Prince William and Kate Middleton, the Prince and Princess of Wales, are recognized as two of the most popular royals. Many are praying for the Princess of Wales' speedy recovery.

Could the Prince and Princess of Wales be key to saving a monarchy plagued by a health crisis? Some royal experts seem to think so. King Charles III, who once expressed his desire for a slimmed-down monarchy, has witnessed several key members of the royal family become sidelined. Both he and Kate Middleton are battling cancer, and his sister, Princess Anne, recognized as his right-hand woman, has been hospitalized for a concussion.

Prince Andrew has been keeping a low profile since his scandal involving Jeffrey Epstein resulted in a nuclear interview in 2019, while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to live in California after making their exit in 2020. 'William and Kate, far and away the most beloved members of the royal family, really are the pillars on which the future of the monarchy rests,' Christopher Andersen, author of 'The King,' told Fox News Digital.

Andersen believes all eyes are on William even more now as heir to the throne. As for Kate, everyone seems to be waiting with bated breath for her official return to public life. 'The simple truth is that the royal family cannot be whittled down to a precious few without the risk of having it grind to a halt altogether,' Andersen explained. 'For over 70 years, the Windsors had longevity on their side – almost to a ridiculous extent.

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams agreed. 'The Prince and Princess of Wales have been the future of the monarchy since their marriage,' he explained. 'After them, their children … Kate has star power, beauty, poise and dedication. She and William have a very special cachet as a couple. She is championing studies in early childhood, and this is an important cause. 'Princess Anne’s accident this week shows what can happen, quite unexpectedly,' Fitzwilliams shared.
