NEW DELHI: Prince William resumed his public engagements on Thursday by visiting the Surplus to Supper charity in Surrey, England. This marked his first official appearance since the announcement of his wife Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis. Surplus to Supper is known for its efforts to redistribute excess food to those facing food insecurity.
During his visit, the Prince engaged actively with the charity’s operations, assisting in the kitchen, helping to load food trucks, and conversing with the staff.Photographs from the event captured him receiving ‘get well soon’ cards for both his wife and his father, King Charles III, from a volunteer named Rachel Candappa. Prince William expressed his gratitude, remarking, “Thank you very much, that’s kind,” according to ITV News.
This public appearance follows a recent outing where Prince William and his eldest son, Prince George, were seen at an Aston Villa soccer game, indicating the Prince’s gradual return to public life.
The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, disclosed her cancer diagnosis in March through a video release, following speculations about her health due to her absence from public duties. She did not specify the type of cancer but mentioned she would be undergoing “preventative chemotherapy.” This announcement came shortly after her planned abdominal surgery in January.
Adding to the family’s health concerns, King Charles III was also diagnosed with an unspecified type of cancer in February, as reported by Time Magazine.
The royal family continues to fulfill their public roles amid these personal challenges, demonstrating their commitment to their duties and public service.
