King Charles’s son Prince William has stepped forward to take the throne in his father’s place and carry out the royal duties while his father receives weekly cancer treatments in London.
Most importantly, William is occupied with caring for Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis as well as supporting his wife, who is now recovering from an anticipated abdominal surgery.
William just went to a fundraiser for the London Air Ambulance. He mentioned his father and wife there and expressed gratitude to everyone for “the kind messages of support for my father, especially in recent days,” and for Catherine.
Actor Tom Cruise was among the other guests, and the Prince made a joke about his not being able to “borrow” any of the helicopters.
The Prince said, “It would be appreciated if you wouldn’t mind not borrowing either of the new helicopters for the next Mission Impossible.”
“To put it another way, we’ve all seen on our screens that you seem to view normal wear and tear differently than the rest of us,” he said.
