Princess of Wales Kate Middleton, who has been undergoing preventative cancer treatment since spring 2024, continues to keep everyone in suspense about her return to royal duties.

Prince William on Kate's condition

According to Prince William, Kate's treatment is going well, but we shouldn't expect her to appear in public until the end of the year. The state of health of the duchess does not yet allow her to take on her previous duties.

Family support

In recent weeks, Kate has been actively spending time with her children and family. Insiders note that she feels strong enough to raise children, although she still can't meet many people.

"She's on her feet, but needs peace and privacy to recover, " one of the insiders notes.

Life at Anmer Hall

The princess's family often visits the country house in Norfolk - Anmer Hall. Her mother Carol and sister Pippa are always by her side, providing the necessary support. The Duchess also devotes a lot of time to her favorite hobbies - cooking and baking.

"The Middletons have always been very close. The royal family has to be very careful with who they let in, but Kate knows who to trust, " says royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams.

Return to duties in question

Kate's state of health still causes concern among the subjects. The royal palace said Kate had been briefed on the new report published by her foundation, but it did not mean she was ready to return to work. The princess will not attend rehearsals for the annual Trooping the Color ceremony, scheduled for June 15.

"She will return to work when she gets the green light from doctors, " a Kensington Palace spokesman said in a statement.

Consequences for the royal family

Looking at the situation as a whole, we see that Kate and William have reconnected and are closer than ever. At the same time, changes in the life of the princess may affect her future royal role. The public will likely be notified of her return date when possible.
