It has been a turbulent start to the year for the royal family following King Charles' cancer diagnosis and Princess Kate's abdominal surgery. As the Princess of Wales recovers privately at her home in Windsor, with her three children said to be 'doting' on their mother, Charles has started his treatment and recently released a video thanking well-wishers for their support.
But Prince William's decision to pull out of a planned memorial service this week has 'raised questions', according to one royal expert. The Prince of Wales was due to attend a service for his late godfather, King Constantine of Greece, but shared via a Palace spokesperson that he would not be present due to a 'personal matter'. No more details were given, but Kate's health was acknowledged and it was said that she 'continues to be doing well'.
