What cancer does Kate Middleton have? Kensington Palace declined to say more

Kate Middleton has just announced that she has cancer in a video posted on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram page. Posing calmly, surrounded by greenery, she revealed that she is “undergoing preventive chemotherapy” and is “in the early stages of this treatment”. Remember, at the time of his hospitalization for an officially scheduled “abdominal operation” at a London clinic on January 16, several British media outlets assured him that it was “not cancer.”

If transparency is expected from the royal family for two months about Kate Middleton’s health condition, which has been very mysterious until now, then the Kensington Palace intends to keep silent about the details related to her cancer. “We will not release any other private medical information,” a palace spokesman said, declining to give details about the stage of the cancer affecting the princess. However, he notes that “the princess is now recovering after starting preventive chemotherapy”, and to be more precise, this chemotherapy started “at the end of February”.

These elements complete a speech by the princess, who confirmed in images broadcast earlier in the evening that her condition was “not thought to be cancerous” at the time of “major abdominal surgery in London”. In a statement from Buckingham Palace, released an hour after Kate’s speech was published, King Charles III said he was proud of his daughter-in-law’s bravery.

Since her hospitalization in a London clinic on January 16, the wildest speculations have emerged about the general state of health of Prince William’s wife. For the first time on January 16, the Windsors and their inner circle showed transparency that is sure to put everyone at ease. The transparency has already started since Sunday March 17, and the appearance of the Princess of Wales, also in the video, next to her husband in the shop in Windsor.
