While Kate and Meghan grab headlines when they're out on official duties, there's one royal who's been quietly doing almost twice as many royal engagements as both Duchesses put together.
As the royals prepare to wind down for their summer break, Hello magazine has counted up the number of days each royal family member has spent on public engagements this year so far.
And famously hard-working Princess Anne has come out on top again with 73 days of engagements so far in 2019.
In comparison the Duchess of Sussex has had 16 days of engagements, while the Duchess of Cambridge has carried out 25.
They were both beaten by the Queen, 93, who has scaled back her engagements in the past few years, but still spent 28 days on public duties.

Maybe the Monarch was trying to catch up with her daughter last month - as she had a string of public engagements all in one week - starting with Lady Gabriella Windsor's wedding at St George’s Chapel and finishing the week by entertaining thousands of people at Buckingham Palace's annual Garden Party.
The Duchesses husbands, Prince Harry and William, also topped their engagements total, with Prince Harry completing 33 and the The Duke of Cambridge just short of him at 31.
