Kate Middleton on Fear and Fatigue After Cancer

For World Cancer Day, Kate Middleton posted a heartfelt video with a personal message to those affected by the disease, according to reports.

The short video includes footage from her visit to the Royal Marsden hospital in Chelsea in January 2025. It was at this world-renowned centre that she had previously undergone treatment. Her remission was announced after that visit.

In the voiceover, the princess said: «On World Cancer Day, my thoughts are with everyone who has been diagnosed, is undergoing treatment, or is finding their way to recovery. Cancer affects so many lives — not only patients, but families, friends, and those who care for them.»

She acknowledged the difficulty of recovery. «As anyone who has been through this journey knows, it is not linear,» she continued. «There are moments of fear and exhaustion. But also moments of strength, kindness, and deep connection.» Closing with words of support, she added: «This day reminds us of the importance of care, understanding, and hope. Please know, you are not alone.»

Kate Middleton announced she was undergoing treatment for cancer in March 2024, temporarily stepping back from public duties. In September 2024, she said she had finished chemotherapy. On the same day, she and Prince William became joint patrons of the NHS Trust of the Royal Marsden.

In January 2025, after announcing her remission, the princess released a video as part of her «Mother Nature» series about the restorative power of the natural world. «This series has been a deeply personal creative reflection on how nature helped me heal,» she wrote at the time. «But it is also a story about the power of nature and creativity in collective healing.»
