Britain's Prince William will carry out his first official engagement since his father, King Charles, was diagnosed with cancer and his wife, Kate Middleton, underwent surgery.

William, 41, will perform an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle after temporarily stepping back from his royal role three weeks ago to juggle caring for his wife and their children following Kate’s operation.
