The royals may live in palaces but aren’t immune to heartbreak. For Prince William, 2024 was nothing short of a nightmare. While Prince William usually keeps his emotions in check, he lost it when Princess Kate was diagnosed with cancer. Then came another punch in the gut– King Charles III was battling cancer, too. How did the royal feel? An ex-royal aide spills it all!

   

Prince William: Kate’s Diagnosis Was A Nightmare

Prince William had a terrible last year as he struggled to hold it all together. In early 2024, Middleton underwent abdominal surgery, and everyone thought she just needed some downtime to get better. However, the Princess of Wales soon received a cancer diagnosis that turned everything upside down.

While she focused on treatment, William had to keep things steady for their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Reality crushed him no matter how much he tried to put on a brave face. Jason Knauf, a former chief executive of the couple’s Royal Foundation, recounted those harrowing moments.

RN/ The timing was cruel for William, with both Kate and Charles facing cancer together.

The former aide shared the details in 60 Minutes Australia’s documentary Where There’s a Will. Moreover, he emphasised how cruel the timing was for William, with both Kate and Charles facing cancer together. “I couldn’t believe it. It was awful, absolutely awful. It’s the lowest I’ve ever seen him,” Jason said. Let that sink in. 

A Secret They Had to Keep

Despite the emotional toll, the Wales royals kept the news private. Their reason? They hadn’t told their kids and didn’t want them to hear about Kate’s illness from the media. “But the problem was that all this crazy conspiracy theory stuff kicked off in the background, online,” Knauf recalled. People thought it was all a facade, but the royal couple remain unfazed.

They focused on protecting their family no matter what. Fast-forward to the present, Kate is now in remission after months of chemotherapy. The future Queen recently visited the Royal Marsden Hospital, where she received treatment. Looking back on her journey, Middleton expressed relief and optimism.

“It takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am, however, looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead,” she said. Don’t miss out on more exclusive updates on the royal family at Soap Opera Daily. It’s amazing to see that William never let the crown stop him from being the husband and father his family needed. Do you agree?
