Prince William describes ‘balancing act’ of telling kids about Kate Middleton’s cancer
Prince William says that telling kids Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis about their mom Kate Middleton’s cancer was a “balancing act.”
The Prince of Wales described the “challeng[ing]” process to Brazilian television host Luciano Huck during his Earthshot Prize Awards trip last week.
“I think it is very individual and sort of moment-dependent as to how you deal with those problems,” William said in an interview shared via Instagram over the weekend.
He and Middleton “chose to communicate a lot more” with their little ones, William recalled during the sit-down.
“That has its good things and its bad things,” the prince, 43, explained. “Sometimes you feel you’re oversharing with the children [things] you probably shouldn’t.”
However, he clarified, “Most of the time, hiding stuff from them doesn’t work. … There [are] a lot more questions when there [are] no answers.”
