Prince William has made a heartfelt gesture to support his wife, Kate Middleton, during her cancer treatment by bringing home thoughtful gifts after a recent royal engagement.
After leaving St. Michael’s Church of England school on Thursday, Prince William, 41, was seen carrying presents for Kate, who disclosed her commencement of preventative chemotherapy on March 22.
Among the gifts were Lego sunflowers, chosen for their therapeutic value and symbolism of happiness, positivity, and strength. Kerry Whitehouse, the school’s senior mental health lead, explained that the sunflower seeds accompanying the Lego were meant to sow seeds of positivity.
“We didn’t want to give flowers but something significant to represent the theme of the day,” Whitehouse told People. “He thanked us and said the Lego would go down well in the house.”
In addition to the Lego sunflowers, Prince William also received a crocheted starfish for Kate, symbolizing making a difference to others. Gifts for their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, were also provided, including crocheted “well-being worms” and positivity cards with emotion wheels.

The visit to the school was prompted by a touching letter from 12-year-old pupil Freddie Hadley, inviting the Prince and Princess of Wales to see their work.
Prince William’s gesture comes after a period of relative seclusion from public engagements, during which he spent time with his family while their children were on their Easter holidays.
The thoughtful gifts reflect his commitment to supporting Kate through her cancer battle and fostering positivity and strength within their family.
