    Media Coverage

    The story leads the tabloids.

    Trending – Prince William opens up about brutal year 

    Prince William has opened up about the ‘brutal’ year he and his family have faced following his wife’s cancer diagnosis. William also discussed his father’s cancer diagnosis and expressed how proud he was of both of them for the way they handled their health issues. 

    Speaking to reporters at the end of his trip to South Africa, William said: “It’s been dreadful. It’s probably been the hardest year in my life. So, trying to get through everything else and keep everything on track has been really difficult.”

    The Prince of Wales has been in South Africa for his Earthshot prize awards ceremony.

    Basic facts

    • Prince William opened up about the tough year he has faced
    • His father King Charles and wife Princess Kate were both diagnosed with cancer earlier in the year 
    • He has been in South Africa for his Earthshot prize awards ceremony
    • Five projects each won £1m in prize money for their environmental innovations

    The reaction
