Prince William provided an update on Kate Middleton’s health this week, revealing that she is “getting better” after being diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. The Duke of Cambridge shared this news while meeting with World War II veterans in Portsmouth, England, to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
Kate Middleton, who has been undergoing chemotherapy since late February, announced her cancer diagnosis in March after undergoing abdominal surgery in January. The specific type of cancer has not been disclosed, and she has remained out of the public eye since the announcement.
Prince William also briefly stepped back from his public duties following Kate’s diagnosis but has since returned to work. He recently filled in for his father, King Charles III, who was also diagnosed with cancer this year. Charles did not attend the international commemorative ceremony at Omaha Beach due to health reasons, with a royal source emphasizing the need to prioritize his recovery.
While both Kate and Charles continue to undergo treatment, they have been gradually resuming their public duties. The palace has not disclosed the specific type of cancer Charles is battling or the details of his treatment. Despite these health challenges, the royal family remains committed to fulfilling their official responsibilities and supporting each other during this difficult time.
