Terrible news for her family and her. Mother of 3 children

ruthless disease

JP Liz V1

The Royals are having it tough

Hoping she recovers fully as 3 young kids

I'm speculating is it ovarian, could have had hysterectomy?

screamer

i just think it's disgusting that poor woman had to divulge that. i dont care about status, tax payers money or any other bull. we are all entitled to privacy. i wish her well and a speedy recovery

Larbre34

What a miserable life she has. Going through all the usual trials and tribulations of family life, except doing it in a fishbowl.

Hopefully people will just leave the fukk alone now, to go through her chemo and recuperate in peace, with her family.

English tabloid vulture c**ts.

TheValeyard

Dont give a fcuk about Royals, but wouldnt wish cancer on anyone. Hope she makes a full recovery.

Cancer is a cnut.

eightieschewbaccy

Absolutely **** thing to face and hope the treatment goes fine. Hopefully puts an end to speculation tbh.

Hopefully the media vultures will now leave her alone and give her and her family some space and privacy

Wishing her a speedy recovery.

However this proves the speculation was mostly correct, something was up, out of the ordinary, which drove all the speculation. As time went on the speculation got more wild.

I am guessing she wanted to hold off until the kids were finished for Easter possibly. The press (British press are absolutely horrendous) and Internet trolls should maybe take this as a sign to wise up. It's a shame she felt she had no choice but to do a video announcement.

Very sad, three wee kids as well, hopefully the treatment goes really well.

What does it matter to you WHAT sort of cancer it is, or anyone else outside her family’.

Be right back

It goes to show that no matter who you are or how rich you are, cancer affects everyone. Tough to have 2 recently diagnosed in the one family.

The British press were almost certainly aware that she had cancer for quite a while.

dublinman1990

Fergus Walsh of BBC News has reported on the News at 6 that it's not known what type of Cancer she has been diagnosed at the moment.

However she has been receiving her treatment of preventative chemotherapy since last month. Although the feelings among her having the illness has been very positive.

What a terrible time for Kate and her family. I thought Charles getting treatment for cancer was enough bad news for the Royal Family. However this story about Kate's health has been reverberating within the media for quite a while. It seems that one illness want to commit a double dose of misery seemingly without any questions asked about how this illness got to them so quickly in the 1st place.

What a cruel cruel blow for a young family. I can hear my late grandmother saying, things come in threes.

n.d.os

Social Media has turned into a cesspit. Even within my own circles, some of the nonsense people were saying about her. I worry fake news is making people stupid. Wishing her a full recovery.

Psychedelic Hedgehog

No matter what your political persuasion or opinions on the monarchy, what a terrible time that family are going through, especially William to have a father and a wife suffering with that ba$tard illness.

I hope all turns out well.

I know someone on the recovery of that - pretty horrible alight - the recovery time is actually quite long so I hope she’s left in peace to come back in her own time- regardless of the specifics

I wish her only happiness for the future.

Fake news/social media is just exposing stupidity. Back in the day it was just contained to pub stools.

If her speaking up, saves lives with symptoms etc., it is a good thing, she is a member of the Royal family so the media and others are going to speculate, sorry if my speculation bothers you

Strazdas

Very sorry to hear that. It does explain why the royal family and the media have been acting so weirdly, perhaps unsure how to deal with the news or whether to reveal it or not.

Hopefully, she makes a full recovery.

winstonia

This news should keep the British press away alright

Wish her all the best, what a terrible time for the royal family.

Every news outlet that hounded her for the last few weeks, and eejits making jokes about her, is a cnut

anewme

Terrible the way she has been hounded and all the conspiracy theorists floating about.

Looks like she was forced out and I hope the family are left alone now.

John arse

Regarding her privacy,the royals live their lives in the public eye- that's what they all sign up for.That's why Harry quit. I wish her well.

I can see that both ways, because they live such public lives, a bit of privacy could be a welcome reprieve when dealing with something so inherently personal. I reserve that if there was eg. a common link between the Royals cancer (no evidence of that to date and don't actually wish to steer speculation in that direction).

KevMayo88

Poor woman. It's awful she was forced into having to make that video to appease the media frenzy. I hope she makes a full recovery.

Yes, I agree. Heard Jenny Bond in an interview last week about the photoshopping story and she essential said, there's no conspiracy and people need to back off. Can't remember her exact words but struck me that she knew more than what was publicly reported. Equally, in the last couple days Piers Morgan has also been telling people to leave the conspiracies out.

supereurope

Now that we know what we do, it's very disturbing that the Palace let her take the blame for the manipulated photo. "Protect the heir" indeed.
