This situation represents one of the most difficult years of his life, however, the support of his siblings, Harry and Meghan, has shone through his absence, maintaining their usual pattern since stepping down from their royal duties.
An Intimate Party in the middle of the Family Storm
Despite family difficulties, Prince William managed to enjoy a private and discreet celebration in the company of his wife and children. As a culmination of the day, he and his three little ones went to Wembley Stadium to witness Taylor Swift’s show live. However, this happy break represents only a respite in the marathon of challenges facing the heir to the British throne.
