“Prince William Takes on Weighty Responsibility as He Assists King on International Tour, Shouldering ‘Real Burden’ While Striving to Prioritize Family’s Well-being”

Prince William is facing a “real burden” as he prepares to support the King on his first trip abroad since facing his cancer diagnosis, it has been claimed.

The Prince of Wales will accompany his father to France to mark the 80th anniversary of D-Day.

Discussing the upcoming trip on GB News, royal biographer Angela Levin claimed the King and Prince William have “never been closer”, and “need each other more than ever” amid the ongoing rift with Prince Harry.

Levin told host Mark Dolan that they are supporting each other after Prince Harry has behaved “abominably” towards the Royal Family in recent years.

Levin explained: “They are very close because they’ve both had the very, very difficult feeling of a close friend, a close member of the family who’s behaved abominably.

“They have worked together on climate change and plastic and all those things. And also they’ve had a loved one who’s been very ill so they need each other very badly.”

Levin added that it is “wonderful” to see the King and Prince of Wales so close, and they “work very well” together.

Mark agreed, praising William: “Clearly William is doing a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of his public royal duties, but also as a son.

“There’s an emotional support there as well.”

Levin added: “Also as a father and a husband, I think he’s got a huge thing to do. He wants to do absolutely the maximum, maximum he can for his wife and the maximum he can for his father and the maximum amount for the country. So it’s a real burden.

“But when he goes out, he seems not to show anything that’s heavy and not moaning. And he does his absolute best. I think we should be very proud of him.”
