Kate Middleton announced on Monday, September 9, that she is now “cancer-free,” reports the New York Post.
“Doing what I can to stay cancer-free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.”
The 42-year-old royal has been in hiding for most of the year after revealing in March that she was being treated for an undisclosed type of cancer.
The mother-of-three said she was now “looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.”
Kate went on to thank those who have supported her in her months-long battle with the disease: “The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown,” she said.
“The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you. With humility, it also brings you face to face with your own vulnerabilities in a way you have never considered before and, with that, a new perspective on everything.”
Prince William’s wife, who has previously acknowledged that she’s had good days and bad days while undergoing treatment, last appeared in public for the men’s final at Wimbledon back in July.
