Prince William shared another update on wife Kate Middleton at St. Mary’s Community Hospital in the Isles of Scilly on Friday.
The future king, 41, appeared upbeat at the engagement as he greeted bystanders. The Isles of Scilly are known to be a favorite getaway for the Prince and Princess of Wales and their three children — Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.
“May I ask how Princess Kate is doing?” hospital administrator Tracy Smith asked in a video via Sky News.
“She’s doing well, thank you,” he replied.
“Lovely, and the children as well?” Smith went on.
William added: “The children are very jealous that I’m here and that they’re not here as well.”
When asked if he will “bring them later in the year” to the Friday location, the royal noted that they may spend time there privately sometime in the future.
Middleton, 42, for her part, has remained out of the spotlight since announcing her cancer diagnosis in March.
The Post revealed that the Waleses “sugarcoated” her health woes when breaking the news to their youngest child, Louis, but had a more “difficult” conversation with George and Charlotte.
The couple’s close confidante Amaia Arrieta, meanwhile, recently said the pair are “going through hell.”
“I’m heartbroken at the moment … I hope they will be back. It’s really personal,” Arrieta told the Telegraph.
Speculation on Middleton’s whereabouts ran rampant following Middleton’s pre-planned abdominal surgery in January until she made her health announcement. At the time, Prince William was “upset and angry” over the situation, according to a former staffer.
“William is strong-minded, stubborn sometimes. That, and his emphasis on family life, will give him the backbone and strength to get through this,” Valentine Low recently told People.
As William and his father, King Charles III, have resumed royal duties — and the monarch, 75, is battling his own cancer — estranged Prince Harry was briefly in the UK this week for the 10th anniversary of his Invictus Games. Harry, 39, didn’t see anyone from the Firm and has since reunited and traveled to Nigeria with wife Meghan Markle.
