The disclosure came after royal officials said in February that King Charles III was being treated for cancer, forcing him to cancel all public engagements. But she described the months since she went into hospital as"incredibly tough" for her, William and their three young children. She said it had taken them time to explain the situation to Prince George, aged 10, Princess Charlotte, eight, and five-year-old Prince Louis,"and to reassure them that I am going to be OK".
Kensington Palace announced on January 17 that she was facing up to two weeks in hospital and several months' recuperation following abdominal surgery.
