Kate Middleton, Britain’s Princess of Wales, on Monday said that she has completed her chemotherapy treatment. The Britain’s Princess of Wales had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing a course of preventative chemotherapy.

Her official Instagram posted a note with the caption – Message from Catherine, The Princess of Wales. 

“As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment. The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown.  The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you,” her post read.




“With humility, it also brings you face to face with your own vulnerabilities in a way you have never considered before, and with that, a new perspective on everything. This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved. Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes,” it added.

Few more public engagements in the coming months: Middleton  

As Middleton is gaining her sound health back, she said she was however looking forward to being back at work and would undertake a few more public engagements in the coming months when she could.

 

“Despite all that has gone before I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life. William and I are so grateful for the support we have received and have drawn great strength from all those who are helping us at this time. Everyone’s kindness, empathy and compassion has been truly humbling. To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey – I remain with you, side by side, hand in hand. Out of darkness, can come light so let that light shine bright,” said Middleton.

Kate Middleton battles cancer

Earlier in March 2022, Middleton revealed that she has been diagnosed with cancer. The revelation from the 42-year-old royal after a “tough couple of months” came after weeks of speculation over her health and recovery. 

In a personal video message released by Kensington Palace, a weak looking Kate said her planned “major” abdominal surgery in January was “successful” and it was initially thought her condition was non-cancerous.

“Tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment,” Princess Kate had said in her video message.
