The Princess of Wales spoke about her diagnosis and treatment in a video released on Friday.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle released a statement supporting their sister-in-law after Kate Middleton publicly shared her cancer diagnosis with the world on Friday.
“We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace,” the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said in a statement shared with HuffPost.
In a video shared by Kensington Palace on Friday, the Princess of Wales spoke about her health struggles over the last few months.
“In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was noncancerous,” Kate said.
“The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present,” she explained. “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.”
