“Prince Harry has reached out to his brother, Prince William, after learning of Kate’s cancer,” Shipp posted on X. “Harry and Meghan have both been in touch with their brother/sister-in-law, but did so privately. It [is] not clear if that was a phone/video call or some messages of support.”
Prior to Kate’s video message on Friday, there was speculation about her health. She had abdominal surgery in January and wasn’t seen for months
In her video message, Middleton shared, “In January I underwent major abdominal surgery in London. At the time, it was thought that my condition was noncancerous. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.” Read her full statement
