“It’s sad”: Prince William told Trump about the condition of his wife and father, the king, who are fighting cancer
Prince William and Donald Trump , the newly elected President of the United States of America, had a personal conversation when they met in Paris to celebrate the opening of Notre Dame Cathedral after the restoration of the fire in 2019. According to the politician, they discussed the health problems of the royal family. The American added that they had a “great conversation.”
In addition, Trump called William a “nice guy.” “He looked very, very good last night. Some people look better in person. He looked great. He looked very good, and I told him so,” the newly elected US president said, according to the BBC.
“I asked him about his wife, and he said she was doing well,” the Republican leader continued, “I asked him about his father, and his father is struggling very hard, and he loves his father and he loves his wife, so it was sad.
As a reminder, the prince’s wife Kate Middleton underwent a preventive course of chemotherapy after doctors detected signs of cancer in the royal person in early 2024. Meanwhile, King Charles III of Great Britain is undergoingcancer treatment. The crown prince was diagnosed with an unknown form of the disease in February after prostate surgery.
Royal sources explained that the reference to the king “fighting hard” refers to his efforts to continue his active life, not his health. Despite the procedures, Charles wants to continue to focus on his work, and plans to travel abroad next year.
“We had a great conversation for half an hour, just over half an hour. We had a great, great conversation,” Trump said. Kensington Palace did not comment on the conversation. Prince William’s diplomatic trip to meet with Trump could help build bridges between the new Republican administration and the UK government.
Trump is an avid fan of royalty. After meeting with the late Queen Elizabeth II, he recounted how he unsuccessfully tried to get her to tell him who her favorite US president or British prime minister was. “I liked them all,” the American said, which the monarch insisted on, although he added: “Many people said I was her favorite president.
