The Princess of Wales has announced tonight that she has been diagnosed with cancer aged 42 and is undergoing 'preventative' chemotherapy.

In a deeply emotional video message, filmed at Windsor on Wednesday, Catherine revealed the news had come as a 'huge shock' and that she and William 'have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family'.

It came days after she was seen smiling with Prince William as they left their favourite farm shop close to their Windsor home.

Praying for the princess.

[McGavin999]

I’ll join that prayer.

[Jonty30]

Pray for her, for sure. I’m glad that she and King Charles is comparatively ok.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Yeah, but more importantly she photoshopped a family picture!

That is far worse than cancer!

</sarcasm>

Kensington Palace has said it will not be sharing details of what kind of cancer the princess has, or what stage of cancer it is and has asked people not to speculate.

Good luck with that. Best to Kate for her health and recovery.

[Jamestown1630]

Yes.

i’m sorry to hear this ( and I am sorry she could not have privacy)

God Bless her, I hope she beats it. Some years back my sister in law was diagnosed with breast cancer. They cut it out, she underwent chemotherapy and radiation, and she’s currently in remission.

I lost a niece in January, she was diagnosed with “neuro-endocrine” cancer and it took her father quickly.

Sad to hear it.

[telescope115]

It took her RATHER quickly….

[Sarah Barracuda]

Prayers for Kate..I figured it was cancer, maybe colon/stomach, just praying she will be alright she seems like a really nice lady, raising a good family, hoping for the best

and just like that everybody believes the media, as if it never lied to them.

[alstewartfan]

Seems like a good woman.

[Reno89519]

So. I feel for her, but that’s not US news, not our concern. Bet she’s getting better treatment than her family’s subjects.

[MeganC]

I agree. So what if she tweaked a picture? Everyone does it including the media.

[week 71]

Personally, I wish they would take the billions given to Ukraine and give it towards cancer research.

[desertsolitaire]

Best to her indeed and we can probably rule out prostate cancer.
What, too soon?

[Luke21]

Delightful woman. May God be with her.

[Ann Archy]

BIDEN SAID HE WAS GOING TO CURE CANCER !

[cowboyusa]

Thanks for once again proving to theforum what a jack ass you are.

[McGruff]

That’s terrible news. Maybe the press will leave her alone now.
