She added: “My heartfelt thanks goes to all those who have quietly walked alongside William and me as we have navigated everything.” Kate continued: “We couldn’t have asked for more. The care and advice we have received throughout my time as a patient has been exceptional.” Naturally, Kate’s news generated wholesome and supportive responses from fellow social media users.
One tweeted, soon after she uploaded her message: “the best news!” Someone else commented: “Wonderful news indeed! So pleased for the whole family.” An additional fan added: “Princess Kate’s remission shows the power of early diagnosis and care.” One other noted: “I’m glad she’s in remission, The Royal Marsden provided her and all its patients great care.”
Kate conveyed her aspiration that, in her role as a co-patron of Royal Marsden, "by supporting groundbreaking research and clinical excellence, as well as promoting patient and family wellbeing, we might save many more lives, and transform the experience of all those impacted by cancer." She also shared: "It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focused on recovery."
The future queen (who is married to Prince William) also expressed: "As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead. There is much to look forward to. Thank you to everyone for your continued support."
In March 2024, Kate (who shares Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6, with her husband William, 42) revealed that she was receiving treatment for a type of cancer she chose not to specify. She stayed out of the public eye for most of the year to prioritize her recovery. By September 2024, she announced that she had finished her chemotherapy sessions.
Earlier this week, Kate openly discussed her health journey during her visit to the hospital, marking her first solo appearance since late 2023. The Daily Mail reported that Kate emphasized the significance of self-care. She explained: "I really felt like I needed to get the sun. You need loads of water and loads of sunlight."
