The Princess of Wales' announcement comes on the same day she visited with cancer patients at the same hospital where she was treated for cancer.
Kate Middleton has confirmed her cancer is in remission, using a post on social media to share the good news and thank the staff who cared for her while she underwent treatment.
In a message posted to Instagram on Tuesday, the Princess of Wales shared that there is “much to look forward to.”
“It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focused on recovery,” the 43-year-old royal wrote.
“As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead,” she continued.
“There is much to look forward to. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.”
The post follows Middleton’s Tuesday visit to The Royal Marsden Hospital, the facility where she received treatment after her diagnosis.
“I wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you to The Royal Marsden for looking after me so well during the past year,” she wrote in her post, paying tribute to the “exceptional” care she received during her diagnosis, saying she “couldn’t have asked for more.”
She announced she will now take on a role as a joint patron of The Royal Marsden and hopes to “save many more lives” by “supporting groundbreaking research and clinical excellence, as well as promoting patient and family wellbeing.”
