William spends a lot of time with the children
He has reportedly asked other members of the royal family to fulfill his public duties so he can stay at home with Kate and their children Prince George (10), Princess Charlotte (8) and Prince Louis (5). "They know their mother is ill and trying to recover," a source told Us Weekly.

The insider continued: "William is trying to be there for Kate and help where he can. He does schoolwork with the children and spends time with them in the afternoons and evenings." Kate also worries a lot about the three children: "She gets tired quickly, but she tries to spend as much time as possible with her children."

William is a "source of reassurance" for Kate
After weeks of speculation about the princess's health, she announced on Friday via video that she had been diagnosed with cancer.
