But it’s actually his sister Princess Anne who has done the most work this year, according to the Sunday Telegraph.
Its analysis showed she’d been on 180 engagements compared to his more than 160.
Prince Charles was actually third in the list, with his brother Prince Edward second with more than 170 engagements.
Prince William clocked in with 120, the Queen had the same and Prince Harry had more than 90.
