Prince William Under Mounting Pressure as Royal Family Drama Intensifies Amid Kate Middleton Cancer Battle
Prince William is reportedly facing immense stress as tensions within the royal family continue to escalate, leading experts to speculate that the future king may need therapy to cope with the growing pressures.
With his father, King Charles, and wife, Princess Kate, both battling cancer, alongside the never-ending scandals surrounding Prince Andrew and his fractured relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, William is said to be struggling under the weight of it all.
A report from RadarOnline.com has even suggested that the Prince of Wales might be turning to past habits to escape from his overwhelming reality. Allegedly, William had a history of indulging in adult content during his university years at St. Andrews, and sources claim these habits may be resurfacing as a coping mechanism.
Dr. Gilda Carle, a mental health expert, weighed in on the matter, stating, “It’s possible he’s seeking an escape from his grim reality. The issue arises when these fantasies interfere with his duties as a father and future king—he may need therapy.”
One insider went further, claiming that William was once banned from a video store at St. Andrews for failing to return certain films. Specifically, the 2002 comedy Boat Trip was mentioned, with a source alleging, “He practically wore the copy out.”
Reports suggest that palace staffers have privately joked about William’s alleged past movie preferences, making the situation even more uncomfortable for Princess Kate. According to one insider, “Kate is stunned that the future king would engage in such behavior. She feels humiliated and has had attendants remove anything overly explicit from his watch lists, fearing the fallout could further disgrace the family.”
The timing of these revelations could not be worse for William, who is already bearing the immense responsibility of leading the royal family in King Charles’ absence as the monarch undergoes cancer treatment. Additionally, the ongoing rift between him and Prince Harry has not healed, further adding to his emotional burden.
Many royal watchers have noted that William’s public appearances have seemed increasingly tense, with some suggesting that he may be struggling behind the scenes more than he lets on.

While the Prince of Wales has always been a dedicated advocate for mental health, openly discussing the importance of seeking help, some experts believe he may need to follow his own advice.
His strained marriage with Kate—who is also facing the fight of her life—has reportedly added another layer of stress. Insiders claim that while the couple remains publicly united, the princess is deeply concerned about how William is handling the pressure.
Furthermore, his ongoing feud with Prince Harry remains a major emotional weight. The two brothers have barely spoken in years, and Meghan Markle’s continued presence in Harry’s life is believed to have made reconciliation even more difficult.
As the future king, William is expected to carry the monarchy into the next generation, but with multiple crises unfolding simultaneously, experts worry he may be reaching a breaking point. If the reports of his past habits are true, they could serve as a red flag that he is struggling to process his emotions in a healthy way.
While Kensington Palace has not commented on these claims, the speculation surrounding William’s mental and emotional state continues to grow.
With his family’s health battles, royal scandals, and the looming responsibility of kingship, the Prince of Wales may soon have to make difficult choices about how to manage the extraordinary pressures of royal life.
