Princess of Wales prioritises health while preparing for a gradual comeback
Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, is expected to return to her royal duties gradually as she continues to focus on her health following chemotherapy treatment. While her treatment is complete, full recovery may take years, and she will re-enter public life at her own pace, according to a royal commentator.
Royal expert Jennie Bond explained that Kate’s full-time return to her duties is unlikely until she fully recovers. "She will not be rushed, as the days of duty taking precedence over everything have passed," Bond said. Kate, the future Queen, may opt for virtual appearances through video messages and social media to stay connected with her causes while focusing on her family.
Both King Charles and Prince William are reportedly supportive of Kate taking as much time as she needs to recover. Bond added that a full return to royal duties might not happen for many years, allowing her time to balance her health and family life.
The expert also predicted that Kate may make a public appearance on Remembrance Day if her health allows. Additionally, there are plans for her to host her annual Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey, a cherished royal event that will likely see support from senior members of the royal family.
In a message reflecting on her experience, Princess Kate acknowledged the challenges of her cancer journey, describing it as "complex, scary, and unpredictable" for both herself and her loved ones.
