With his father King Charles III undergoing treatment for cancer and his wife recovering from surgery, Britain’s Prince William returned to royal frontline duties on Wednesday.
The king’s shock cancer diagnosis, announced on Monday, and Catherine’s abdominal operation have left William shouldering a heavy royal burden.
William, 41, Charles’s eldest son and heir to the throne, postponed public engagements to care for his wife, the Princess of Wales, and their three children after she was admitted to hospital on January 16.
