Kate Middleton announces she has cancer, undergoing chemotherapy treatment

Princess Kate Middleton announced she's been diagnosed with cancer in a video message. The Princess of Wales, 42, has been undergoing preventative chemotherapy treatment after a planned abdominal surgery showed 'cancer had been present.' Kate did not elaborate on the form or extent of the cancer in her video. Middleton gave the update on her health Friday after undergoing major surgery earlier this year.

message from Catherine, The Princess of Wales pic.twitter.com/5LQT1qGarK— The Prince and Princess of Wales March 22, 2024 'It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family, but I’ve had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I am so grateful.' The Princess of Wales explained that after her abdominal surgery, it was believed her condition was 'non-cancerous.' However, further testing showed 'cancer had been present.

Kensington Palace confirmed to Fox News Digital on Thursday that Middleton had been working from home during her recovery. She was being kept up to date regarding the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood's trial of an observation tool for child development. The Princess of Wales has remained out of the public eye since Dec. 25. Buckingham Palace later revealed Middleton had been admitted to a hospital for a planned abdominal surgery on Jan. 17.

On Mother's Day in the U.K., Middleton shared a photo featuring her three children with Prince William – Prince George, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte. The picture quickly became news as it was likely intended to quell speculation about the princess. However, Middleton's photo only fueled speculation about her health and whereabouts when it came to light that the image had been altered.
