“Stay Strong, Dear Mom…” Prince George Breaks Down as Kate Middleton Begins Second Round of Chemotherapy: “They Said My Mother Might Not Come Back…”
In a heartbreaking moment that has shaken hearts across the world, young Prince George, just 11 years old, was seen tearfully hugging his mother, Princess Kate Middleton, as she departed for her second round of chemotherapy. The touching farewell unfolded behind palace walls but has since been confirmed by royal aides close to the family.
“Stay strong, dear Mom…” George reportedly whispered, clinging tightly to his mother. Witnesses say the young prince was visibly distraught, overcome with fear and confusion. “They said my mother might not come back…” he sobbed, words that reveal the unbearable weight he now carries at such a tender age.
Princess Kate, 43, revealed earlier this year that she had been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. The announcement shocked the world, especially as she had maintained a busy schedule of royal duties just weeks before her diagnosis. While the Palace has remained discreet about the details of her condition, it confirmed that she has been undergoing treatment privately with her family by her side.
Prince William, who has taken on more royal responsibilities in his wife’s absence, has continued to provide strength and stability for their three children—George, Charlotte, and Louis—who are reportedly struggling to understand the severity of their mother’s illness.
“Kate has always been the rock of the family,” a close friend of the couple shared. “Even now, facing the toughest battle of her life, her concern is for the children. She tries to keep smiling for them.”
Sources say Princess Kate took time to gently explain the process to George and his siblings before her second chemotherapy session. Still, for a child like George—third in line to the throne—the idea of losing his mother is unfathomable.
“It’s been a nightmare behind palace walls,” one royal insider admitted. “They’re doing everything to keep life normal for the children, but it’s impossible to shield them from everything. George is old enough to understand that cancer is serious.”
In recent weeks, the royal family has remained tight-lipped, asking the media and public for privacy. However, images of Prince George wiping away tears as he watched his mother’s car leave the palace grounds have since sparked global concern and sympathy.
