Kate, 42, had not been seen in public for two months until grainy photos emerged of the princess driving a car earlier this month. She broke her silence on Sunday, March 10, and shared a message of gratitude on social media, along with a new photo with her children: Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.

With both Charles and Kate out of commission as senior working royals for the time being, that leaves Camilla, 76, William, 41. Prince Edward And Duchess Sophie to conduct public outings and performances. (Both Camilla and William took a brief break from their duties last month, but have since returned to normal.) Beatrice can also take on certain roles for Charles, as she is one of his state advisors, allowing the monarch to delegate certain tasks . in his absence.
