Fans worldwide are rallying behind the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, following her courageous revelation of cancer diagnosis.
In a touching video, Kate opened up about her battle with cancer and ongoing chemotherapy treatment.
She revealed that she underwent major abdominal surgery in London in January, initially believing her condition was non-cancerous.
However, post-surgery tests indicated that she had cancer, prompting her medical team to recommend chemotherapy.
“This, of course, came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family,” she added.

The princess also expressed her need for privacy as she undergoes treatment. She also expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support and understanding from well-wishers during this challenging time.
“I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you personally for all the wonderful messages of support and for your understanding while I’ve been recovering from surgery.
“It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family, but I’ve had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I am so grateful.”
Wrapping up her statement, Kate said she will be taking some time off from her royal duties until she is able to return.
“At this time, I’m also thinking of all those whose lives are being affected by cancer. For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose hope,” she concluded.
