Brittihovi’s most popular member said that the cancer was discovered during surgery on the large stomach area. The princess’s absence from the public eye had set off a wild rumor mill.
LONDON Princess of Wales Catherine told the nation in a video that he has cancer. The announcement will put an end to the rumor mill that has been spinning wildly for months, in which it was speculated why Princess Catherine has not been seen in public since last Christmas.
– The past few months have been very difficult for our family, 42-year-old Catherine says. In the video, he is sitting on a park bench surrounded by spring grass and daffodils. He calmly tells about his situation. The British broadcasting company BBC filmed the video on Wednesday.
Catherine said the cancer was discovered during major abdominal surgery in January.
– At that time, my condition was not believed to be caused by cancer. The operation went well, but the tests after it found cancer cells, says Catherine.
Doctors recommended preventive chemotherapy. The treatment is now in the initial stages. According to Catherine, the information was a surprise.
– This was a huge shock. William and I have done everything we can to go through this privately for the sake of our young family, says Catherine.
Hovi has not said what kind of cancer it is, but it assures that Catherine will recover from it.
– I’ll be fine. I’m doing well and I’m getting stronger every day, the princess says in her statement.
The British media and social media have increasingly demanded information from the court about the princess’s situation in recent weeks. According to the court, Princess Catherine wanted time to process her diagnosis and begin treatment before making her health public.
The Princess of Wales says in the video that recovering from extensive surgery and starting cancer treatments have taken time. She thanks her husband Prince William for his support. According to him, the most important thing has been to spend time explaining the illness to the couple’s children in a way that suits them. He also thanks his doctors and the people for their support.
Catherine optimistically said she is now focusing on a full recovery and hopes the nation will give the family time and peace.
The video was released tonight. Tieto has also shocked the nation. In the messaging service X, Catherine’s video has already been viewed 16 million times in the first hour.
Prime minister Rishi Sunak slammed the media for unfair treatment of Catherine in recent months and called the princess brave. Sunak said Catherine needs privacy now.
King Charles announced in January that he has cancer. He was being treated at the same hospital at the same time as Catherine, but Catherine’s condition was not disclosed. The silence of the court and the photos published by the Princess of Wales on social media started the rumor mill. Numerous conspiracy theories spread around the world about the princess’s health and family relationships.
The princess and prince were seen on video walking near their home at a country food market in Windsor last weekend. Many did not believe this to be true either, instead it was claimed that there was a surrogate in the picture.
