With Harry and Meghan stepping down from their royal duties and prince Andrew getting estranged from the family, the number of working royals has reduced significantly. Sadly, during the recent months that number lowered even further after Kate Middleton underwent what was described as a “planned” abdominal surgery and King Charles was diagnosed with cancer, forcing both of them to take some time off.
Kate is expected to return to her royal duties not earlier than Easter, while the King shares his time between London, where he receives weekly treatments, and Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk, England.
While both royals either cleared their schedules or postponed certain royal engagements, their significant others, as well as other members of the royal family stepped in for them.
Queen Camilla had a tough few weeks where she had to take on a lot of responsibility for the royal family. Among the rest, she led the royal family at the memorial service for the late King Constantine of Greece, and now, according to the Palace, she would also be taking a week off
Camilla is expected to return to her regular duties on March 11, when she is scheduled to lead the Royal Family at Westminster Abbey for the Commonwealth Day service.
During her week off, she would be spending her time with her husband, the King, and the rest of the members of the Firm.
King Charles was diagnosed with a type of cancer following the surgery for an enlarged prostate, but no details have been revealed of the type of the stage of the cancer.

The King himself released a statement recently, thanking everyone for their well-wishes, and then took his time to thank his people once again during his meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
When it comes to Kate, the Palace reassured those doubting the severity of her condition with a statement that read, “We were very clear from the outset that the Princess of Wales was out until after Easter and Kensington Palace would only be providing updates when something was significant.”

“I’ve had so many wonderful messages and cards. It’s reduced me to tears most of the time,” King Charles told Sunak.
“I hear there’s been a lot more attention and interest on those main, wonderful cancer charities, many of which I’ve been patron for years,” he added and laughed.
Turia Pitt and Michael Hoskin: A Love Story of Resilience and Inspiration

Turia Pitt and Michael Hoskin’s story is a powerful testament to the boundless strength of love and resilience. Six years ago, Turia, a former model, endured a life-changing event when she was caught in a devastating fire while competing in an ultramarathon in Australia. She suffered severe burns that affected 64% of her body, leaving her with only a slim chance of survival, according to doctors.

Amid this unimaginable tragedy, Michael, Turia’s boyfriend at the time, made an extraordinary decision. He left his job as a police officer to become her caregiver and unwavering pillar of support. Over the course of her recovery, Turia underwent 200 operations, lost seven fingers, and faced the daunting challenge of rebuilding her life during a two-year rehabilitation. In 2020, she courageously shared her story, recounting the harrowing moments when a 100km race in remote Western Australia turned into a fight for survival against flames.

During this arduous journey, Michael’s love and commitment never wavered. At a pivotal moment in Turia’s recovery, he gifted her a diamond ring he had purchased years earlier. In the idyllic setting of the Maldives, he proposed, symbolizing their enduring love and hope for the future.

Turia’s recovery required her to wear a mask for two years, a difficult yet necessary step in her healing process. Through it all, Michael provided constant reassurance, reminding her daily of her beauty and strength. In 2016, after seven years of challenges and triumphs that included countless hours in hospitals, the couple exchanged vows in a deeply emotional ceremony, solidifying their bond and gratitude for one another.

Reflecting on their love, Turia shared, “I never wanted to sleep next to my partner. Now I think how lucky I am to be able to sleep next to this beauty. He’s a nice guy, and I’m very happy to meet him. Every day I wake up next to Michael is a wonderful day.”

As they navigated the complexities of rebuilding their lives, Turia and Michael felt a shared longing to expand their family.

In 2017, Turia announced her pregnancy on Instagram, a moment of joy that captured the hearts of many. Despite being unable to run marathons during her pregnancy, she remained active and resilient. On December 7, 2017, the couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Hakawai, marking the start of a new chapter.

Their love story continued to grow with the birth of their second son, Rahiti Hoskin, on February 9, 2020.

Today, Turia and Michael are happily married, raising their children and cherishing the love that has guided them through life’s trials and triumphs.

Their journey is a remarkable reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of love. By sharing their story, we celebrate hope, resilience, and the belief that no obstacle is insurmountable when love is at the heart of it all.
