This is from Majesty magazine. I know some quibble with a few numbers, such as a couple of Kate’s, but this is generally correct. Regardless, let’s take a look at the numbers in this table.
2079 domestic engagements (in the UK) [column E]
522 foreign/overseas engagements [column F]
2601 total engagements for the BRF.
Charles completed 497 engagements, Camilla 194, William 190, and Kate 138. (Just in case it’s not clear by the table).
Queen Elizabeth II completed 120 engagements in 2022 prior to her passing, which was 5.77% of all domestic engagements.
King Charles III completed 497 engagements, including 57 overseas, which was 21% of domestic BRF engagements and 19.1% of all BRF engagements.
Queen Camilla completed 194 total engagements, which was 7.45% of all BRF engagements.
Prince William completed 190 total engagements, which was 7.3% of all BRF engagements.
Catherine, The Princess of Wales, completed 138 total engagements, which was 5.3% of all BRF engagements.
Prince Edward completed 276 engagements, which was 10.6% of all BRF engagements.
Sophie, The Countess of Wessex and Forfar, completed 280 engagements, which was 10.76% of all BRF engagements.
Princess Anne completed 474 engagements, which was 18.2% of all BRF engagements.
The Duke of Gloucester completed 183 engagements, which was 7.0% of all BRF engagements.
The Duchess of Gloucester completed 110 engagements, which was 4.2% of all BRF engagements.
The Duke of Kent completed 91 engagements, which was 3.5% of all BRF engagements.
Princess Alexandra completed 48 engagements, which was 1.84% of all BRF engagements.
To put some of this in perspective, let’s also consider the ages of everyone involved in 2022.
Queen Elizabeth II 96
King Charles III 74
Queen Camilla 75
The Prince of Wales 40
The Princess of Wales 40
Earl of Wessex 58
Countess of Wessex 57
The Princess Royal 72
The Duke of Gloucester 78
The Duchess of Gloucester 76
The Duke of Kent 87
Princess Alexandra 86
In 2022, the number of all engagements completed by those over the age of 70: 1717
The percentage of all engagements completed by those over the age of 70: 66%.
If you eliminate King Charles, Queen Camilla, The Duke & Duchess of Gloucester, The Duke of Kent, and Princess Alexandra from this 2022 list, then only 1358 engagements remain, which is 52% of the total engagements remaining. (48% of the work is completed by those six royals.)
If you also eliminate Princess Anne, then only 884 engagements remain of the 2022 total, which is only 34%. (884 engagements include William, Catherine, Edward, & Sophie.)
It’s a tough hill to climb from 190 or 138 engagements to 350. Wouldn’t dream of pushing the youngsters toward 400.
Might crack a nail or something.
