The Princess of Wales marked her return to work with a meeting for a cause near and dear to her heart.
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s back to work she goes!
Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, made a quiet return to work this week, almost six months after she revealed to the world she had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy treatment.
The princess met with her Centre for Early Childhood staff and employees of Kensington Palace on Tuesday, The Telegraph reports.
The meeting was confirmed in the Court Circular — the official record of royal engagements — and is only the third time Middleton has been mentioned in the records since stepping away from public duties earlier this year due to her cancer diagnosis, according to ITV.
The project examines “how experiences in early childhood are often the root cause of today’s hardest social challenges such as addiction, family breakdown, poor mental health, suicide and homelessness,” per the Royal Family’s official site.
On Sept. 9, Middleton shared a video to social media, announcing she had completed chemo and would begin a slow return to work in the coming months.
In the intimate video, which gave a behind-the-scenes look at her family enjoying time in nature and playing cards with her parents, she called this year “incredibly tough” and said she still has a long road to go. However, she said it’s a “relief” to be finished this part of her treatment.
