'Late Show' host Stephen Colbert expresses remorse for making light of Kate Middleton and Prince William before learning that the princess of Wales has cancer.
Stephen Colbert got serious Monday night on 'The Late Show' while reflecting on his recent jokes about Catherine, Princess of Wales, in light of her recent cancer diagnosis. The CBS host recognized that his pre-disclosure barbs didn't sit well with some viewers, and the 10-time Emmy winner explained that, in retrospect, they also did not adhere to his own comedy standards. 'I don't know if you have noticed but we do a lot of shows.
'But regardless of what it is, I know that any cancer diagnosis of any kind is harrowing for the patient and for their family,' he said, adding, 'Though I'm sure they don't need it from me, I and everyone here at 'The Late Show' would like to extend our well wishes and heartfelt hope that her recovery is swift and thorough.
