During a recent charity visit, Prince William opened up about his personal experiences with grief, including the death of his mother, Princess Diana.

Prince William said he found it extremely difficult to focus on school and normal life as he opened up about his childhood grief. The Prince of Wales, 42, this week paid a visit to Child Bereavement UK — a children’s bereavement charity in Widnes, England, of which he is a patron.

"Sometimes the hardest thing about grief is finding the words for how you actually feel," the Prince of Wales admitted

After chatting with William, 16-year-old Clayton described the prince as "a genuine person, very down to earth," noting, "Obviously, he's been through the same situation as a lot of people so you can see when he does say he's glad of what we're doing, it's important because he knows what it's like for others."
