Prince William has revealed the deep struggles his family still faces, eight months after Kate Middleton’s cancer remission. In 2024, both Princess Kate and King Charles III were diagnosed, leaving the royals fighting two health crises at once.
Speaking with actor Eugene Levy, William admitted: “I’d say 2024 was the hardest year I’ve ever had. Life is sent to test us, and overcoming that makes us who we are.”
Although Kate announced remission in January 2025, recovery has not been simple. During a July appearance, she explained: “Treatment’s done, then it’s like, ‘I can get back to normal.’ But actually, the phase afterwards is really difficult. You have to find your new normal, and it takes time. It’s a rollercoaster.”
William added that the scars of the past year remain raw. “Honestly? It’s been dreadful. From a personal family point of view, it’s been brutal,” he said. The royal family continues to balance duty with healing. What do you think—does strength in public life make private struggles harder?
