Breaking her silence, the Princess of Wales made a startling announcement regarding her health condition. In a heartfelt video statement produced by BBC Studios, Kate disclosed that she is in the early stages of treatment for cancer. Despite initial tests showing no signs of cancer during abdominal surgery in January, subsequent examinations revealed its presence. Consequently, her medical team recommended preventive chemotherapy, which she commenced in late February.

In addition to coping with her diagnosis, Kate emphasized the importance of privacy and space for her family, particularly as they navigate the complexities of explaining the situation to their children - George, Charlotte, and Louis. She expressed gratitude for the outpouring of love and support from well-wishers, acknowledging that William's unwavering presence has been a tremendous source of comfort throughout this challenging time.
”In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.”
