Today, Prince William offered a rare update on the Princess of Wales’s cancer recovery as he attended a poignant event alongside King Charles and Queen Camila to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day Landings.
Amidst discussions with war veterans, one hero inquired about the Princess’s well-being, to which William responded with assurance, stating, “Yes, she is. She’d have loved to be here.”
William’s interaction with the veteran shed light on the Princess’s family history, particularly her paternal grandmother’s involvement in World War II code-breaking at Bletchley.
Princess Katherine visited the site in 2014, gaining insight into her grandmother Valerie Glassboro’s wartime contributions.

The emotional event saw Charles and Camila visibly moved by a veteran’s recollection of the D-Day horrors. As they listened to stories of bravery and sacrifice, Queen Camila’s outfit choice, a vibrant pink ensemble, stood out among the guests. The significance of her attire, a subtle nod to her previous state visit to France, underscored the UK’s enduring partnership with the European nation.
Furthermore, the color choice paid homage to the late Queen Elizabeth’s preference for bright hues at large-scale events, symbolizing visibility and connection with well-wishers.
In a surprising turn, the Duchess of York, who battled cancer herself, praised King Charles and Princess Katherine for their dedication to cancer research and their bravery in facing their health challenges. Expressing pride in the family’s unity, she sent love and support to them during this challenging time.
Royal fans worldwide have closely followed Princess Katherine’s journey since her cancer diagnosis announcement in March. In her heartfelt video message, she emphasized the importance of privacy for her family, particularly her children, as she undergoes treatment.
As Prince William continues his royal duties, the children of the Princess of Wales have remained out of the spotlight, reflecting the family’s commitment to protecting their privacy during this period of recovery.
The Princess’s resilience and grace in the face of adversity continue to inspire many, with her family’s unwavering support and the outpouring of love and well-wishes from around the world serving as a testament to her strength.
