The battles on D-Day of June 6, 1944, and in the weeks that followed, pushed the German forces back from the coast and across France and were among the most important in bringing about the end of the Second World War, which ended almost a year later.

As well as being alongside international heads of state, William will join D-Day veterans and attend the the Canadian commemorative ceremony at the Juno Beach Centre, Courseulles-sur-Mer, hosted by the Canadian government, Buckingham Palace has announced.

William expected to travel to France solo, as his wife Kate Middleton, 42, is still not undertaking public duties as she undergoes her cancer treatment.

Then, under the blinding studio lights, he finally spoke — and his words were too sharp, too restless, too undeniable to ignore.No script. No filter. No protection. Just one calm, cold warning — and within seconds, the control room froze. It was a moment too raw, too humiliating, exposing a heartbreaking truth no one at the networks wanted to confront.

This morning, grief turned into something almost unbearable. Erika Kirk, her voice trembling, unveiled a private video never meant for the public. On the screen, Charlie Kirk appeared — smiling, laughing, cradling his little girl in his arms. His laughter filled the frame, his embrace so protective, so alive… and yet, everyone watching knew: this was a warmth the world would never feel again. For Erika, the decision to share it was not about politics. It was about love, about memory, about making sure their daughter grows up knowing her father’s touch, his laugh, his presence. Within minutes, the video spread nationwide. Families watched and wept. Strangers admitted they couldn’t finish it without breaking down. What began as a family’s private treasure had become a nation’s collective farewell.
