The sweet reason why Prince William will take a short break from royal duties next week
Prince William will continue to prioritise his wife, the Princess of Wales and their three children over his royal duties, a source has claimed.
Kate was 'supported' by Prince William and Princess Kate
Prince William will be taking a fresh break from royal engagements again despite resuming his duties on Wednesday, a source has claimed.
The Prince of Wales's sweet gesture comes as he returns to fully supporting his wife, Princess Kate, who is recovering from the abdominal surgery she had last month and their three children during their half-term holiday.
Kate has been continuing her recovery at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor after spending nearly 14 days at the London Clinic last month for the planned procedure.
Now a source claimed William has made it clear his family comes first before any other duties.
They told the Mail: "The Prince has always made clear that his priority is to support his wife and family for the time being – and he did not put a timescale on that.

"He [made] a return to duties on Wednesday, but you should not expect to see him again for a bit after that."
William is not expected to undertake any engagements this week because it is half term for the children, so he'll be looking after them while they are off school.
The Prince of Wales yesterday attended an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle in the morning and London Air Ambulance's annual fundraising gala in the evening.
William revealed to one of the MBE recipients that Kate has been looked after by two "amazing and kind" Filipino nurses.
Patricia Spruce, who was made an MBE for her work recruiting foreign medics for the NHS, wrote on her LinkedIn page: "Prince William said that Catherine had two Filipino nurses looking after her and they were amazing and kind."

During his speech later in the day, the heir to the throne spoke about his family's health scares in public for the first time.
William also thanked the public for their "kind messages of support".
He said: "I’d like to take this opportunity to say thank you for the kind messages of support for Catherine and for my father, especially in recent days. It means a great deal to us all."
