Catherine, Princess of Wales, stuns public with cancer diagnosis
Story from Abubakar KADO
In a shocking revelation, Catherine, Princess of Wales, also known as Kate, disclosed on Friday that she has been diagnosed with cancer and is currently in the early stages of treatment.
The 42-year-old princess shared this unexpected news through a video statement released on social media, emphasizing how her cancer diagnosis has taken her by surprise.
Just two months prior, Catherine had temporarily withdrawn from public life following what was described by Kensington Palace as surgery for a non-cancerous abdominal condition. Reflecting on her recent health journey, she revealed, “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.”
Throughout her announcement, Kate expressed her gratitude for the unwavering support of her husband, Prince William, and highlighted their efforts to maintain privacy for the sake of their children – George, Charlotte, and Louis. She acknowledged the emotional toll of processing the news with her family and the significance of reassuring her young children that she will be alright, focusing on healing in mind, body, and spirit.
As the royal family navigates this trying time, Kate stressed the importance of privacy and requested understanding from the public while she focuses on her recovery. Despite needing to step back from her royal duties temporarily, the princess conveyed her anticipation of returning to her work once she has made a full recovery, along with a heartfelt message of solidarity for all those impacted by cancer.
