Prince William popped up at an event today to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day Landings, and boy, did he have some stories to tell! He got to hobnob with some war veterans who probably have more tales than a library full of Harry Potter books.
One cheeky veteran decided it was time for a royal Q&A session and stopped Prince William in his tracks. The burning question? It wasn’t about the weather, cricket, or even the latest royal scandal. Nope, this veteran wanted the lowdown on Princess Catherine.
“Oi, how’s the missus?” the veteran asked, presumably with all the subtlety of a tabloid headline.
As Hello magazine dished, this wasn’t just small talk. The veteran wanted to know if the Princess was “getting better.” Now, if you’ve been living under a rock without WiFi, let me fill you in. Back in March 2024, the 42-year-old Duchess of Cambridge revealed she was diagnosed with cancer and was bravely battling through preventative chemotherapy.
Prince William, ever the gentleman, responded with the grace of a royal and the warmth of a cozy blanket. “She’d have loved to be here,” he said, probably imagining how much Catherine would have enjoyed the company of such a lively crowd.
Even amidst the solemnity of a historic anniversary, there’s always room for a bit of royal chitchat and a touch of heartfelt sentiment.
