The Princess of Wales has remained remarkably calm throughout her cancer treatment, even as others describe 2024 as one of the toughest years for both Kate and Prince William. A new report suggests that Kate may consider stepping away from her full-time royal duties altogether.
According to the source, Kate Middleton might not return to her full-time role in the royal family. She is expected to reassess her responsibilities and the extent of her duties after completing her cancer treatment. While Catherine is undergoing chemotherapy and is acutely aware of her royal role, her priorities have undeniably shifted.
Upon her return to public life, the Princess of Wales plans to focus on her patronages, though her schedule might be more limited. The source indicated that we may not see a regular series of engagements, and any absences may not be met with significant drama.
Despite potential changes to her role following her diagnosis, Kate remains a central figure within the royal family. Jenny Bond, commenting on Kate’s future as Queen, noted that thriving in the royal family requires resilience. "You have to be pretty tough to survive and thrive in the royal family," Bond told the publication. She believes that Kate has the confidence needed to assume the role of future Queen, regardless of how the monarchy evolves in the coming years.
Whether or not Kate returns to her full-time royal duties, fans are eager to welcome her back and support her in any capacity she chooses to embrace.
