After revealing her cancer diagnosis in a heartfelt video, Kate Middleton withdrew from public life, focusing on recovery and rest. Nearly two years later, she has slowly returned to royal duties, appearing alongside Prince William and their children at the Trooping the Colour ceremony.
Royal correspondent Rebecca English reported that the experience profoundly changed Kate and William’s outlook on life. A source explained that cancer shifted their priorities — placing family and children at the heart of everything. While still dedicated to duty and service, the couple now seeks a healthier balance between parenting and royal obligations.
On June 2, Kate visited Colchester Hospital, meeting cancer patients and sharing her own struggles after treatment. She described that stage as unexpectedly difficult, emphasizing the need for emotional guidance. “You have to find your new normal,” she said, admitting it’s a “rollercoaster” journey filled with challenges — but one she faces with quiet resilience.
