Zara Tindall, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie and Lady Louise Windsor are at risk of feeling "forced into royal duties after years out of the limelight", a PR expert has claimed.
King Charles's nieces have never performed official duties, only appearing at mass family gatherings in a private capacity.
However, with the King's and Princess Kate's current cancer diagnoses, some commentators have suggested that the monarch's nieces and nephews should undertake royal duties to fill gaps in the diary.
The current working royals are mostly over the age of 60, except for Prince William, aged 41, and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, aged 59.

The Princess of Wales is 42, however, she has stepped back from duties to focus on her course of preventative chemotherapy.
This has created a gap in the list of younger working royals, especially since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moved to the US in 2020.
Meanwhile, the Wales children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, are currently too young to perform duties, so it will be at least a decade before they attend engagements.
Earlier this week, Zara, 43, Beatrice, 35, and Eugenie, 34, wowed crowds at a Buckingham Palace garden party where they supported the Prince of Wales.

Lady Louise Windsor, 20, did not join her royal cousins as she is currently studying at the University of St Andrews.
Laura Perkes, a PR strategist and reputation manager, spoke exclusively to GB News to explain the disadvantages of Zara, Beatrice, Eugenie and Louise becoming working royals, should they choose to undertake more official duties.
She claimed: "It may be that Zara, Beatrice, Eugenie and Louise feel forced into royal duty after years of enjoying being out of the limelight and living relatively 'normal' and 'quiet' lives away from the spotlight.
"As such, it may take longer for the public to warm up to them and accept them as influential, public figures."
