This revelation sheds light on a controversial moment when Prince William was notably absent from the funeral of his godfather, King Constantine in Greece. At the time, his absence raised eyebrows, but with the context of Kate's health struggles, his absence becomes more understandable.
Yet, it's hard to overlook the fact that if the royal palace had been more forthcoming about Middleton's health issues from the beginning, this situation might not have escalated to the extent that it has. Transparency could have spared them much of the public scrutiny.
From Daily Mail UK:
William has already been adjusting his royal duties to devote even more time to his family after Kate was first admitted to the London Clinic in January.
The couple have both been dedicated to doing their fair share of the school run each morning and afternoon since their three children began attending £24,000-a-year Lambrook School near Ascot in Berkshire in September 2022.

The co-ed institution is not far from the family's Frogmore Cottage home on the Windsor estate - and is also convenient for visits by the princess's parents.
Carole and Michael Middleton live just 33 miles away in Bucklebury, Berkshire, and the strong mother-daughter bond has been a key feature of troubled recent months.
Kate's siblings Pippa, 40, and James, 36, are also close at hand in Bucklebury.
William's decision not to attend the memorial service for King Constantine came as a surprise at the time, with the reason described as 'personal reasons'.
Also missing was his father King Charles, himself receiving treatment for cancer.
Queen Camilla was instead the most senior member of the Royal Family in attendance, with William's uncle Prince Andrew also enjoying a prominent role as he led fellow royals on foot to the service.
Constantine was the godfather of William, who is said to have called the Greek royal family to apologise for not being there.
