Royal Revelation: Kate Middleton Opens Up About Cancer Battle After Heartfelt Meeting with King Charles

Before Kate Middleton delivered a moving message to the world about her cancer diagnosis, King Charles met with his “beloved daughter-in-law”, the Princess of Wales, on Thursday in London. The meeting took place as Kate sought insight into the King’s battles with cancer.

The royal duo shared a major heart-to-heart and an “emotional” private lunch before the Princess of Wales made a bombshell announcement regarding her cancer diagnosis, as reported by the Mirror.

“It is highly unusual for just the two of them to sit down together like this. The King had already been made aware that the woman he calls ‘my beloved daughter-in-law’ had cancer. They would have had lots to discuss and share because just weeks earlier the King had begun his course of treatment and dealt with announcing his diagnosis,” a source from Windsor Castle told The Mirror.

The source added that the King left the lunch feeling very emotional, as they share a close bond, with King Charles considering Kate as his own daughter. “There is no doubt there is a lot they can share and can use each other for support during their own deeply personal cancer battles.”

Meanwhile, Kate and Prince William have taken several weeks off from royal duties to spend more time with their three children: George, Charlotte, and Louis. However, Prince William is expected to resume his royal responsibilities following the Easter break.

Kate Middleton Discloses Her Cancer Diagnosis

On Friday, Kate broke her silence amid widespread speculation about her health, revealing that she is battling cancer and undergoing chemotherapy.

In January, she was hospitalized at the London Clinic for over two weeks after undergoing major abdominal surgery.

Speaking boldly of “an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire home”, the mother of three described the difficult moment when she and William considered disclosing the news to their children.

While Kate did not disclose the specific type of cancer she is battling, she informed that she started the course of “preventive chemotherapy” in February. According to Kensington Palace, Kate maintains a “positive mindset for her recovery” and is currently in “good spirits”. She reassured her children that she was “well and getting stronger every day”.

Meanwhile, it has been reported that the Princess of Wales wrote the touching statement to the nation on her own in a very short period, aiming to strike the correct tone of comfort for concerned royal supporters.

Citing a Royal Family friend, the Sunday Times reported that Kate penned the speech “very quickly”, opting for a video message over a written statement for added reassurance.
