Queen Elizabeth's Busy Year: Royal Engagements In Full Swing

Queen Elizabeth II is 92—and yet her workload seems to be increasing

Let’s talk about the Queen, shall we? Age is just a number, and Queen Elizabeth, who celebrated her 92nd birthday in late April, is proving that point in 2018. This year has been a whirlwind of activity for the royal family, with Queen Elizabeth setting a new personal record. According to recent reports, her duties have surged by a staggering 25 percent since 2017. That’s right—she’s busier than ever!

Research from Write Royalty reveals that the Queen, a proud grandmother of eight, has already clocked in 125 engagements since January. It’s like she’s running on royal rocket fuel. But here’s the kicker—her eldest son, Prince Charles, is giving her a run for her money. He’s not just keeping up; he’s leading the pack.

    Who’s Rounding Out the Top Five?

    Princess Anne takes second place in the rankings, followed by Prince Edward and Prince Andrew. And rounding out the top five is none other than the Queen herself. Now, Prince Harry didn’t make the cut this time around, but that’s because he’s been busy planning his lavish royal wedding with Meghan Markle. But don’t worry—Harry and Meghan are quickly catching up with the rest of the family.

    On May 22, the dynamic duo made their first royal appearance as a couple during a garden party at Buckingham Palace, celebrating Prince Charles’ 70th birthday. It’s a sign that they’re diving headfirst into their royal duties, and it’s only a matter of time before they’re leading the charge themselves.
