Kate Middleton Says Her Cancer Is in Remission

Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, announced Tuesday that her cancer is in remission, nearly a year after she publicly revealed her diagnosis. 

“It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focussed on recovery,” she said in a post on X on Jan. 14.  [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”]

Middleton first shared her cancer diagnosis in March 2024, saying that she began treatment in late February and was undergoing what she called “preventative” chemotherapy. Middleton and the royal family have not announced what type of cancer or what stage she had.

In her post about remission, she thanked those who had supported her family during the almost year-long journey. “My heartfelt thanks goes to all those who have quietly walked alongside William and me as we have navigated everything,” she said. “We couldn’t have asked for more. The care and advice we have received throughout my time as a patient has been exceptional.”

Middleton recently visited the hospital where she was treated, where she spoke with staff and patients. 

In September, the Princess shared that she had completed chemotherapy and was focused on staying “cancer free.”

“As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal,” Middleton wrote Tuesday. “I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead.”
