Tonight, the Princess of Wales shared in a heartfelt video message that at the age of 42, she has received a cancer diagnosis and is currently undergoing preventative chemotherapy. Filmed at Windsor on Wednesday, Catherine expressed the immense shock of this news, emphasizing that she and William have been diligently navigating this situation privately, prioritizing their young family’s well-being.
Seated amidst daffodils and blossoming spring trees, she spoke earnestly, «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. As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to 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.»
«As I have said to them; I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirits. Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance, too. As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both.»
During her January abdominal surgery, Kensington Palace initially stated it was non-cancerous. They reiterated tonight that no tests had indicated cancer. However, subsequent post-operative tests revealed its presence. This evening’s revelation will undoubtedly reverberate globally, following weeks of speculation and unfounded conjecture about her health. It presents a new challenge for the British Royal Family, coinciding with King Charles’s own cancer battle.
The princess is currently following a recovery plan, having begun chemotherapy in late February. Consequently, Prince William withdrew from a memorial service honoring his late godfather, King Constantine of Greece. Kensington Palace has emphasized against speculation regarding the type of cancer.
In her video statement, the Princess appeared casually attired in a striped Breton top paired with jeans. She said: «I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you, personally, for all the wonderful messages of support and for your understanding whilst I have 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.»
«In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and, at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.»
«We hope that you will understand that, as a family, we now need some time, space and privacy while I complete my treatment. My work has always brought me a deep sense of joy and I look forward to being back when I am able, but for now I must focus on making a full recovery.»
Even amid her personal turmoil, she had a message of hope for others battling cancer. She went on, saying, «At this time, I am also thinking of all those whose lives have been affected by cancer. For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose faith or hope. You are not alone.»
We extend our well-wishes for a swift recovery to Catherine, Princess of Wales. Recently, the princess was seen in public for the first time since her surgery, accompanied by her mother. View her photo here.

Catwoman of our times: what a woman with an unusual appearance looked like before plastic surgery
When we hear the phrase “Catwoman”, we imagine that very attractive comic book heroine. But today we decided to talk about another woman, who is also called that.
Jocelyn Wildenstein was born in 1940 in Switzerland. As many of her acquaintances say, the girl had an incredibly attractive appearance: blond hair, big eyes and sophisticated facial features.
Due to this appearance, she often enjoyed success with men.
All her life, Jocelyn was looking for a status gentleman for herself. So she decided to try to find one in Paris.
The girl managed to find an interesting man who worked in the field of cinema.
Over time, he introduced his girlfriend to many people from this area, and she completely immersed herself in the world of glamour. Jocelyn suddenly wanted to change something in herself, despite the fact that she was a real beauty.
From that moment, her journey of transformation began.
When it comes to such changes, everyone immediately understands that it will not do without the intervention of a plastic surgeon.
It all started with the most ordinary braces, which were not supposed to change the girl much. But it frequently happens that the body is not going to accept such an intervention, so Jocelyn’s appearance has changed dramatically.
In order to somehow get out of this situation, our heroine began to position herself as a new Catwoman. She was not going to cause any admiration for her new look, and in fact no one was going to do this.
In the future, each attempt by Jocelyn to correct herself only aggravated the situation. Now she herself realizes that she did a great stupidity.
Today’s plastic has taken several steps forward in development, but this story is an example. Therefore, before taking such a step, think not 7 times, but all 100.
