Kate Middleton Announces She Is Done With Chemotherapy Treatment

Kate Middleton reveals that she has successfully finished her chemotherapy treatment in a sweet video that was shared online.

The good news comes after it was reported that she was considering attending the Remembrance Sunday ceremony in November.

The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, had been working from home, staying engaged with her royal duties, and planning future events, including her December carol concert.

Taking to her X (formerly Twitter) account, Kate shared the great news with her fans, who have been supporting her since it was revealed that she was diagnosed with cancer.

"I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have completed my chemo treatment,” Kate said in the video, which featured the Walses having a family stroll.

"The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate stormy waters and world unknown," she stated in the caption of the video.

Kate continued, "The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you. 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."

The Sunday Times had previously reported that Kate was considering making a public appearance, with hopes of joining her husband William, King Charles, and other members of the royal family at the annual Remembrance Sunday ceremony in November at the Cenotaph memorial in Whitehall, London.

The occasion, which honors fallen service members, is a prominent fixture on the royal calendar, and if she does attend, it would mark a notable public return for the Princess of Wales.

However, there are currently no confirmed dates for Kate’s resumption of royal duties, and she is not scheduled to join Prince William for the Earthshot Prize awards in Cape Town in early November.

The publication also mentioned that preparations have begun for Kate’s annual holiday carol concert in December, an event she has hosted for the last three years.

Throughout her cancer treatment this summer, Kate has remained active in her royal duties from home at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor.

She has regularly met with her private secretary, Tom White, assistant private secretary, Natalie Burrows, and the Waleses’ communications secretary, Lee Thompson, to stay informed on her initiatives and plan for the future.

In June, Kate noted that while she has “good days,” chemotherapy inevitably brings challenges. Despite this, as she expressed in a March video announcing her diagnosis, her work continues to provide her with "a deep sense of joy."

On Friday, September 6, Kate hinted at her enthusiasm to resume her duties when the time allows. Buckingham Palace also shared a message from the Princess, congratulating adventurer and TV host Dwayne Fields on his appointment as Chief Scout of Scouts UK. Kate expressed her excitement, writing, "Looking forward to working with you!" She signed the message with a simple "'C.”

Kate began chemotherapy in February after undergoing abdominal surgery in January. She announced her cancer diagnosis in March and has kept a low profile since. In June, she released a touching statement alongside a portrait of her in Windsor. She also made a rare appearance at the Trooping the Colour parade in honor of the King.

In July, feeling well, Kate attended Wimbledon with her daughter, Princess Charlotte, and sister, Pippa Middleton. She and William also recorded a video in August to support athletes at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

While no date has been set for her return to full public duties, those close to the palace emphasize the importance of Kate not feeling pressured, stating: “It’s good not to feel under pressure and just take her time and have slow days if she needs to.”

Kate Middleton And Prince William Focus On Family

During her treatment, Kate and William have valued time with their children—Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6—over the summer.

The family spent much of their break at Anmer Hall in Norfolk before the kids returned to Lambrook School on September 4. They also visited Balmoral Castle in Scotland to spend time with King Charles and other family members.

A close friend shared with the publication that William has focused on family throughout Kate's illness, stating: "For William, family comes first," adding that both he and Kate have been making efforts to maintain normalcy for their children.

Meanwhile, William resumed royal duties after the summer break on September 5. On September 10, he will visit Llanelli in west Wales to meet schoolchildren, air ambulance crews, and the national women’s rugby team. Two days later, on September 12, he will represent Charles at the Sovereign’s Parade at the Royal Air Force College in Cranwell, Lincolnshire, where international officer cadets from Jordan, Kenya, Pakistan, and Uganda will participate.
