After undergoing a major abdominal surgery in mid-January, doctors discovered the disease while doing follow-up tests.
Currently, she is in the early stages of preventative chemotherapy.
In mid-January, Kensington Palace first announced that the princess underwent a planned abdominal surgery.
Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, is driven down The Mall after Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral on September 19, 2022, in London, England.
While some were comical, others felt much more sinister.
(The princesslater apologizedfor any confusion due to the edits made to the image.)
On Christmas Day, the Princess of Wales attended the royal familys annual church service at Sandringham.
Everything seemed picture-perfect as she held hands with her children while wearing a cobalt-blue Alexander McQueen coat dress.
Little did the world know, it would be the last time they saw the princess for many months.
Due to medical advice, she would not return to public duties until Easter.
She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normalcy for her children as possible.
The difference between the two households statements is noticeablewith Charles being much more specific about his condition.
In late January, news broke that the Princess of Wales returned home to Windsor from the London clinic.
A week later, Buckingham Palace sharedthat Prince Charles isseeking treatment for cancer.
A few days later, he released another statement thanking the public for their support.
Soon, it turned into a fully-fledged social media moment as rumors began to swirl about the princesss whereabouts.
Much of the conspiracy commentary was humorous, but some were salacious and slanderous.
They also added the Princess was doing well.
The British press refrained from sharing the images due to the princesss privacy.
The Palace said it was taken by William last week in Windsor.
At first, it seemed like a clear refute to all the conspiracy theories.
However, on Sunday night, the Associated Press issued a kill orderan industry term for retracting an image.
At closer inspection, feels like the source has manipulated the image, the AP said in its advisory.
No replacement photo will be sent.
Indeed, the photohadbeen altered.
Princess Charlottes left hand did not match up with the sleeve of her sweater.
Middletons zipper was misaligned, and some body partsincluding a knee and a handwere awkwardly blurred.
Almost immediately, speculation about the princesss true condition reached a fever pitch.
The next morning,the Princess tried to explainthe mishap on the familys official accounts.
I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mothers Day.
Will this quell the constantly churning rumor mill?
Only time will tell.
At 6 p.m. London time, The Princess of Wales posted apersonal and emotional videoto social media.
In it, she reveals that she has been diagnosed with cancer.
The surgery was successful, the princess said.
However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present.
She ended the message by telling others who are also suffering from cancer that they are not alone.
