Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, underwent major abdominal surgery in January 2024, initially thought to be non-cancerous.[1] However, post-operative examinations revealed the presence of cancer, so her medical team recommended preventive chemotherapy.[1][5] It is in the early stages of this treatment.[1][5] The diagnosis was a big shock for her, and the last months were extremely difficult for the family.[1][4] The princess recently announced that she is in remission after completing chemotherapy.[2][3] She stated that this is a relief, but she is still focused on making a full recovery and adjusting to her new reality.[2][3] Remission does not mean a complete cure, but great progress in the fight against cancer.[2][3]
