Experts state Prince William’s ’emotional stress’ after Kate Middleton and King Charles III’s medical procedures

The announcement of the health status of King Charles III of the United Kingdom and Princess Kate Middleton has worried all British people, but royal experts highlight Prince William‘s ’emotional stress’ these medical procedures have caused him.

On January 17th, Kensington Palace announced that Kate underwent planned abdominal surgery and posponed her duties until Easter. Hours later, Buckingham Palace shared that Charles III is preparing for an enlarged prostate treatment and that he will be absent “for a short period”.

After these news reports, it is expected that Prince William, heir to the throne, will assume the work in their place, but according to royal commentator Jonathan Sacerdoti, this “will be a stressful time having both his father and wife in the hospital“.

The psychotherapist Dr. Robi Ludwig said that the Prince of Wales and father of three young children faces “additional emotional stress and pressure on him“, but he added that he “has been trained his whole life to manage and prepare for these types of challenges“.

“I’m sure he also has a lot of resources at his disposal“, said Ludwig, a fact that the British people want to trust, but as Sacerdoti said, “the nation will all want to support him and the entire royal family” during this time.
