The British royal family reported on February 13 that Prince William is doing everything he can to protect his wife, Princess Kate, and help her recover from abdominal surgery. At the same time, he had to deal with the news that his father, King Charles, was suffering from cancer, as it meant that King Charles had to cancel and postpone upcoming public events while he began treatment. Faced with a stressful situation, Prince William not only has to take care of his wife and three children, but also fulfills his royal duties.
Elsa Anderson, the former queen's former press secretary, said on GB News: "I think William will try to protect her from pressure as much as possible. I've heard they're going to Sandringham next week for a half-term break to recuperate. I think he'll try to give her enough space to recover. ”
Not only that, but Elsa also responded to criticism from those who accused Prince William of not being adequately prepared before Princess Kate's surgery. "Stop making things difficult for them," she said! For Prince William, family and responsibility are inextricably linked. We don't know what they did behind the scenes. There are meetings, there is paperwork, there are plans. And they also have three small children. ”
In addition, there are claims in the royal family that Prince William is "still processing" King Charles' cancer diagnosis.
According to the Sunday Times, there is some confusion in some royal circles about Prince William's schedule of intensely protecting himself. But a person familiar with him told the newspaper: "At such a moment, this is a reminder that he is not only the future head of state, but also a person." As he takes his role seriously, of course, he also thinks as a person about the news of his father's cancer. ”
Meanwhile, Princess Kate is said to have recovered well after leaving Windsor. Princess Kate, 42, returned to Adelaide Cottage 13 days after undergoing surgery at a London clinic in January to be reunited with her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
After a more than a week in Windsor, she went with Prince William and the children to spend half term vacation at their Ammer Estate in Norfolk. A person familiar with the matter told the Daily Mail: "Princess Kate is recovering well. She was looking forward to a change of scenery, where she could relax in Norfolk while the kids could play with William. ”
It is worth mentioning that Sandringham Manor is also nearby, and the king may spend time with William, Kate and grandchildren during the children's holidays.
Finally, Prince William's actions have attracted attention as he has to deal not only with his father's illness, but also with his wife and children. Under this pressure, he still tries to protect his family, which makes people admire his sense of responsibility and love even more. I hope that Prince William and Princess Kate's family can get through this difficult period and usher in a turnaround soon.
