Kate Middleton shared news of her cancer diagnosis through a heartfelt video message back in March. Fortunately, there's some positive news amidst her battle. According to a family friend speaking to Vanity Fair on Tuesday, the Duchess of Cambridge has "turned a corner" in her medical treatment since making her illness public. It's a relief to hear that she's responding well to the medication and is overall improving.
Despite the challenges faced by Buckingham Palace during this time, Kate's immediate family and her husband Prince William have been a source of strength, rallying around her during this difficult period.
The 42-year-old princess revealed her cancer diagnosis earlier this year and disclosed that she's undergoing chemotherapy. While she didn't specify the type of cancer she's battling, she mentioned in her video message that it's in its "early stages."
Recent reports from a source cited by the Daily Beast suggest that Kate doesn't plan on undertaking any royal duties for the remainder of the year. Right now, her focus is on prioritizing her health and well-being, steering clear of stress and anxiety as she concentrates on her recovery.
As for the summer plans, the couple intends to spend it at Anmer Hall, along with their three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. It's essential for them to have this time together, nurturing and supporting one another through Kate's treatment journey.
