Prince William has given a rare update on his wife, Princess Kate Middleton, who is battling cancer. On Tuesday, the Prince of Wales made a stop at James’ Place Newcastle in England, where he was greeted by well-wishers. His wife has postponed public-facing duties while receiving treatment. 'Do you mind if I ask how your wife and children are?' says one woman, as heard in a video shared to Instagram by the royals fan account WalesVideos.
We’re all doing well, thank you,' said the father of three. 'And obviously Catherine?' asked the woman. 'We’re all doing well,' the 41-year-old emphasized. According to People magazine, William’s visit to northeast England marked his third day of royal duties since his wife announced her cancer diagnosis. His engagement at James' Place, a mental health organization, also included a visit to the 2022 Earthshot Prize finalist, Low Carbon Materials.
The 75-year-old visited the University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre where he met with medical specialists and patients. The British monarch was joined by his wife, Queen Camilla. In a statement previously obtained by Fox News Digital, the palace announced that the visit 'will be the first in a number of external engagements His Majesty will undertake in the weeks ahead.
Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,' the palace said in a statement at the time. Less than 18 months into his reign, the monarch suspended public engagements. He continued with state business and didn't hand over his constitutional role as head of state. The palace added that the king 'has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer.
The Princess of Wales is still taking a break from royal duties as she recovers.
