Catherine, the Princess of Wales, revealed in a social media post on Tuesday that her cancer is in remission about ten months after she first announced her diagnosis.

London

Catherine, the Princess of Wales, has shared that her cancer is now in remission. The announcement was made during her first public engagement of the year, where she visited the cancer hospital where she had received her treatment. Catherine expressed gratitude towards the medical staff and spent time with patients at the hospital. She later took to social media to confirm that she is cancer-free, expressing relief at being in remission but acknowledging the ongoing journey of recovery.

The Princess of Wales has highlighted the importance of adjusting to a "new normal" following the experience of a cancer diagnosis. The palace has not disclosed specific details about the type or stage of cancer Catherine had been dealing with, which was initially discovered during an abdominal surgery a year ago. Her successful surgery and subsequent treatments were completed in the past summer. Catherine’s positive news comes amidst her resilience and dedication to focusing on her recovery and family.

Additionally, this provides a hopeful moment for the royal family, which is also dealing with King Charles's recent cancer diagnosis. Catherine's remission offers some respite amidst the challenging times for the family, as confirmed by Roya Nika, royal editor at the Sunday Times.



Catherine, Princess of Wales, announces her cancer in remission

In her first royal outing of the year, the Princess of Wales visited the very same cancer hospital she received her own cancer treatment. Kate thanked the medical staff and sat with cancer patients. Later revealing on social media she is now cancer free. It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focused on recovery, she said. As anyone who has ever experienced a cancer diagnosis will know it takes time to adjust to a new normal. Roya Nika is the royal editor at the Sunday Times newspaper. I think that phrase new normal is really significant. She is looking at life before cancer and after cancer and it's about what's really important to her and phasing her return and prioritising family and time to recover. The surgery was successful however tests after the operation found cancer had been present. Kate's cancer was first detected a year ago after she was admitted to hospital for an abdominal surgery. She completed her treatments last summer but the palace has never confirmed the type of cancer she had or how far it had progressed. The princess's remission will lift a major cloud from over the royal family which is still coping with King Charles's cancer diagnosis announced just days after Kate's.
