Hey there, friends. If you’ve been following the news, you might’ve heard that Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, recently gave a heartfelt update on her cancer treatment. She also shared that she’s preparing to ease back into her royal duties. This comes three months after she first announced her diagnosis, and it’s a significant moment for her and her family. Let’s dive deeper into what she had to say.
Kate Shares Her Heartfelt Journey on Social Media
On June 14, Kate took to Instagram to share an emotional post with her followers. In her caption, she expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support she’s received during this challenging time. She said, “I have been blown away by all the kind messages of support and encouragement over the last couple of months. It truly has made the world of difference to William and me and has helped us both through some of the harder times.”
She went on to describe her experience with chemotherapy, acknowledging the ups and downs that come with it. “There are good days and bad days. On those bad days, you feel weak, tired, and you have to give in to your body’s need for rest. But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well,” she explained. This candid insight gives us a glimpse into her daily struggles and triumphs.

Stepping Back Into Royal Duties
Kate continued by sharing her plans to gradually return to her royal responsibilities. She wrote, “My treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months. On the days I feel well enough, it is a joy to engage with school life, spend personal time on the things that give me energy and positivity, as well as starting to do a little work from home.” It’s clear that she’s taking it one step at a time, balancing her health with her duties.
One of her first public appearances since her diagnosis will be at King Charles’ Birthday Parade on June 15. She expressed hope to join more public engagements over the summer but wisely added, “I hope to join a few public engagements over the summer, but equally knowing I am not out of the woods yet.” This cautious optimism shows her determination and realism about her situation.
A Message of Gratitude and Reflection
Kate concluded her post by thanking her supporters for their continued understanding. She wrote, “I am learning how to be patient, especially with uncertainty. Taking each day as it comes, listening to my body, and allowing myself to take this much-needed time to heal.” Her words remind us of the importance of self-care and patience during tough times.
For months, the royal family faced rumors and speculation after Kate underwent surgery in January. Despite the operation being successful, her absence from public life fueled theories about her health. However, she put those rumors to rest on March 22 when she revealed her cancer diagnosis during a procedure. She explained, “This of course came as a huge shock, and Prince William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family. It has taken time to recover from major surgery and start my treatment, but most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte, and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be OK.”
