Prince William was left devastated by Princess Kate's cancer diagnosis, a royal commentator has claimed.
The Princess of Wales revealed she had been diagnosed with cancer in March 2024 in a public statement.
The royal underwent significant abdominal surgery earlier this year and cancer was found to be present following medical tests after the operation.
Robert Jobson, a royal commentator, claimed Kate's cancer diagnosis "wobbled" the Prince of Wales.

Jobson told US Weekly regarding Prince William's reaction: "It was devastating for him".
The royal commentator added: "It wobbled him. There is no doubt about that."
So far in 2024, Kate has only made two public appearances, the first came on June 15 at Trooping the Colour alongside her children Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte 9 and Prince Louis, 6.
The second came almost a month later on July 14, during the men's singles final at Wimbledon, where Princess Kate was joined by her daughter Princess Charlotte and sister Pippa Matthews during the appearance on Centre Court.
In a health update, a source claimed that the public appearances are a sign that the Princess of Wales is doing well in her recovery.

The source told the Daily Beast: "Kate has been exceptionally open and honest about her health.
"Making two appearances before the summer break, at Wimbledon and Trooping the Colour, was a clear signal that she is doing well.
"That is what we are hearing privately as well—it’s not over but there is lots of optimism, lots of positivity."
They continued: "It is obviously still an incredibly worrying time but all the signs are that her cancer treatment, which is ongoing, is progressing well."
