Calling her cancer diagnosis a huge shock, Kate said in a video message, “In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous.”
”The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.”
