was admitted to the hospital for a planned abdominal surgery on Tuesday, while Charles, 75, will undergo a “corrective procedure” for an enlarged prostate next week.With two key royal family members out of the public fold for the foreseeable future, the Prince of Wales, 41, must now “step up” to the plate.“It’s quite unusual to have two royals out of action, and it’s going to put more pressure on William,” Grant Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales, exclusively told The Post.“I’m sure he’s feeling anxious, as you would be.
