Prince William was “completely crestfallen” after learning about wife Princess Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, royal biographer Robert Jobson revealed.

“It was devastating for him,” the author, 60, told Us Weekly in an interview published on Wednesday, August 7. Robert, whose book Catherine, the Princess of Wales: A Biography of the Future was published earlier this week, added that William, 42, likely felt “a lump in [his] throat” or an “empty feeling in his stomach” when he heard the news about Kate’s cancer.

“It wobbled him,” he added. “There’s no doubt about that.”

Meanwhile, Kate, 42, was “very stoic,” Robert said.
