Prince William Ambushed With Get Well Cards for Kate and Charles
Prince William was handed get well soon cards for his wife and father by a well-wisher Thursday as he made his first in-person appearance since Kate revealed her cancer diagnosis. The prince appeared to be taken aback by the gesture, and, swiftly changed the subject, alighting on a pan of spaghetti hoops as a convenient conversational prop.
Although there is no suggestion the charity worker who handed him the cards had anything other than the best intentions, Kensington Palace and William are likely to be irritated at the distraction as they tried to return to business as usual during William’s first job back in the saddle after he spent the Easter holidays focused on his family.
William was visiting food distribution charity Surplus to Supper in Surrey, and was touring the facility’s kitchen, when one of the charity’s volunteers, reached below her food serving station and produced two cards for his wife and father which she handed to the prince.
