis and chemotherapy, making things look tough for the monarchy.

Patrick Jephson, the former private secretary to Diana, states: “Without Catherine, it all seems rather flat. The future of the monarchy is William and Catherine,” he says, speaking to Vanity Fair.

“And, as we know from any superficial study of the British royal family, it’s the women who pull the show together, who get out there and make things happen.

"So how fragile is the monarchy? Well, it’s as fragile as Catherine is and at the moment, we don’t know,” he notes.

Prince William and Kate are parents to Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The couple tied the knot in 2011 at Westminster Abbey after a decade of dating. In September 2023, they were bestowed the titles of Prince and Princess of Wales after the death of Queen Elizabeth II
