Prince William is marking his 44th birthday alongside Father’s Day celebrations in the UK. Multiple outlets report that the Wales family and Kensington Palace share a birthday message featuring William and his children. The Princess of Wales and the couple’s children send a tribute calling him “the best papa in the world.” Several sources say the family posts a recent photograph of William with their daughter, Princess Charlotte, as part of the combined Father’s Day and birthday observance. Sky News and BBC News describe the message as coming from William’s wife and children, while other outlets repeat that Kensington Palace publishes the image to mark the occasion. The reports align on the key details: William’s age, that Father’s Day coincides with his birthday, and that the family’s message uses the “best papa” wording. Overall, the coverage focuses on the family’s public greeting rather than any additional events or controversies.
