After weeks of rumors and speculation about Kate Middleton’s health, the Princess of Wales reappeared this Friday, March 22, on her social networks to announce that she had been diagnosed with cancer and that she was already receiving “preventive” chemotherapy.
”In January I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time my condition was thought to be non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. However, subsequent tests discovered that there was cancer. Therefore, my medical team recommended that I should undergo preventive chemotherapy treatment and I am now in the early stages of that treatment,’ he confessed in a video published by Kensington Palace.
This serious illness has been a hard blow for the entire royal family, who for several weeks have been trying to process the new reality they are going to have to face. ”This, of course, was a great shock and William and I have been doing everything possible to process and manage this privately, for the good of our young family,” stressed the wife of the heir prince to the throne.
Furthermore, the couple wanted to handle this delicate moment with the utmost discretion for the good of their children. ”As you can imagine, this has taken a while. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery to begin my treatment. But the most important thing is that it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis, in a way that is appropriate for them and assure them that I am going to be okay,’ she acknowledged.
Despite everything, the Princess of Wales wanted to thank the support she has been receiving all these weeks and also wanted to send a message of optimism. ”I’m doing well and I’m getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that would help me heal, in my mind, body and spirit. Having William 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 expressed.
Since the statement has seen the light, many faces close to the Princess of Wales have wanted to show her all their support, such as her father-in-law, King Charles III, or her brother. But the message that no one expected and that has caused a lot of stir has been that of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. ”We wish health and healing for Kate and her family, and hope they can do so privately and in peace,” CNN journalist Max Foster revealed in his X profile.
