Prince William is reportedly ‘in discussions’ to take on a major role in King Charles’s place for the first time this month.

The Prince of Wales could possibly take on some additional public-facing duties, following the announcement from Buckingham Palace that King Charles has been diagnosed with cancer. Prince William, who is first in the royal line of succession, resumed his own schedule of engagements on 7 February. The coming months include several significant royal occasions and it’s been suggested that it’s “under discussion” whether Prince William could take on a major role for King Charles at the Commonwealth Day service.
