The royals are feeling the weight of King Charles III's slimmed-down monarchy now more than ever, as he and Kate Middleton are recovering following their respective surgeries, and Prince William is on leave to take care of his wife. Now, it has been revealed that Prince Edward has also taken a quick break from royal duties.
The Telegraph reported that the Duke of Edinburgh is taking a short break after a four-day busy itinerary last week doing overseas trips. He paid an official visit to South Africa, a Commonwealth country, and to St. Helena, a British Overseas Territory.
