This is his first official release since Kate's cancer announcement. Prince William, heir to the British crown, resumed his public activities this Thursday with a visit to a food aid association.
According to videos shared by royal correspondents, the 41-year-old prince arrived in the middle of the day at Surplus for Supper, an association for the redistribution of surplus food, located in Surrey, west of London. He is then expected at a youth center in the British capital which regularly receives deliveries from the association. Founded in 2017, it redistributes more than three tonnes of food daily and is preparing to reach the threshold of the equivalent of three million meals saved from food waste, according to Kensington Palace, which emphasizes the environmental aspect of the project, one of Prince William's priorities.
William and George seen last week
Since the announcement at the end of March of the Princess of Wales' cancer, William was seen last Friday in the stands of the Aston Villa-Lille match in Birmingham, in the company of his eldest son George, 10 years old. Relaxed and smiling, the prince, a fervent supporter of the Birmingham club, wore a scarf in the colors of the team, which won the Europa Conference League quarter-final first leg match 2-1.
Princess Kate, very popular wife of the heir to the throne, revealed in a video at the end of March that she had cancer, without specifying its nature, and had started preventive chemotherapy, describing it as a “huge shock”. The couple and their children did not take part, a week later, in the traditional Easter religious service at St. George's Chapel, west of London.
Buckingham Palace also announced in early February that the king was suffering from cancer, detected during a prostate operation a few days earlier. He is also undergoing treatment and continues to perform certain official functions or keep appointments in small groups.
