Prince William and how he weathered 2024 to come back on top



The BBC wrote an objective article (For Once) about Prince William and how he weathered this year to come back on top.             

   Drawing similarities from 1992, his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II own "Annus Horribilis"; as there were multiple marriage breakdowns within the family and a major fire at Windsor🔥

    Now 32 years later, Interestingly set in the backdrop of Windsor as well, Prince William faced his own Sombre Year full of turmoil and Health crisis for both his wife and father. The Article reads:

 

"It was a year in which certain aspects of Prince William's approach were cemented: family came first, the school run was prioritised. For the Prince of Wales, this time of turbulence appears to have reinforced what matters to him most."🔥

    Indeed you cannot describe Prince William without calling him a "Family Man"❤️

    The article quotes a friend of the Prince commenting: 

"I think what was remarkable was just how hard it was for the Prince of Wales at the start of the year; His wife had gone in for major surgery and it became worse than expected. Then there was, 'How do I tell my three children that Mummy is ill?'"

"At a time when he was trying to protect his wife and children, he had that terrible thought that that if his father dies then everything changes,"💔

"He was having to operate against the backdrop of the entire world questioning what was happening to his wife."

     Indeed in the end, when one face something as serious as a Cancer diagnosis with a young family, the last thing someone should face is public harrassment and pressure to take pictures and wave🤡

      Yet as the BBC noted, William's maturity in dealing with such a stressful situation offered a great insight into "Prince William's way of doing things". The article states:

"Yes, he understood that his was a life where duty and service are expected. But for him, a man who had experienced immense loss at a young age, his wife and children were most important of all."

     The Article continues:

"There were two other important factors at home that helped the Prince of Wales support his wife and children: his in-laws, the Middletons and living in Windsor."🔥

   Indeed, Windsor provided a privacy they could not have had if they still lived in KP, London while the steadfast support and  loyalty of the Middletons, allowed them a circle of trust and support to operate within.

    A support that was later acknowledged by Prince Louis when he wrote on his christmas card:

"Thank you to Grannie and Grandpa for playing games with me"❤️

     Ultimately, as humans we all face, sooner or later, our own "annus Horribilis". For all of us, that period becomes a life-changing test that either breaks us or makes us stronger.

   

This Crisis has definitely strengthened William and Catherine as Individuals and as a couple. It is when faced with adversity that we can truly measure what we are made of and who genuinely stands by our side🔥

    Well and so, the lesson here is that Every "annus horribilis" may start as such but ultimately becomes a significant victory when we focus on getting ahead rather than on crying about the present challenges.

   Thus, those four videos represent the Year 2024 for the Wales and how they hang on and persevered to change their story from "Annus horribilis" to "Annus Victores"🥂☕️
