During the interview, Prince William opened up on becoming overwhelmed at times last year as Princess Kate and King Charles were both diagnosed with cancer.
Buckingham Palace announced that King Charles had been diagnosed with cancer in February 2024.
A month later, the Princess of Wales revealed her own cancer diagnosis in an emotional video message to the world.
Prince William told Mr Levy: “You know, worry or stress around the family side of things that does overwhelm me quite a bit.

“But in terms of, you know, doing the job and things like that, I don’t feel too overwhelmed by that.
“Not now anyway, when I was younger, yeah, there are bits that overwhelm you, a bit like ‘wow are we actually doing this? Is this sort of happening?’ but with time and age, I think you feel a bit more settled in that side of things and you go, actually I can do that.
“And even if a few curve balls come in, that doesn’t necessarily overwhelm me.
The Prince of Wales added: “When it’s to do with family and things like that, then that’s where I start getting a bit overwhelmed - as I think most people would, because it’s more personal, it’s more about feeling, it’s more about upsetting the rhythm, if you like.”

Princess Kate announced in January 2025 that she was in remission, while King Charles is continuing to receive treatment for his cancer.
During the episode, Prince William reiterated that 2024 was the hardest year of his life.
The Prince of Wales said: “I’d say 2024 was the hardest year that I’ve ever had...I enjoy my job, but sometimes there are aspects of it such as the media, the speculation, you know the scrutiny, that make it a little bit harder than other jobs.
“It’s just making sure that doesn’t overtake and intrude into areas at times when you just want a bit of space, and a bit of peace and quiet.”
