ALBAWABA - The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, is continuing her recuperation behind palace doors after having "turned a corner" in her battle with cancer.

Katie Nicholl, an anonymous friend of royal author and Vanity Fair reporter, made the assertion. The informant claims that princess Kate has been recovering away from the spotlight after finishing her preventive chemotherapy.

"It has been a great relief that she is tolerating the medication and is actually doing a lot better," the royal's family friend said to Vanity Fair.

"It has, of course, been a very challenging and worrying time," the person said. "Everyone has rallied around her husband, William, her parents, and her sister and brother."

According to reports, despite receiving a report briefing from her Royal Foundation Center for Early Childhood, the 42-year-old princess is not eager to resume her royal responsibilities.

Their work is "rolling on" while the princess "recovers," according to Christian Guy, the organization's executive director, who recently spoke with BBC News, adding that the princess is "excited" about their new campaign. Since she established the organization in 2021, the princess has made early childhood a priority.

Kate Middleton allegedly wanted to reassure the public by sharing the work-related update, according to insiders.

"There is no hurry, and there is definitely no timeline," a source informed Vanity Fair. The timing will depend on Catherine's readiness and her medical team's approval. But I can assure you that she will be returning to work without a doubt.

Reports surfaced that the princess and her family were out and about in recent days, prompting insiders to speak out. But there have been no photos from the supposed excursion.

Fox News Digital requested a comment from a representative of Kensington Palace, but the spokeswoman did not answer quickly.

After her scheduled abdominal surgery in January, the Princess of Wales went into hiding after announcing in March that she was receiving cancer treatment.

Princess Kate Middleton cannot return to work until her medical staff gives the all-clear. "Her public work will continue to center on early childhood," a spokesman from Kensington Palace told Fox News Digital recently.

Prince William, who has taken up public responsibilities with other members of the royal family, visited a housing project in the Duchy of Cornwall earlier this month on his first overnight excursion. The initiative aims to assist those experiencing homelessness.

According to Ian Pelham, a royal specialist, William has been extremely at ease since leaving London and being spotted in Cornwall, which suggests that Kate is currently on the mend. Fox News Digital reported this at the time.

When the princess Kate announced her chemotherapy treatment on March 22, she thanked her fans for their "wonderful messages of support."

Our whole family has had a really difficult couple of months. She expressed her gratitude for the exceptional medical staff that had attended to her.

The cancer diagnosis recommended "preventative chemotherapy," and Kate Middleton is currently in the early stages of that treatment. She also informed her three children, Princes George, 10, Louis, 6, and Princess Charlotte, 9.

"I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal in my mind, body, and spirits," the monarch stated. The love, support, and compassion that many of you have given, together with William's presence at my side, is a tremendous source of comfort and reassurance. The two of us are really moved by it.
