Prince George spotted for first time amid Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis – and everyone is saying the same thing
|Prince George and his siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, have gone through an exceptionally challenging time in recent weeks. Their mother, Kate Middleton, not only underwent abdominal surgery in January, but in March, she announced she had cancer.
The children reportedly found out about it in February. Still, in the weeks following the official announcement, George and his siblings have been able to spend quality time with their parents at Anmer Hall in Sandringham during their Easter break.
Like their mother, Prince George, his younger sister, and younger brother haven’t been seen in public for months. However, just days ago, the young prince and future king were caught by cameras at a soccer game – and everyone is saying the same thing.
Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis announcement was a huge shock. Fans worldwide had been wondering how the Princess of Wales had been doing since the abdominal surgery in January, and on March 22, Kate finally decided to tell the world.

But, most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them and to reassure them that I am going to be okay,” Kate said in the video.
Prince George “can’t be shielded” from getting question’s about Kate Middleton’s cancer
Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis were said to have been told about their mother’s cancer diagnosis in February.

As the Princess of Wales is now undergoing her treatment, which involves “a course of preventative chemotherapy,” she and her husband want to protect their children as much as they can. Therefore, the announcement made on March 22 at 6 pm GMT was not a coincidence.
According to the Sunday Times, the cancer announcement video was released just a few hours after their children’s school had closed so their friends wouldn’t immediately ask questions about it. At that point, they had gotten the news.
“George is ten now and can’t be shielded from any of this now,” a palace source told the Times. “Once it’s at the school gate and in the school playground, he won’t be able to avoid it.”
So, how do you tell your children that you have cancer? One person, King Charles’ former butler Grant Harrold, argues that Prince William and Kate Middleton explained it differently to each of the children.
“Charlotte and George are going to be good supports for her”
Speaking with The Post, Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales, said that the couple most likely “sugarcoated” her health issues when they broke the news to Prince Louis.
