Princess of Wales announces cancer diagnosis
This after tests taken following major abdominal surgery in January revealed cancer had been present.
However, in a video message, Kate said subsequent tests had revealed cancer had been found, but she said she was well and getting stronger. Her office, Kensington Palace, said it would give no further details about the type of cancer. It said she was on a recovery pathway and the preventative chemotherapy had begun in February.
Kate has not appeared at a public event since she joined other members of the royal family for a church service on Christmas Day."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.
"As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment.
