Prince William Makes a Comeback on Social Media Following Kate Middleton's Announcement of Cancer Diagnosis

Prince William made his first public statement on social media since Princess Kate Middleton announced her cancer diagnosis. He expressed his gratitude to @Lionesses and @RachelDaly3 for their unforgettable performances. He signed off with a "W" for William. "More goals for Villa now!" William's message was about Rachel Daly retiring from soccer.

Prince of Wales remains silent on Kate's cancer battle. Kate underwent abdominal surgery in January and later revealed her battle with cancer on March 22. "Initially, my surgery was believed to be for a noncancerous condition. However, post-operation tests revealed the presence of cancer," Kate, 42, shared in a video message on social media. "My medical team advised preventive chemotherapy, and I'm currently in the early stages of treatment. Kate and William were shocked and are handling this privately for our family." "I'm improving each day, focusing on healing my mind, body, and spirit," she said. "Having William by my side provides great comfort, along with the love, support, and kindness from many of you."

It's very important to both of us. Kate was supposed to come back to her royal duties after Easter, but her treatment means she'll be away for longer. "We kindly ask for your understanding as our family needs time, space, and privacy during my treatment," she expressed. "I have always found immense joy in my work and eagerly anticipate my return once I am able." For now, I must focus on recovering fully.

Kensington Palace stated that Kate will resume official duties once cleared by her medical team, while William will support his wife and family alongside his official duties, as he has been doing since the beginning of the year. Media reported that William and Kate learned of her diagnosis in late February. Since then, the couple, who have three children together, have been processing the news. They waited to inform their kids about Kate's health battle until Easter break so they could handle it privately.

The day after the announcement, Kate and William expressed their gratitude for the love they received. "The prince and princess are deeply moved by the kind messages from people in the U.K." "Kensington Palace thanked global supporters for their understanding and expressed gratitude for the privacy requested by Her Royal Highness."
