'Determined' Prince William Stepping Up for Royal Family Despite 'Trying Circumstances' With Cancer-Stricken Wife Kate: 'He's Still Being Himself'
Prince William has been increasing his royal duties lately.
Prince William is "thriving in his role" as Prince of Wales, even though he is grappling with King Charles and Princess Kate's cancer struggles.
"I think it remains very positive that Prince William has really stepped up to the mark with the king being out of action for a few months," royal photographer Samir Hussein told an outlet.

"Prince William’s been through so much, obviously, with what’s been happening with Kate, which we didn’t know about for so long," he added. "I think he’s done remarkably well in really, really trying circumstances."
In the wake of her continued preventative chemotherapy treatments, his future queen did not attend the Colonel's Review on Saturday, June 8, for Trooping the Colour rehearsals. Although it is still unknown if HRH will go to the actual event on Saturday, June 15, some insiders speculate she may appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony.
The Prince of Wales has faced 'inner turmoil' over the losses and trauma he has has experienced in his life.
As far as when Her Royal Highness will return to normal royal duties, a Kensington Palace spokesperson also told the outlet: "The princess is not expected to return to work until it's cleared by her medical team. Early childhood will continue to be central to her public work."
Kate has not appeared in public at an event or engagement since Christmas Day 2023. Meanwhile, King Charles returned to public royal duties in late April, and his medical team continues to claim the monarch is "doing well" with his treatments.
Both the sovereign and Princess of Wales' types of cancer have not been disclosed to the public. Some medical insiders have claimed the King is likely dealing with a lymphoma malignancy whereas the future queen could be using chemo to destroy potential cancer cells in her colon.
Prince William has stood by his wife and father's sides throughout their ordeals this year, but one royal insider suggests these double "blows" when added to losing Diana, Princess of Wales, when he was only 15, could have the future king "in crisis."

Prince William's fans have reportedly branded the backstage selfie with Taylor as shade toward the Sussexes.
"Losing his mother at such a young age is guaranteed trauma and inner h---, especially because she died so suddenly," they said. "This institution requires stoicism at all times in public, so there is a possibility he had to repress much of his grief just like Harry. These new cancer scares with the King and Princess of Wales may have awakened all those suppressed emotions, even 27 years later."
The Prince of Wales will not accede to the British throne until the death of his father, Charles III.
