Prince William’s Unwavering Support for Kate Middleton During Cancer Battle

A source close to the royal couple said Prince William has been a rock for Kate Middleton since her diagnosis with cancer. The Prince, who has always put the family at the helm, has found time away from his royal duties as the two break off together during the Easter holidays to give Kate and the three children quality time as a family.

In an emotional video message breaking the news of the diagnosis, Kate thanked William for his unwavering support and said he was, for her, a “great source of comfort and reassurance.” The source shared that William’s strength of character has stopped Kate from “feeling isolated,” adding that they are tackling the issue together as a “team.

The Duke and Duchess have focused on their own tight family circle of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, who have been a great pillar of support for William and Kate. They are this time doing so from their country residence in Anmer Hall, Norfolk—away from distractions where focus is dedicated to the respective health of each other.

With her now in gear to embark on a course of preventive chemotherapy, Kate’s focus will be on getting back to health. The couple isn’t expected at the traditional Easter Service in Windsor this weekend, with King Charles and Queen Camilla both expected to be in attendance. The source went on to emphasize that William’s prime concern is his family, and they really did all they could to pull together into a very close, committed unit at this horrendously difficult time.
