Prince George Cries: “My Heart Hurts So Much, I Miss My Grandpa, But It Is With Great Sadness That I Have to Announce That He Has…” In a heart-wrenching moment that has captivated the nation and beyond, Prince George, the eldest son of Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales, tearfully addressed the world to announce the heartbreaking loss of his beloved grandfather, Prince Charles. The young prince, only 9 years old, spoke with an emotional weight far beyond his years, revealing his deep sorrow at the death of the monarch. “My heart hurts so much,” Prince George began, his voice trembling with emotion as he looked directly into the camera. “I miss my grandpa so much. He was always there to make me laugh, to show me how to be kind, and to teach me about our family. I loved spending time with him, and now, it feels like a big part of me is gone.” The announcement was made through a statement shared by Kensington Palace, where Prince George has been living with his parents and younger siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. As the grandson of King Charles III, George had a unique bond with his grandfather, who had been a loving figure in his life. Many royal fans have often seen photos of Prince George and King Charles together, with the latter showing a tender affection toward his eldest grandchild. “It is with great sadness that I have to announce that my grandpa has passed away,” Prince George continued, his small frame visibly shaking with emotion.
“He was my grandpa, but he was also a great king. He worked very hard for all of us, and we are so proud of him. Even though I miss him so much, I know he is with my grandmother now, and I know he’s happy up there.” King Charles III passed away suddenly, leaving the royal family—and the entire nation—grieving the loss of a beloved father, grandfather, and monarch. His death followed a long period of declining health, although no one expected it to come so soon. The news of his passing has been met with an outpouring of grief from citizens around the world, and tributes have flooded in from leaders, dignitaries, and ordinary people alike. Prince George’s statement marks an incredibly personal moment for the royal family.
As the future king, his grief represents a future burden, but also the deep love and affection that connects the family to one another. While George is too young to fully grasp the weight of his role in the monarchy, his emotional reflection on his grandfather speaks to the tenderness of their relationship. “My mummy and daddy tell me that grandpa will always be with us in our hearts,” George said softly. “And that makes me feel a little bit better, but I will still miss him.” The royal family has asked for privacy as they navigate this period of mourning. As preparations for the state funeral begin, the family is expected to mourn in their own private ways, leaning on one another for support. In this deeply sad time, the entire nation stands with Prince George and the royal family as they say goodbye to a man who served with dignity and love, and whose legacy will undoubtedly live on in the hearts of his grandchildren and all those who loved him.
