In a statement from Buckingham Palace, King Charles III expressed his immense pride in Princess Catherine’s courage as she faces her cancer diagnosis.
The monarch, currently undergoing his own cancer treatment, remains closely connected with his daughter-in-law during this challenging time.
Catherine’s bravery shone through as she shared her diagnosis, describing it as a “huge shock” in a video released recently.
Since late February, she has been undergoing preventative chemotherapy, navigating what she called an “incredibly tough couple of months” for her family.
Despite the ordeal, she remains optimistic, stating that she is “well and getting stronger every day.”
This news follows a period of personal health challenges for the royal family. Just six weeks ago, King Charles put his public appearances on hold due to his own cancer diagnosis.

Catherine’s brother, James Middleton, also expressed solidarity, promising to support her through this journey.

Opposition leader Sir Keir Starmer echoed these sentiments, highlighting Catherine’s optimism and message of faith and hope amid public scrutiny.
International leaders, including US President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron, joined millions around the world in praying for Catherine’s swift recovery, acknowledging her strength and resilience.
In her video statement, Catherine revealed that cancer was discovered following abdominal surgery earlier this year, necessitating preventative chemotherapy.
She urged others facing similar challenges not to lose faith or hope, emphasizing that they are not alone in their struggle.
