A recent report suggests that Prince William is grappling with “deep-seated anxiety” dealing with tough time given Kate Middleton’s, health situation
According to a royal expert, this challenging time has placed significant emotional strain on Prince William as he supports Kate through her health battle.
Reports from GB News have highlighted comments from royal author Jennie Bond, who defended Prince William against criticism for his limited involvement in recent public engagements. Bond emphasized that Prince William has been “wrongly criticized” for not participating in many public events, pointing out the significant personal challenges he is facing.

Journalist Dawn Neesom questioned whether Prince William might fear “history repeating itself” under “obviously different circumstances,” referencing the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana. Bond agreed, stating that such fears likely cause “underlying anxiety” for the future king.
William’s going through a lot right now
Bond went on to express empathy for William, imagining his thoughts during all this difficult time. “If I were in his shoes, I’d be wondering, ‘Why me? This happened when I was 15—I lost my mother, and now I don’t have my brother either.” Then he continued: his father is battling cancer, and plus his wife, who as he said means everything to him and is the mother of his three children, is also facing this terrible illness.’”
Despite the emotional strain, it is reported that William plans to balance his royal duties with supporting Kate. He is expected to continue the work he has been doing so far, with a big hope that his wife will manage to beat all the challenges.
It is a tough time within the Royal Family, with his father sick, his wife sick and his brother away and off contacts. Tough times for William, but we wish him nothing but the best and we hope that the family strength will prevail. After all these are another human beings just like the rest of us.
