He temporarily stopped for a moment on the way back to the holiday hut, William and Kate stood to enjoy the scenic view.
They wrap their arms around each other, William tends to give his wife a kiss while looking at the beautiful island of Mall in western Scotland.

They could not have appeared happier in the image issued to celebrate the fourteenth anniversary of their marriage last month – which is okay, given the “terrible” year that they passed in 2024, during which Kate faced abdominal surgery, followed by the diagnosis of cancer and treatment.
From the courageous video message she recorded between narcissus last spring to announce her cancer, to the joyful family video at the end of last summer when she finished chemotherapy, and the predecessor of heartfelt in January 2025 to say that she was in forgiveness, Kate managed to stay at a state of alert to think about the difficulty of the family.
She said last year: “Life, as you know, can change in a moment, and we had to find a way to move in stormy waters and the road is unknown.”
But the evaluation of her explicit husband is that this was “probably the most difficult year in my life” that tells his own story, given the shock he faced since her childhood with a close collapse of his parents' marriage and then the death of his mother.
So, how did the three mother manage to stay through everything with her family?
In the heart of this is a princess of Wales, which may be a surprise to some.
Kate may, sometimes, may look like a fragile flower, but former Miss Middleton Miss is made of difficult things.
Although she endured the greater burden of physical surgery and chemotherapy, she remained a porch, positive and always, Liem, 42 years old, and their children George, 11, Charlotte, 10, Louis, seven, first.
This does not mean that it came through the cancer journey safely.
A close friend says: “Last spring and early summer, things were very difficult. Catherine was very sick and William had to face the possibility of losing his wife and father [who has also been battling cancer].
“Preserving things is as normal as possible for” children “, as Catherine calls them, was very important. Her mother was in particular the strength and support tower.”
As the princess herself said, nature and the natural world were the key to her return to physical health and mental stability.
In a post on social media to celebrate Mother's Day, she wrote: “During the past year, nature was a haven.”
A visit with the scouts also worked to the beautiful wilderness in the lake in March to confirm this issue.
Kate, 43, always loved gardening, and any outdoor activity-whether sailing, skiing, tennis, walking, hockey, shower in forests, running or cycling-was for him.
In Anmer Hall in Norfolk, the princess went to walk and swim in the sea as she rebuilt her mental and physical strength during and after her treatment of cancer.
King Charles shared with her a passion for living in wild mushroom feed, and they supported each other because both of them moved on their cancer trips.
She said that her illness gave her a new perspective – a “very spiritual and intense emotional redemption” with the outside world.
It is the personal revelation you are now in the heart of her return to public life.
What is really interesting in this new trend is the princess now willingness to participate in herself.
The princess did not return to work. It puts the family first while still young.
Always intensively a special person, we rarely heard from Kate about her feeling or what she was thinking about. Now, we are doing, and you want to use a deep personal shock to help others.
“The princess herself has spoken in the past 13 months of the strength that nature has played in her recovery,” said a source in the palace.
“This is definitely a message to each of her private life and her general work to move forward.”
From the Wales Community Park in February, to a visit in the Beheira region with the scouts as their president, its general associations were held in almost recently in the open air – commensurate with its jobs on social media during the past year.
The princess did not return to work – conscious of her time as a queen approaching, and thus she wants to put her family's direct unity first while they are still young.
This has been proven by its decision to break the traditions of Easter this year.
During the years, Wales charged the forces to the Church of St. George, before lunch at Buckingham Palace with the king and the queen.

However, this year they spent Easter in Norfolk countryside with Middletons, where they attended the church separately to serve in Sandrinhham real estate and leaving across the rear door, despite a small crowd formed in the hope of receiving them.
With the youngest, Lewis, now seven years old, and the siblings of the two sheikhs are heading to their cuddles, Wales's focus focuses firmly on maintaining a strong family unit.
The values of paternity and motherhood are similar, because William has always admired the way his mother, Carroll and Mike, a happy and collaborator family (unlike his broken childhood).
While he was at St. Andrews University, Kate's parents welcomed him as a second son during the academic holidays.
Middleton's method is a lot of sport, external activities, love, mutual respect and a lot of family time.
Wales children are expected to set the table, wash and arrange their rooms.
They are unlikely to have a lot of screen time, not to mention phones, because their father may have talked out strongly about the dangers of social media and large technology.
Kate's passion – and tremendous knowledge – means early childhood patterns, that George, Charlotte and Louis had the most possible “natural” childhood – if the royal childhood could be normal at all.
Official photos are shared on birthdays and other important dates at times, as William and Kate admits public attention to their children, but they hold their privacy strongly.
Catherine has always put a great deal of pressure on herself, but she is now more tolerant.
School options are looming to Prince George, where he will move to high school next September at the age of 13.
Gordonstoun in Scotland was traditional Royals, but not for the triple Wales.
Etone College, which his father attended is the first candidate, but it is understood that Kate would like to keep all three children together, so the ancient Marlbo College of Welshire can be the preferred option.
What was also clear is that Catherine is now ready to be more relaxed in how she appeared in public places.
The way you communicated directly, and from the heart, it has definitely changed.

When she and her husband were only sitting when they were outside the camera, William is now more relaxed in public places.
The explicit household videos showed last September, announcing that the princess has successfully completed her chemical treatment, and unprecedented intimate moments, including kissing for the couple, lying alongside the beach and that Kate rests her head on the shoulder of William while they were adopting.
In Scotland earlier this month, they were more by touching, and happy with laughter with others and on each other.
During a visit to renew the community hall, which was paid by their royal institution, the princess assembled her less skillful husband to join a flower on a mural, and congratulated him on rubbing the back with her head tending to his shoulder.
When someone admired her skill with a nail gun, and revealed that she had a Christmas saw, one of the contestants shouted: “What could she not do?” William gave a theatrical sigh and proudly confessed: “This always happens.”
Although Kate has always looked at herself as the support law of Lilim, the general reaction and the widespread support for her during her illness, and the affection that is kept shows how important the longevity and its success in ownership.
However, her illness made her realize that the family is everything, and it must always come first.
“Some people who have a life change experience make them realize that they do not have all the time in the world,” says Robert Jobson, royal photographer Robert Jobson.
“Catherine has always been a great deal of pressure on herself, but she is now more tolerant, and does not force herself to be the best all the time.
“General participation, tour or project must be fine for her – to suit her – instead of doing something for appearance or just because it is ownership.
“It is important for her to determine the priorities herself, whether it may go to the gym or tennis playing. The reason for this transformation is partially cancer and partly because it is more comfortable in its role.”
More than ever, William and Catherine have shown how they would do things on their way – rewriting the royal bases book to support and celebrate their constant love and happy family after the most difficult years.
