In a video message last month, Kate, 42, the Princess of Wales, said tests taken following major abdominal surgery she underwent in January had uncovered cancer, something she described as a /”huge shock./”
William, 41, has been absent from official engagements since then as the couple and their three young children come to terms with the impact of the news.
Although he and his eldest son Prince George were pictured watching their favorite soccer team Aston Villa play last week, Thursday marked the first time William carried out official public appearances since Kate’s highly-personal announcement.
He visited a youth center which received regular deliveries from the charity Surplus to Supper. The charity’s operations director Claire Hopkins reflected on Prince William’s good spirits after his wife and father cancer diagnosis.
Kate, often referred to by her maiden name Kate Middleton, will return to public duties herself when her medical team say she is well enough to do so, her office has said, but no timescale has been put on this.
Her illness comes at the same time as the king has been absent from public duties since his diagnosis. However, he did greet crowds during a walkabout after an Easter church service at the end of March.
