Royal fans and new parents alike have taken to Twitter to sympathise with Prince William after a video was released that appeared to show the dad-of-three struggling to stay awake during the Anzac Day service in London. The Prince attended the service just two days after welcoming his third child with his wife, Kate, and appeared to drift off to sleep while sat with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Discussing how tiring it must be to be a new dad, one person tweeted: "Poor Prince William! Every parent knows that feeling of overwhelming exhaustion. Unfortunately, William has cameras capturing his unsuccessful fight to stay awake!
Prince William couldn't keep his eyes open
Another person wrote: "Why would people make a big deal about Prince Williams falling asleep? He’s a dad and an overall great person. Putting him in public because he’s tired and falling asleep is ridiculous! At least it shows that he’s doing his job being a husband and a father of three." A third person joked: "I literally feel his struggle here. I've been there hundreds of times & I have never even had a newborn," while another suggested that Meghan should have given him a nudge!
