Prince William, Princess Kate release joint message after health 'panic'

Prince William and Princess Kate joined forces with King Charles to mark a key event in a newly released video. 

On June 28, Kensington Palace released a captivating video featuring old clips of the Prince and Princess of Wales' engagements with the armed forces.

The royal couple wrote, "Proud to mark Armed Forces Day."

"Thank you to everyone serving in the British Armed Forces, and to all veterans, for your courage, dedication and sacrifice."

Notably, the future King and Queen's new joint post came after Catherine's last-minute withdrawal from Royal Ascot 2025 created 'panic' among Palace's aides. 

An insider told the Daily Beast that Princess Kate's absence from a significant royal gathering left the royal aides "bewildered and worried."

The source claimed that the "rumours had briefly swirled around the palace that the future queen had been taken unwell and either needed to see a doctor or had been rushed to the hospital."

However, Catherine returned to royal engagements behind the scenes, seemingly dismissing the growing speculations as she was in remission from cancer.
