In a rare public show of appreciation, the prince praises his grandmother.
It's no secret that Prince William has proven himself a
loving husband to Kate and doting father to George and
Charlotte. But now he's gone one step further and added
"incredible grandson" to that list.
When given the chance to write the preface for a new
biography, Elizabeth II: The Steadfast, The Duke of
Cambridge didn't just deliver — he honored Queen
Elizabeth with a sweet yet rare public appreciation of both her reign and her role in their family.
"The Queen's kindness and sense of humor, her innate
sense of calm and perspective, and her love of family
and home are all attributes I experience first-hand," he
writes. "All of us who will inherit the legacy of my grandmother's reign and generation need to do all we can to celebrate and learn from her story. Speaking for myself, I am privileged to have the Queen as a model for a life of service to the public."
He also took a moment to pay tribute to his grandfather,
"who has devoted his life to supporting her."
Kensington Palace tweeted an image of the sweet note in its entirety, which you can read below.
