What’s next for Kate Middleton, Prince William and their kids after cancer diagnosis
As Kate, the Princess of Wales, undergoes treatment for cancer after revealing her diagnosis publicly last week, the public is learning more details about the impact of that diagnosis and the support she is receiving.
Kate, 42, is understood to have had lunch privately with her father-in-law, King Charles III, last Thursday, the day before Kensington Palace released a video of Kate sharing a personally written message announcing her cancer diagnosis.
In January, Kate and Charles, 75, overlapped in hospital stays at the London Clinic, where Kate underwent abdominal surgery and Charles underwent a procedure to treat an enlarged prostate. In the days and weeks after their respective procedures, both Kate and Charles were diagnosed with cancer.
Neither of the royals has shared the type of cancer with which they were diagnosed, but both are currently undergoing treatment.
Kate said in her video message that she had started preventative chemotherapy, while Charles has also started “a schedule of regular treatments,” according to Buckingham Palace, which has not said what type of treatment Charles is receiving.
Charles has mostly stepped back from his public duties during his treatment but has made a few public appearances, including on Tuesday, when he met with community faith leaders at Buckingham Palace.
Kate asked for privacy for her family in her message announcing her diagnosis, and Kensington Palace has said only that she will return to public duties once she is medically cleared to do so.
Kate, her husband Prince William and their three children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, are spending time at Anmer Hall, their country estate in Norfolk, England
traditional Easter service at St. George’s Chapel, William, Kate and their children will not attend.
Prior to Kate’s announcement of her cancer diagnosis, royal watchers had suspected that Kate could make her return to public duties at the Easter service. The princess’s last royal engagement was on Christmas Day, when she joined family members walking to church in Sandringham
