Prince William<\/strong><\/a> got real about the hard parts of fatherhood \u2014 and why he and Princess Kate Middleton<\/strong><\/a> didn\u2019t hide her health battle from kids Prince George<\/strong>, Princess Charlotte<\/strong> and Prince Louis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery family has its own difficulties and its own challenges, and I think it\u2019s very individual as to how you deal with those problems,\u201d William, 43, told a local Brazilian outlet<\/a> during his recent trip. \u201cWe choose to communicate a lot more with our children.\u201d<\/p>\n

William said there are \u201cgood things\u201d and \u201cbad things\u201d about this parenting style \u2014 especially when it came to revealing details about Kate\u2019s 2024 cancer diagnosis.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes you feel you\u2019re oversharing with the children when you probably shouldn\u2019t,\u201d he added. \u201cBut most of the time hiding stuff from them doesn\u2019t work, and so explaining to them how they feel, why that\u2019s happening, giving them other viewpoints as to why they might be feeling the way like they are, sometimes helps give them a bigger picture and they can relax more into it, rather than being really anxious about what you\u2019re hiding from them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tPrincess Kate Middleton and Prince William have opened up about their parenthood journey on multiple occasions while raising Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The Prince and Princess of Wales wed in April 2011 at Westminster Abbey. Kate announced in December of the following year that she was pregnant with their first child. George [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Prince of Wales added, \u201cThere can be a lot more questions than answers. It\u2019s always a balancing act, every parent knows that. It\u2019s about how much do I say? There\u2019s no manual for being a parent; you\u2019ve just got to go with it. It\u2019s a bit of instinct.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kate, also 43, announced in March 2024 that she had started chemotherapy<\/a> after being diagnosed with an undisclosed type of cancer. By that September, she had completed her treatment. Kate announced this past January that she was officially in remission.<\/p>\n

William further discussed his parenting duties during the same interview in Brazil. He noted that Kate does most of the heavy lifting.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlaydates, taxi driver, sports days, matches, playing in the garden when I can,\u201d he said. \u201cSchool run most days. I mean, Catherine and I share it, but she probably does the bulk of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

William chatted more about allowing their kids to have phones \u2014 which he first discussed in an interview last month.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is really hard. Our children don\u2019t have phones,\u201d William added. \u201cWhen George moves onto secondary school, maybe he\u2019ll have one with limited access. We talk to him and explain why we don\u2019t think it\u2019s right.\u201d<\/p>\n

William\u2019s fear with giving \u201cfull access\u201d is the kids \u201cseeing things on the internet that they shouldn\u2019t.\u201d However, he and Kate are looking into \u201crestricted access\u201d for their 12-year-old son.<\/p>\n
