Shortly after it was revealed that the British monarch had cancer, Princess Catherine announced in a video statement on March 22 that she was fighting cancer.
“I had major abdominal surgery in London in January and was not diagnosed with cancer at the time. The surgery was successful, but tests carried out after the surgery revealed cancer.
Therefore, my medical team advised me to undergo preventive chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of this treatment.
It took some time for me to recover from the major surgery, which was also necessary to start treatment. The Duchess admitted that explaining everything to Giorgio, Sarolta and Lagos was a very big challenge, and reassured them that I would be fine.
Although an insider revealed that Catalin will definitely not appear for a while, as she is currently receiving preventive chemotherapy, she is still leaving her home. Many people claim to have seen the Duchess doing business with her family alone, but no photos have been taken of that, so it's unknown whether she actually showed up in town or if it's all just an unfounded rumour.
A few days ago, Prince William visited the hospital on the Isles of Scilly, where he also shared some news about his wife. According to her, Catalin is already better, but the treatments weaken her a lot – common the people.
It will no longer be shown this year
As the Duchess said, she needs to withdraw from the public eye and focus on her recovery alongside her family, which is why she does not appear in public.
Princess Katalin's calendar for this year is empty.
This means that by 2024, they will no longer organize programs for her, and she will not be busy with public appearances, meaning that Princess Katalin’s return is expected only in 2025,” a close acquaintance told The Daily Beast.
He added that it was also possible that the Duchess would share another video message about her current health on her social media site, just as she announced that she had cancer. However, this will likely have to wait until the July election, as the royal family has decided to postpone their official duties and visits – as per usual procedure.
