Prince William’s recent behaviour is a sign Kate’s health is improving – it’s great to see, says royal expert
PRINCE William has had an action-packed few days, dancing with his kids at the Taylor Swift concert and watching a Euros game in Germany.
Royal editor Emily Nash has claimed that the Prince of Wales schedule is an indication that Kate Middleton’s health is improving, following her cancer diagnosis.
Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, the royal expert said: “Earlier this year we were seeing William perhaps once a week, and there were lots of caveats around how long he was going to be at an engagement, what time it would be.
“It felt like things were being very much tailored around his duties at home.
“And I think that the fact that he’s out there more, and the fact that we’re seeing Kate in action herself really suggests that they’re making really good progress, so good to see.”
Prince William took his kids to a Taylor Swift concert at Wembley last Friday to celebrate his 42nd birthday.
The Prince of Wales took Prince George, 10, and Princess Charlotte, nine, to the show, alongside fellow royals Zara and Mike Tindall.
The US pop megastar, 34 – an old friend of William’s – kicked off the London leg of her record-breaking Eras Tour on Friday, with American footballer boyfriend Travis Kelce also in attendance.
On Saturday, a selfie of the royals with Swift was posted on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ Instagram account.
It comes after William was spotted in the crowd for England‘s drab 1-1 draw with Denmark in Germany on Thursday in Euro 2024, and him at Royal Ascot on Wednesday.
To celebrate Williams’ birthday, wife Princess Kate posted a snap of her husband with their kids on a beach, adding “We all love you, Papa” to mark his birthday.
While Kate wasn’t in attendance at Taylor Swift, she did celebrate Trooping the Colour earlier this month.
Princess Kate, 42, delighted royal fans by appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony alongside the King, Queen, Prince William and her children.
Saturday’s annual military parade was the first official royal event Kate had attended since Christmas Day, following her cancer diagnosis.
This year King Charles made a key change to the line-up in honour of her return.
The royal mum was joined by Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis as they rode in a carriage during the parade.
They were then joined by Prince William and other royals as they gathered to watch the Royal Air Force’s spectacular flypast.
Last year, King Charles was front and centre as he watched the display next to his son, and heir to the throne, Prince William.

However, the line-up was swapped this year so the monarch could stand next to his beloved daughter-in-law, Kate.
Both King Charles and Princess Kate are undergoing treatment for cancer, and heartwarming images showed them standing shoulder-to-shoulder in front of the crowds.
We previously shared how Princess Kate shared an “emotional” lunch with King Charles just before she told the public about her cancer diagnosis.
