King Charles is currently undergoing cancer treatment after announcing his diagnosis in February

Princess Anne and Prince Edward should be at the "front and centre" of the Royal Family as King Charles is treated for cancer, Lee Cohen has claimed.

The royal commentator praised His Majesty's siblings and said they are "admirable" members of the monarchy, and suggested they should be the focus of royal duties.


This comes as the King continues his cancer treatment after announcing his diagnosis in February. The monarch is set to make his first public appearance since beginning treatment on Easter Sunday.

The Princess of Wales has also paused all royal duties, after announcing her own cancer diagnosis last week.

Appearing on GBN America, Lee Cohen told host Nana Akua that it's "really time to focus" on other senior members of the Royal Family in the King and Princess's absence.

Queen Camilla and Prince William have also stepped up royal duties to cover for King Charles and Princess Kate.

In praise of the Royal Family, Cohen said: "It's time to focus on really valuable and admirable members of the family like the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Edward, the Princess Royal and the Duchess of Edinburgh.

"All of them are really carrying the torch forward in the most admirable way, and certainly Queen Camilla herself too."

Cohen continued: "I think we've got these really terrific examples in the Royal Family. So let's praise them and let's put them at the centre."

In agreement with Cohen, Nana suggested the Royal Family could make the decision to "resurrect Prince Andrew" to uptake royal duties to support the monarchy.

Nana explained: "The monarchy is really dwindling. Although Prince Andrew's association with Epstein, nobody even wants to talk about it because it's so horrendous, the fact is, he wasn't charged with anything, was he?

"So he's not really guilty of anything according to the court of law."

Cohen simply agreed: "Indeed."

When asked how he feels about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle possibly being reinstated as working royals, Cohen said the "feeling in the Royal Family and royal household is that they can't be trusted."

Cohen explained: "Meghan and Harry, they have become nothing but celebrity influencers.

"What a horrible time to even give them the possibility of doing any harm when everyone is just heartsick over both the King and the Princess's news."
