Kate Middleton has been diagnosed with cancer and is currently going through the initial phase of chemotherapy, the Princess of Wales mentioned in a bombshell announcement on Friday.
The 42-year-old leading Royal Family member learned about her cancer diagnosis after undergoing a sudden and serious abdominal surgery. While the procedure was declared successful, doctors at the London Clinic soon found cancer cells in the same region. However, the Palace has yet to confirm which type and stage of cancer she is suffering from.
The message was very personal and deeply unprecedented, not to mention filled with all sorts of emotions.
Kate found it so difficult to speak, adding how she and her loved ones were still in a state of shock. Nevertheless, both the Prince and Princess of Wales are doing everything possible to manage the matter privately for the sake of their young kids.
The heartbreaking video message statement has left royal fans in tears and devastated after seeing the Princess appear in the video today. This is especially true as Kate struggled to speak while her voice cracked in many segments of the video message.
The future Queen still put up a brave face and reassured the general public that she would be back after a period of healing and that she was doing okay.
The tabloids have been coming up with all sorts of conspiracy theories related to her sudden and mysterious disappearance from the public eye.
Even the private clinic where the surgery took place was under fire recently after rumors about medical staff viewing her private medical records took center stage, fueling more speculations about her health condition.
The Palace had previously confirmed how an official statement describing her health in detail would be released but the world was not prepared for this.
Now that this video has appeared, royal fans are no longer in suspicion. Many hope this will put all rumors to rest while others wish and pray for a period of peaceful healing as the Princess is determined to fight the disease until the end.
For now, Kate is still in her healing period after the major surgical procedure on her abdomen. She is undergoing the early stages of preventive chemotherapy as advised by her medical team.
