This is a fact that has long worried England. Last January, Kensington Palace announced that Kate Middleton had undergone abdominal surgery and that her operation required several weeks of convalescence and that she would not return until Easter. But while all the excitement could have stopped there, the situation took a more serious turn on Sunday March 10, 2024. For Mother’s Day, Kate Middleton posted a photo of herself accompanied by her three children, George, Louis and Charlotte. The most seasoned Internet users have noticed that certain elements had been retouched. A controversy which forced the princess to speak out and apologize publicly: “Like many amateur photographers, I occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to apologize for any confusion that the family photo we shared yesterday may have caused. I hope everyone present has had a very happy Mother’s Day.” Apologies which had not calmed the fire.
The mystery solved
Recently, our colleagues from The Sun revealed a video of Kate Middleton and William at the Windsor Farm Shop. Some people said they were lookalikes. Faced with all this media turmoil, Kate Middleton broke the silence through a video posted on Kensington’s Instagram account on Friday March 22, 2024. In it, she revealed that she had cancer, without specifying the cause. nature. “I’m doing well, and I’m getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal […] It was an incredibly difficult two months for the whole family, but I had a fantastic medical team who took great care of me. It was of course a huge shock.. William and I did everything we could to handle this privately, for the sake of our young family. As you can imagine, it took a while.”
And the announcement of his illness also made it possible to lift the veil on several questions, in particular due to William’s absences from certain events. Indeed, last February, the prince worried the British people after canceling his appearance at a ceremony in memory of his godfather, King Constantine of Greece. The palace had indicated that it was for reasons “personal”, without saying more. According to information from The Sun revealed on Saturday March 23, 2024, this absence was indeed linked to his wife’s cancer. It was Camilla who welcomed the royal guests to St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle for this ceremony.
