Kensington Palace released a video announcement of the Princess of Wales’ cancer treatment prematurely after a leak of her diagnosis, according to the Daily Mail. In the video message dated March 22, Kate Middleton disclosed her cancer diagnosis and mentioned she is undergoing ‘preventative chemotherapy.’
The release timing was influenced not by her absence from Easter church services but because of a leak about her health condition.An insider indicated that the Palace was compelled to act swiftly to stay ahead of the narrative. The source of the leak, whether from The London Clinic where she had surgery in January or another source, remains uncertain, a Daily Mail report said.
In a heartfelt video, the Princess, aged 42, shared the ‘huge shock’ of her cancer diagnosis following abdominal surgery and the challenging times her family has faced. While the specific type of cancer was not disclosed, she started ‘preventative chemotherapy’ in late February. Describing herself as ‘well and getting stronger every day,’ she maintains a positive outlook toward recovery.
Prince William and Kate have taken careful steps to inform their children about her health condition sensitively. The King, also battling cancer since February, has expressed pride in the Princess’s courage for publicly discussing her treatment. Queen Camilla recently highlighted the public’s supportive response towards the Princess.
