Catherine, Princess of Wales, announced that she is undergoing chemotherapy in a video shared to the public on March 22. In a video shared on the Prince and Princess of Wales' official social media accounts, Kate appears to be sitting outside on a bench as she discloses her diagnosis. In her announcement, the 42-year-old said the last couple of months that have been 'incredibly tough,' revealing that she has been undergoing preventative chemotherapy.
My medical team, therefore, advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and I’m now in the early stages of that treatment. This, of course, came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family. As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment.
