King Charles III’s cancer diagnosis shocked the world when it was announced byBuckingham Palacein February 2024.

What will happen, and more importantly, what would it mean for the rest of the royal family?

When King Charles dies, Operation Menai Bridge will come into effect.

While he’ll get the coveted position of king, his role will come with unprecedented pressure.

Another factor that could weigh on Prince William is his outdated training.

William received training from Charles and the late Queen Elizabeth II, who are of different eras.

Nevertheless, he will need to exert additional effort compared to those who came before him.

According to royal experts, it’s Catherine who holds the fate of the monarchy in her hands.

When she becomes queen consort, Catherine will have even more power to go against outdated traditions.

Kate Middleton laughing

She has always been extremely well-liked, with a 44% positivity score.

The fact that she had a “normal” upbringing also makes her more relatable to the public.

Therefore, we’re placing her in the winner category.

Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis pointing

We’ve seen this with Princess Margaret, Prince Andrew, and Prince Harry.

However, it seems Charlotte and Louis won’t suffer the same fate.

So unlike their older brother Prince George, Charlotte and Louis will actually have a say in their future.

Prince Edward and Sophie smiling

Therefore, they both belong in the winner category.

Being confidants of the future king and queen could have numerous benefits for Edward and Sophie.

Prince Harry looking serious

They could potentially be called upon to take on more prominent roles within their royal duties.

William may also look to them for advice, giving the couple more influence.

Maintaining close ties with the reigning monarch could also boost their status, relevance, and public image.

Prince George looking serious

However, the door will likely be shut when William becomes king due to his strained relationship with Harry.

William reportedly sees his brother as a brainwashed defector and a threat to the crown.

Any hope of Harry returning to the monarchy will likely die with Charles.

Prince Andrew close-up

At the time of King Charles III’s cancer diagnosis, George was only 10 years old.

Growing up as a member of the royal family comes with intense public visibility and scrutiny.

Just look at Prince Harry, who was lambasted in the media for partying as a teen.

Queen Camilla close-up

But growing up as the future heir to the throne comes with even more pressure and responsibility.

Every move he makes will be ruthlessly scrutinized.

Every mistake he makes will be magnified.

Princess Anne looking serious

His freedoms will be limited and his future is predestined.

“Is there any one of the royal family who wants to be king or queen?”

“I don’t think so, but we will carry out our duties at the right time.”

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie

Because of this, we’re putting young George in the loser category.

However, it seems that Charles may have had a change of heart.

According to historian Andrew Lownie, it looks like the palace may be making room for Andrew’s return.

However, Prince William does not share the same soft spot for his disgraced uncle.

According to Prince Harry, William was greatly affected by their father’s affair with Camilla.

He also revealed that he and his brother directly asked their father not to marry Camilla.

However, this may take a huge toll on her due to her age.

Therefore, we’re putting her in the loser category even though she deserves a medal!

In 2022, there were rumors that King Charles III could strip the sisters of their royal titles.

Therefore, we’re putting Beatrice and Eugenie in the loser category.
