Princess Kate's moving solo video: That's why Prince William wasn't "by her side". She ended her message with a compassionate note, saying: 'To everyone affected by cancer, no matter what cancer, please do not lose faith or hope.

You are not alone' The fact that Kate chose exactly this time affects him as heir to the throne, father and, above all, as a husband. No doubt the prince is proud of his wife's courage and decision to announce the news when and how she wanted.
