- Kate Middleton Poses With Outstretched Arms on World Cancer Day in Photo Snapped by Prince Louis (newsbreak.com)
Local princess, Kate Middleton, marked World Cancer Day with a striking new photograph taken by her youngest son, Prince Louis. The photo shows the Princess of Wales standing on a tree stump with her arms outstretched, dressed warmly against the UK winter chill.
The caption reads, “Don’t forget to nurture all that which lies beyond the disease.” A second image, a close-up of frost-covered leaves, carried the same message.
This uplifting post comes just weeks after the princess confirmed her cancer is in remission. In a previous social media post, she expressed gratitude for the support she and Prince William received, highlighting the exceptional care she received during treatment.
Kate also made a surprise visit to the hospital where she underwent chemotherapy. She spoke of her new role as Joint Patron of The Royal Marsden and her hopes of supporting research and patient wellbeing. She acknowledged the time it takes to adjust after a cancer diagnosis and expressed relief at being in remission, focusing on her continued recovery.
The princess first announced her cancer diagnosis in March 2024, following abdominal surgery earlier that year. She largely remained out of the public eye during treatment, reappearing for a few select events.
By September 2024, Kate announced the completion of her chemotherapy treatments, acknowledging the challenging period for her family. She emphasized her ongoing journey toward full recovery.
