Despite recent health concerns in the Royal Family, the Prince and Princess of Wales are doing their utmost to keep things “as normal as possible” for the children. Kate Middleton and Prince William hosted a “private party” to celebrate Prince Louis’ sixth birthday. Despite facing difficult circumstances, the royal couple ensured that their youngest son had a “fun” birthday celebration.
A royal insider told the New York Post that despite receiving chemotherapy, Kate “wants her son to have the best birthday possible, like any mother.” “She’s still going to try to make sure the day is as normal and as much fun for that child as possible, especially when they’re of that young age.”
The Princess of Wales announced her cancer diagnosis in a video in March. Her announcement came after months of curiosity and conspiracy theories surrounding her extended absence following abdominal surgery.
Grant Harrold, King Charles’ former butler, told the outlet, “In the past, there have been birthday parties where friends have been invited, with little George, there were friends invited for parties, and I believe Kate would have organized that.”
“Celebrations will be more reserved and low-key, and there might not be a party with other children like there has been in previous years,” Harrold continued, adding, “Kate’s health will be a priority, but she’ll still want Louis to have as much fun as possible. — how that takes shape, they may want to choose to keep it private.”
“As a family, however, you can guarantee they will still be celebrating his birthday in some form and as normal as possible to make it a memorable day,” he said. “They’re a very private family, as we know, and I can imagine that on this occasion, I’m sure it’ll be a private family occasion.”
The royal couple shared this sweet snapshot of Prince Louis, taken by Kate, to commemorate his sixth birthday. “Happy 6th Birthday, Prince Louis! Thank you for all the kind wishes today,” reads the caption of a photo posted on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official X account.
The heartwarming post received over 400K likes, and royal admirers flooded the comments section with birthday wishes.
“Happy birthday boss, baby! You are getting so big. Thank you, KP for putting this on your own social media page, and not giving it first to the media who harassed our Princess.
We love you Wales Family,” a fan commented. Another wrote, “How precious! What a cute, lovely smile! Happy 6th birthday Prince Louis! Thanks for sharing a new photo with us, Princess.”
