Prince William has made his first public comments on the health issues faced by The King and The Princess of Wales.
The Prince spoke out as he arrived at a gala dinner for the London Air Ambulance.

His remarks were also the first time he has spoken about his father since Charles III revealed he had been diagnosed with cancer.
Walking into the gala event, the heir to the throne said ”we really appreciate everyone’s kind messages, thank you.”
Prince William had earlier returned to royal duties when he held an investiture at Windsor Castle.

And he ended his first day back in glittering company as Hollywood star, Tom Cruise, joined him at the gala.
