<p id=”par-1_80″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/kate-middleton/?swcfpc=1″>Kate Middleton</a> stepped out of the royal spotlight at the end of 2023 after a “planned abdominal surgery.” But royal family <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kate-middleton-film-another-nerve-wracking-video-returning-source-claims.html/”>followers never expected her to have cancer</a>. In March 2024, Kate announced that doctors found evidence of cancer during her surgery. For that reason, she planned to go through with preventative chemotherapy. King Charles III’s niece, Princess Beatrice, is now assisting Kate with royal duties. Here’s what a source said about Beatrice wanting to take on more engagements permanently.</p>

<p id=”par-2_60″>Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice have been in the spotlight in the past. They’re the daughters of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and Sarah, Duchess of York, making them the nieces of King Charles III. Eugenie and Beatrice aren’t working royals. However, in light of <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/prince-william-private-turmoil-kate-middleton-cancer-diagnosis-wake-up-call.html/”>Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis</a> and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kate-middleton-struggled-cancer-treatment-royal-expert-not-pleasant.html/”>chemotherapy</a>, Beatrice took on a few royal engagements to help.</p>
<p id=”par-3_41″>A source told <a href=”https://www.lifeandstylemag.com/posts/princess-beatrice-being-asked-to-fill-in-for-kate/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Life & Style</a> that Beatrice feels “overjoyed” to have the opportunity. “[Beatrice] would love for it to become a permanent situation,” the source claimed. “Beatrice is comfortable in the spotlight and would be overjoyed to become a working royal.”</p>
<p id=”par-4_52″>However, PR expert Alison Lancaster told <a href=”https://www.gbnews.com/royal/princess-beatrice-princess-eugenie-royal-family-spotlight” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>GB News</a> that Beatrice and Eugenie should not seek more work with the royal family. “The glaring spotlight will inevitably exacerbate tensions around their work-life balance and boundaries,” she said. “Beatrice and Eugenie already have thriving careers — adding royal duties to that mix is a serious bandwidth consideration.”</p>
<p id=”par-5_14″>Lancaster added that if they continue, Beatrice and Eugenie will look like “rookie ambassadors.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_11″> “One slip-up goes globally viral in seconds nowadays,” she added.</p>

<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-princesses-beatrice-and-eugenie-allegedly-felt-upset-that-they-weren-t-asked-to-help-with-more-royal-duties”>Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie allegedly felt ‘upset’ that they weren’t asked to help with more royal duties</h2>
<p id=”par-7_26″>Princess Beatrice and Eugenie’s friend said the sisters wanted to help with more royal engagements in the wake of Kate Middleton and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/king-charles-kate-middleton-exact-opposite-cancer-diagnosis-reaction.html/”>King Charles’ cancer</a>. </p>
<p id=”par-8_55″>“It seems mean that the girls aren’t being used at all when they have made it clear they want to be of service, especially when Prince Andrew has been accepted back into the fold,” the friend told <a href=”https://www.thedailybeast.com/princesses-beatrice-and-eugenie-very-upset-over-royal-duties-snub#:~:text=Another%20source%2C%20a%20friend%20of,isn’t%20an%20option.%E2%80%9D” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Daily Beast</a>. The royal family banished the sisters’ father, Prince Andrew, due to his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein. </p>
<p id=”par-9_43″>“They have done nothing wrong, and they shouldn’t be visited with the sins of their father,” the friend continued. “They are very upset to have been ignored by the king, as they feel they have a lot to offer, but ultimately not surprised.”</p>

<p id=”par-10_36″>Kate Middleton seems to want to get back to work as a full-time working royal. A source told <a href=”https://www.lifeandstylemag.com/posts/kate-middleton-feeling-pressure-to-return-to-royal-duties/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Life & Style</a> that she feels “pressure” to quickly recover and return as a “perfect” version of herself.</p>
<p id=”par-11_61″>“While no one is pushing Kate to do anything but recover, she’s still feeling a lot of pressure to get back to her duties and to be even more perfect than before,” the source said. “She’s taking time to heal, but caring for her kids, being a good spouse to William, and her responsibility to her work are weighing heavily on Kate.”</p>
<p id=”par-12_29″>“She doesn’t want the world to see her like this, and she doesn’t want to delay getting back to work as a royal even more, either,” the source continued.</p>
<p id=”par-13_33″>Kate plans to attend Trooping the Colour on June 15, 2024, celebrating King Charles III’s birthday. On June 14, 2024, Kate released a statement with a health update and her decision to attend.</p>
<p id=”par-14_40″>“I’m looking forward to attending The King’s Birthday Parade this weekend with my family and hope to join a few public engagements over the summer, but equally knowing I am not out of the woods yet,” she stated on <a href=”https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/1801660649333719231″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>X</a>.</p>
