This week has been an absolute triumph for the Royal Family. We have seen solo engagements from Prince William, the Princess of Wales, King Charles, Queen Camilla and Princess Anne.
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh are also currently undertaking the first royal tour of the year in Nepal.
And on Thursday evening, the King and Queen announced a royal tour of their own, which will take place in April when they will travel to Italy.
The Royal Family look to be putting 2024 and most of the health issues that several senior members of the monarchy faced, behind them with a plethora of engagements across January and the first week of February.
The Royal Family will be desperate to avoid Prince Harry and Meghan Markle distractions.

King Charles and Princess Anne, in particular, made symbolic public appearances this week.
On Tuesday, the monarch stepped out exactly one year to the day that Buckingham Palace announced he had been diagnosed with cancer.
The King, who is still receiving treatment for his cancer, visited Europe’s largest Polish centre and met with Polish Ambassador Piotr Wilczek in London.
On Thursday, Princess Anne returned to the hospital where she spent five days recovering after suffering minor head injuries and a concussion in the summer, to thank the team that treated her.
It echoed an engagement undertaken by the Princess of Wales last month when she returned to The Royal Marsden.

Catherine, who received cancer treatment at the hospital throughout 2024, announced in January after she visited The Royal Marsden that she was in remission.
That engagement was her first of 2025 and since then she has undertaken several public appearances with the most recent being on Tuesday when she visited the National Portrait Gallery to launch an innovative project supporting young children’s social and emotional development.
Prince William has also been busy this week carrying out engagements in England and Scotland.
The Prince of Wales spoke candidly about the importance of mental health awareness during visits to Child Bereavement UK’s service centre in Widnes, as well as in Angus to spotlight community organisations tackling rural isolation and loneliness.
This weekend also marks a historic moment for Prince Harry. The Duke of Sussex will travel to Canada for the first-ever winter edition of the Invictus Games.

During an event in Canada in February 2024, to mark one year before the games kicked off, Harry spoke about visiting his father in the UK after the monarch had been diagnosed with cancer.
The TV interview was aired on Good Morning America and attracted worldwide coverage during a period of uncertainty surrounding the Royal Family.
The next Invictus Games will take place in England, as Birmingham was selected ahead of Washington as the host for the 2027 edition of the sporting competition.
However, this week senior royals will be hoping Harry’s attention stays firmly fixed on Canada and that the Duke of Sussex does not distract from the Royal Family’s brilliant start to 2025.
