When news first broke that the Princess of Wales was battling cancer, I immediately began to think about her young family. Raising three children, including a future king, in the public eye cannot be easy. One thing has become clear in the days since her moving video message: Catherine is a queen in the making, and her strength and stoic approach to life are ones I know will become vital assets to a successful monarchy one day. I believe it is safe to say we all know someone afflicted by cancer, and Catherine’s diagnosis should be used as a timely reminder to hold your loved ones tight, never take life for granted, look after your health, and of course remain vigilant about check-ups where possible, if not for yourself, then…
If the world needed any more confirmation of the Princess of Wales’ “great strength”, then it came in the form of the two-minute video message she wrote and released on March 22, bravely revealing she is battling cancer after it was discovered following her admittance to hospital for major abdominal surgery in January. PERSONAL DECISION In the powerful video message, filmed as the 42-year-old sat on a wooden bench bathed in spring sunshine, Catherine spoke of the “incredibly tough couple of months” that her family had experienced and how her diagnosis had come as a “huge shock”, but reassured that she is undergoing preventative chemotherapy and is “going to be OK”.

Just hours before releasing to the world her emotional video explaining she had cancer, Catherine, Princess of Wales, travelled from London to Windsor Castle for an “emotional” private lunch with her father-in-law. It’s believed Kate was determined to speak to King Charles ahead of her bombshell health revelation so she could check on how the 75-year-old was doing amid his own cancer battle, reports The Sun. It is known that Charles, whose own cancer diagnosis was announced by Buckingham Palace in February, already knew about Kate’s health status ahead of the news being released. But a Windsor insider notes the meeting was nevertheless unprecedented and speaks volumes to the close and supportive relationship between the senior royals. “It is highly unusual for just the two of them to sit down…
In a move that royal experts have described as a sign the Duke and Duchess of Sussex “cannot be trusted”, the estranged royal couple are said to have discovered Kate’s cancer diagnosis via breaking television reports, much like the rest of the world. “It is understood that Kate’s cancer diagnosis was not shared in advance with Harry and Meghan,” The Times reported, after the Princess of Wales revealed she’s undergoing preventative chemotherapy. “Several sources confirm that there were no such conversations and it is thought Harry found out about Kate’s diagnosis from television.” A royal insider confesses to Woman’s Day that the ongoing complications between the Wales family and the Sussexes will be put “out of sight and out of mind” while Kate focuses on her recovery. “William has placed…
She’s the little girl from Scotland who inspired the world with her courageous fight to beat leukaemia, and in the process captured Kate’s heart and forged a beautiful friendship with the princess. Mila Sneddon was just four years old when she was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in 2019, and endured more than 900 procedures before going into remission two years ago. When her mum Lynda, 40, posted a heartbreaking image on Facebook of Mila kissing her dad Scott, 54, through a window during the pandemic lockdown in the UK, it went viral and was included in an exhibition launched by Kate. The little girl was separated from her dad for months during her treatment after Scott and Lynda took the difficult decision to live in separate households a week…
