The mystery surrounding the figure of Kate Middleton continues to be one of the most striking topics of international news. Since Kensington Palace announced in mid-January that the Princess of Wales had undergone an abdominal operation, the news related to the state of health of Prince William’s wife has not stopped.

After weeks of uncertainty, this Friday, March 22, Kensington Palace unexpectedly published a video of Kate Middleton in which she announced that she had been diagnosed with cancer at the age of 42. According to what she says in the video, she was already receiving “preventive” chemotherapy.

Despite the hard blow that her diagnosis has been for the entire family, the Princess of Wales was optimistic about her treatment. ”As I’ve told you, I’m doing well and I’m getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal, in my mind, body and spirit. Having Guillermo by my side is also a great source of comfort and peace of mind. As has the love, support and kindness that many of you have shown. “It means a lot to both of us,” she said.

In addition, Kensington Palace also wanted to confirm that no details will be given about the type of cancer the princess suffers from or the stage it is in, and they have asked that no speculation be made about her state of health.

With the confirmation of his health problem, the British royal family has put an end to the numerous speculations and conspiracy theories that have emerged over the weeks. Furthermore, his public reappearance has been earlier than expected, since many media outlets had been speculating for weeks that his return was going to take place either in mid-April, as was initially speculated, or on March 31, Easter Sunday, coinciding with with the traditional mass in St. George’s Chapel, which Kate Middleton will not attend for obvious reasons.
