PRINCE WILLIAM PROMISES TO ‘LOOK AFTER’ WIFE AMID CANCER DIAGNOSIS
Doting husband, Prince William made his return to royal work with his first public engagement since the news of Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, on Thursday 18 April. A volunteer at a food distribution charity Surplus to Supper in Sunbury-on-Thames handed him cards for his wife and father, King Charles amid both their cancer treatments.
Buckingham Palace revealed King Charles had cancer in February.
“During the King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,” according to a statement by Buckingham Palace.
“His Majesty has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer,” the palace continued.
Princess Kate revealed her cancer diagnosis in March in an emotional video shared on Twitter. She expressed that she went in for major abdominal surgery and later found out that cancer was present. The Princess of Wales revealed that she would be undergoing chemotherapy.
“In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful,” she said.
“However, 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,” she continued.
Kate and Prince William have three children together – Prince George (10), Princess Charlotte (8) and Prince Louis (5).
