Following his recent royal engagement, Prince William shared a positive update on Kate Middleton and their children.
The Duke of Cambridge, aged 41, engaged with well-wishers who had gathered to greet him after his visit to James’ Place Newcastle in northeast England on April 30.
During these interactions, William briefly touched upon his wife’s health, given her postponement of public royal duties due to cancer treatment, and offered insight into the well-being of their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
This exchange occurred as he conversed with two women draped in Union Jack flags, as documented in a video shared on Instagram by the fan account WalesVideos.
In response to one woman’s inquiry about his family’s welfare, William replied, “We’re all doing well, thank you.” When further asked about Catherine’s condition, he reiterated, “We’re all doing well.”
Prince William’s visit to northeast England included engagements at 2022 Earthshot Prize finalist Low Carbon Materials and mental health organization James’ Place, marking his third consecutive day of public royal duties since his wife disclosed her cancer diagnosis on March 22.
Princess Kate, aged 42, communicated in a self-penned video message that she was undergoing chemotherapy following post-operative tests linked to her January abdominal surgery, which revealed the presence of cancer.
Strategically timed during the Easter break when their children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—were out of school, this update allowed the family to spend private time together.
Following Kate’s health disclosure, William took a hiatus from public duties, resuming them the day after their children returned to school.
During his first official engagement on April 18, the Prince of Wales graciously accepted well-wishes for Princess Kate and King Charles amid their cancer treatments.
At the food distribution charity Surplus to Supper, Prince William expressed gratitude upon receiving cards for his wife and father from volunteer Rachel Candappa. He assured Candappa that he would take care of his wife.
During a visit to St. Michael’s Church of England High School focused on mental health on April 25, thoughtful gifts were sent home with Prince William for his wife, including Lego sunflowers and sunflower seeds, symbolizing happiness, positivity, and strength.
Prince William’s engagements on April 25 also featured anecdotes about his children, such as Princess Charlotte’s current favorite joke and humorous incidents involving the family’s pet guinea pig.
April held special significance for the family, marking Prince Louis’ 6th birthday on April 23 and Prince William and Princess Kate’s 13th wedding anniversary on April 29, both commemorated with new portraits.
