Princess Kate Makes Exciting Announcement

Catherine, Princess of Wales, announced Tuesday, January 14, that her cancer is in remission, during an emotional visit to The Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she received treatment over the past year.

Making the announcement on social media following her hospital visit, Kate expressed her emotions about reaching this milestone. “It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focussed on recovery,” she wrote, adding, “As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal.”

The princess had initially disclosed her cancer diagnosis last March after undergoing abdominal surgery, revealing she was undergoing preventative chemotherapy. She completed her chemotherapy treatment in September 2024. Neither Kate nor the palace has specified the type of cancer or how far it had progressed.

During Tuesday’s visit, Kate shared candid reflections about her experience with other patients. “It’s really tough,” she said, describing her initial reaction to the diagnosis. “It’s such a shock.”

In a particularly touching moment, Kate discussed the chemotherapy port used to deliver her treatment, with patient Katherine Field. “I got so attached to it,” she shared, even joking about her reluctance to have it removed.

She took time to acknowledge the support she and her husband received throughout her treatment journey, saying that they couldn’t have asked for better care.

In conjunction with her visit, Kensington Palace announced that both Kate and William have become patrons of The Royal Marsden Hospital, a world-leading cancer center with three sites in London. William has served as the hospital’s president since 2007, a position previously held by his mother, Princess Diana.

Kate spent time during her visit speaking with other patients, doctors, and nurses. She emphasized the challenges of processing a cancer diagnosis, noting the uncertainty, and the challenge of the amount of information one must digest.

The palace has indicated that Kate will continue to return to public-facing engagements gradually as she focuses on her recovery. Throughout her treatment, she maintained some public appearances, including attending the men’s final at Wimbledon and hosting the annual Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey.

Looking toward the future, Kate expressed her commitment to supporting cancer research and patient care. She said she hopes to contribute to promoting patient and family well-being, saving lives, and improving the experience of people impacted by cancer.
