Prince William has left royal fans in tears after honouring a promise to a grieving schoolboy.
Deacon Glover, 11, confided in the Duke of Cambridge about how he had been struggling with his mum's death from a drugs overdose while at a charity event in Burnley, Lancs., three weeks ago.
William could be heard comforting Deacon as he said: "I lost my mum when I was 15. It's difficult, but it gets easier, I promise you."
