The news of Kate's cancer diagnosis stunned the nation, as she bravely made a stoic announcement in a video. However, many were left wondering why her husband, Prince William, was not by her side during such a difficult time. After weeks of speculation and concern, the reason has finally been revealed.
It turns out that the decision for Kate to share her journey with cancer alone was a personal one. In an interview with People magazine, a source close to the royal family explained that Kate wanted to deliver the news herself and in her own way. "It was a message from the princess about her health, and she wanted to personally deliver the message on her own," the source shared.
Meanwhile, Prince William has been a pillar of support for his wife behind the scenes. He is extremely proud of her courage and strength, not just during this week of her announcement, but since her surgery back in January. The source also revealed that William is now more determined than ever to ensure that Kate has the privacy she needs to fully recover, and that their children are shielded from the inevitable interest in the news.
It was important for Kate and William to take their time in processing the news and telling their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. They waited until the children were on their Easter holidays before making the announcement public. The couple has always been fiercely protective of their young family and wanted to handle the situation with care.
Kate's abdominal surgery in January, which happened around the same time as King Charles was also undergoing treatment at the London Clinic, was initially thought to be for a non-cancerous condition. However, biopsy results showed that cancer was present, and the royal family was left reeling from the news. In her address to the nation, Kate expressed her gratitude for her medical team and the successful surgery, but also shared the devastating news that she now needs to undergo preventative chemotherapy.
"It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family," Kate said. "But I've had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I am so grateful." She went on to explain that the surgery was initially thought to be non-cancerous, but subsequent tests showed that cancer was present. Now, she is in the early stages of treatment and remains hopeful for a full recovery. The couple has asked for privacy during this difficult time, as they focus on Kate's health and their family's well-being.
