The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTAs) isn’t shy to famous guests and perhaps the biggest name of anyone in attendance was the Prince of Wales and future King of England, who appeared sad as he discussed his wife’s health.
Prince William’s wife of 13 years, Kate Middleton, recently had abdominal surgery at The London Clinic for undisclosed reasons, and Lady Diana Spencer’s son had no intention of revealing those to the public either.
It normally wouldn’t be an issue as the Royal Family are very secretive about health but, in a stark contrast, King Charles III was very open about his own prostate surgery and then his diagnosis of an unrelated cancer.
“I’ve seen less than ever,” Prince William said, on how many films he has watched. “With my wife it’s been a bit… But I hope we catch up, I’ll make my list tonight.”
Why all the hush?
Middleton simply may not want her private affairs to be known to everyone in the world, which is a reasonable request made by many normal people too, but it hasn’t stopped conspiracies and questions flying around…
The question on many lips is if the King is so transparent about his own health to the nation, then why is the ex-Dutchess of Cambridge being so private?
The only thing we know thus far is that it is not cancer, Kensington Palace made that very clear. Nonetheless, many suspect it could be Crohn’s Disease, a hysterectomy or surgery to handle avid refluxes following the delivery of three children in the last decade.

Whatever the reason, it knocked the future Queen off her feet as she needed her entire immediate family to rally around her and to look after her children, George, Charlotte and Louis.
That included her husband who stepped back from official royal duties for a brief period, whilst Middleton is expected to return to hers after Easter once she is back to a full recovery.
‘Looks Like His Dad’: Fans Are Amazed by the Striking Resemblance between Michael Douglas and His Son – Photos
Michael Douglas made a stylish and heartwarming appearance with his sons Cameron, 45, and Dylan, 24, at the 2024 Princess Grace Awards in New York City. The event, held at The Pierre Hotel, celebrated its 40th anniversary, where Michael received the prestigious Prince Rainier III Award. Standing arm-in-arm with his sons, Michael looked classic in a black suit and bow tie, while Dylan matched the sophisticated look with a navy suit, and Cameron brought his own flair with black-framed glasses and a striped tie.
The red-carpet moment left fans marveling at the strong family resemblance. Many commented on how Cameron, in particular, bears a striking resemblance to Michael and his legendary father, Kirk Douglas. Others noted that Dylan’s features are a mix of both his father and his mother, actress Catherine Zeta-Jones.
For Michael, fatherhood has been a profound journey, particularly in his second marriage to Catherine. Now at 80, he reflects on how parenting later in life has made him more patient and involved. He acknowledges some amusing moments, like being mistaken for his children’s grandfather, yet he cherishes his role as a father. Though his first marriage with Diandra Luker had its challenges—especially with his demanding Hollywood career taking precedence—Michael has since embraced the opportunity to rebuild family bonds.
Michael’s eldest son, Cameron, overcame a turbulent past marked by addiction and prison. With his family’s steadfast support, Cameron has since transformed his life, now dedicated to both his own family and his career. Together, the Douglas family radiates resilience, love, and support, creating a legacy that extends beyond the screen.
