Charles is crowned the hardest-working royal during 2025

GREAT-GREAT-GRAN DREW KING TO THE OUTDOORS

- BY RUSSELL MYERS

KING Charles was the hardest-working royal of 2025 — despite his cancer treatment.

At 77, he clocked up 532 engagements — 50 more than his sister Princess Anne, who is famed for her work ethic.

It means out of the 2,458 official royal engagements, the King carried out almost a quarter (22%). His engagements have taken him up and down the country as well as trips to Italy to meet Pope Leo XIV, Canada and Poland, for the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.
