Prince William faces a delicate moment with the cancer diagnoses of his wife, Kate Middleton, and his father, King Charles III. This Wednesday (08), the American magazine People brought details of how the monarch is dealing with his responsibilities as a father, husband and son, in addition to his tribulations as a monarch.
The magazine highlights that William needs to “balance family matters with a high leadership role within the monarchy” and that he “carries the family’s pain.” “Whether you are a prince or a pauper, no one would expect anything like this with your father and wife being treated for cancer,” said a royal source. “William is making a great effort,” added the insider.
William has already resumed his public commitments, but, at first, his priority was to step away from public life to take care of his wife and three children. “William is prioritizing giving her all the time she needs to improve and support, especially for the children,” reinforces a close source.
Royal biographer Ingrid Seward adds: “For William, everything depends on Kate’s well-being.”
‘PRINCE WILLIAM DEALED WITH CALM AND WITHOUT DRAMA’, SAYS ROYAL BIOGRAPHER
Despite the delicate situation at home, William needs to remain firm with his public commitments, after all, he has become the strongest and most well-known face of the Royal Family in full swing. Inevitably, the moment anticipates a little of what he, the next in line of succession, will need to face in the future, when he assumes the throne and takes all the reins for himself.
Even with such – and unexpected – responsibility, William has handled the situation well, according to royal biographer Robert Lacey told People. “The double illness put enormous pressure on William, both as a father and as heir to the family business. It brought all kinds of challenges. He coped calmly and without drama,” he says.
