Kate Middleton shared a new photo on Prince William's birthday.
Of course, people loved seeing William let loose a little, especially since he's dealing with his wife and father undergoing cancer treatments.

Prince William has been a 'devoted husband' to Kate Middleton during this time period, an expert said.
During this tough time period, William has really stepped up to the plate.
"William could not have been a more devoted husband than he has been to Kate," Christopher Andersen told Fox News Digital. "Thatās ever more evident in the way that he has stepped up to reassure the children and, at the same time, take up some of his fatherās duties while Kate is undergoing chemotherapy."
"Kateās public statements about her cancer battle have been nothing less than stunning in their graciousness and insight," Andersen shared. "William recognizes that."

Kate Middleton recently made an appearance at Trooping the Colour.
According to the expert, William has been responsible for tackling these tough subjects with his children.
"William also realizes that he is the only one who has to reassure the children that this is just a rough patch and their mother will get through it ā not to mention their grandfather, who the children know is also suffering from cancer," Andersen explained.
"George, Charlotte and Louis are also very close to their grandfather the king, and people often forget that," Andersen continued. "Itās up to William to make sure that not only are they reassured about their motherās situation, but also their beloved grandfatherās. So much is on Williamās shoulders as he turns 42. It really is rather staggering."
