In recent weeks, one of the most talked about topics in the world of the gossip press and social networks was the secrecy that was generated around the British royal family after the abdominal surgery that Kate Middleton underwent. It was earlier this year when it was announced that the Princess of Wales would remain in recovery, and since then, a host of theories have circulated about her whereabouts. This Friday, it was Kate herself who reappeared in a video shared by Kensington Palace in which she announced that she suffers from cancer. This news has generated a real stir in the world media, but especially the British ones.
The Princess of Wales, 42, said in the video that she is on an early "path to recovery" after beginning treatment at the end of February. Middleton revealed that the news had been a "huge shock" and that she and Prince William "have been doing everything they can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family." Kate's cancer was discovered during post-operative tests after she underwent "major abdominal surgery" at The London Clinic on January 17.
"As I've told you, I'm doing well and I'm getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal, in my mind, body and spirit. Having Guillermo by my side is also a great source of comfort and peace of mind. Just like the love, support and kindness that many of you have shown. It means a lot to both of us," Middleton explained, looking at the camera after the controversy over her retirement.
On the other hand, Kensington Palace assured that it will not share details about what type of cancer the princess has or what stage of cancer she is in and has asked not to speculate. "We hope you understand that as a family we now need some time, space and privacy while I complete my treatment. My job has always brought me a deep sense of joy and I hope to return when I can, but for now I must focus on making a full recovery." , asked the princess.
As expected, the news has generated a true media earthquake worldwide. Kate also became a trend this Friday on social networks, such as on X (formerly Twitter). However, if there is one place where the news has fallen like a bucket of cold water, it has been in the British media. This Saturday, all the covers have dawned with Kate Middleton as the protagonist.
Some of the most important media outlets in the country have wanted to show their support for the princess. "Kate, you are not alone," can be read on the cover of The Sun, while some of the royal's statements are included in the video shared this Friday. On the other hand, the Daily Express and Telegraph highlight on their front pages the statements with which Kate assured that "cancer came as a very big shock."
The Daily Mail, The Independent and The Times, for their part, highlight the phrase in which Middleton assured that "I'm going to be fine." For its part, The Guardian highlights that the princess "is receiving chemotherapy treatment." All of these media open their covers with the image of the Princess of Wales sitting on the bench where she announced that she suffers from the disease. The news has been a real blow to the British, who hope that Kate can recover soon.
