Here’s what we know so far about Kate’s cancer diagnosis
Few details expected: Kate, 42, who is married to the heir to the British throne, Prince William, did not say what type of cancer she had been diagnosed with and Kensington Palace is not expected to reveal any further medical details, such as what stage the cancer is in.
Abdominal surgery: The announcement comes two months after Kate had stepped away from public life temporarily following what Kensington Palace said at the time was surgery for a non-cancerous abdominal condition. She remained in a London hospital for 13 days following the procedure. Kate was spotted in public last weekend for the first time since January, visiting a farm shop with her husband.
Preventative chemotherapy: The princess started preventative chemotherapy in late February, a royal source told CNN. She had been expected to return to official duties after Easter. However, she will now postpone further work until she has been cleared by her medical team, the source said.
Reactions: The news prompted a wave of sympathy and support from public figures around the world, including Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, King Charles, Prince Harry and Meghan, the head of England’s National Health Service, Kate’s brother James Middleton, French President Emmanuel Macron, as well as the White House and US first lady Jill Biden.
King Charles also has cancer: Kate’s diagnosis is a devastating blow for the British monarchy as King Charles III is currently undergoing treatment for an unspecified cancer, which was announced in early February.
How to tell children: In the time Kate spent away from the public before revealing her cancer diagnosis, one of her biggest priorities was finding the right way to tell her children, she said. CNN understands the royal couple wanted to wait for their young children to be out of school for the Easter vacation before making an announcement. When talking to young people about a parent’s cancer diagnosis, experts advise taking the child’s age into account. Read more for tips on how to talk to kids about cancer diagnoses.
