Prince William Says He and Kate Told Their Children Everything About Her Cancer

In a Brazil TV interview, William described a family strategy of full transparency with their children.

Overview

  • William said he and Kate chose complete openness with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, acknowledging the ‘difficult questions’ that followed.
  • He confirmed none of the children currently have phones and said George may get a device without internet at secondary school, calling the issue “a bit of a tense” topic.
  • The interview was recorded during William’s trip to Brazil, where he hosted the Earthshot Prize and addressed the Cop30 climate summit in Belém.
  • Kate underwent chemotherapy in 2024 and is in remission, and both she and King Charles have returned to public duties after their cancer treatments.
  • An excerpt from Robert Jobson’s forthcoming book claims William sought to step back further from duties in 2024 and that the King declined; the assertion has not been corroborated by the palaces.
