According to the official court website Princess Alexandra currently has over 100 patronages. Most likely the Duke of Kent has similar or more. I am guessing that they keep in touch with these patronages by mail or zoom meetings. Do you think this will be the mode of communication once the remaining working royals take over the Kents' patronages as they seem to have a full schedule as it is.
>>OK<<
They should absolutely be honoured for their long and dedicated service to the crown but I am not sure this is the right way to do it. This group picture of the working / senior royals is not sending the right message I think...
It has been clear for a while now that both Princess Alexandra and the Duke of Kent are rather frail.
Both have done their duty and given their adult lifetimes in service to the monarch.
I applaud the King for honouring them and their dedication by including them in this coronation.
