Prince William and the Princess of Wales are set to mark a special occasion “very differently” after Kate’s cancer diagnosis.
The royal couple will celebrate their 13th wedding anniversary on April 29.
However, a royal commentator said the Waleses will not celebrate the same way as usual due to Kate’s health.
Richard Fitzwilliams said: “They will undoubtedly be celebrating their 13th wedding anniversary privately.
