Kate Middleton has been taking some much-needed time away from the spotlight as she continues her cancer treatment. The Princess of Wales has not been involved in public-facing royal duties since December 2023, and she announced in March 2023 that she had been diagnosed with cancer; she did not reveal the cancer type or stage.
Now, as Kate continues to get better and undergo treatment, friends close to the royal family say the princess is focused on one “key thing” during the remainder of her treatment.

Kate Middleton’s uncle Gary Goldsmith is opening up about his royal niece. In addition to commenting on the Princess of Wales’ surgery recovery, the contestant on the U.K.’s Celebrity Big Brother has shared his thoughts on continued online speculation. Ahead, what he had to say about the recovery conspiracy theories Kate can’t seem to shake.

According to Omid Scobie’s new Endgame book, Kate Middleton’s mother, Carole Middleton, didn’t wait around hoping her eldest daughter would someday marry a prince. She did something about it, “orchestrating” the now-Princess of Wales’s life to put her in Prince William’s orbit. Soon Kate found herself “at the right places at the right time,” and eventually, the Prince of Wales “fell” for her.
Carole knew Kate could ‘carry the family name further to the top’
In his latest book, author and royal correspondent Scobie revisited the early days of William and Kate’s romance. Before they met and fell in love as college students, it was, Scobie claimed, Kate’s parents, but primarily her mom, who knew the now-41-year-old had the potential to run in royal circles.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are learning from the past. The Prince and Princess of Wales are avoiding Princess Diana’s “biggest parenting regret” by making sure their main focus is their children. They put being with Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, first. But it’s not without consequences in another major area of their lives: royal duties.
Diana regretted being away from Prince William and Prince Harry so much for work
There’s no denying Diana’s love for her sons, William and Prince Harry, but there were things she wanted to do differently as a parent. Speaking to Ok! Magazine, royal author Duncan Larcombe discussed the late royal’s “biggest parenting regret,” work winning out over spending time with William and the now-Duke of Sussex.
“Diana was very hands-on with the boys,” he said (via Express). “But there were large chunks of time she had to be away due to work.

Prince William and Prince Harry aren’t on good terms, to say the least. As such, they don’t do the occasional get-together with their wives and children. According to a royal commentator, that leaves the Prince of Wales to play the uncle “role” not with his brother’s children but with his in-laws.
William can ‘relish’ being ‘uncle’ to Pippa and James Middleton’s children
Speaking to Ok! Magazine, royal expert Jennie Bond explained how William, 41, can’t seemingly be “uncle” to Harry and Meghan Markle’s kids, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2. That leaves him to play the “role” with his nieces and nephews on his wife, Kate Middleton’s side of the family.
“Especially as it seems that William is unlikely ever to play a role in the lives of Harry’s children, he can relish being Uncle to Pippa and James’s brood,” Bond said, referring...

Kate Middleton and Prince William welcomed their first child, Prince George, way back in 2013. Since then, George has started to make more and more public appearances, meaning he will soon learn the ropes of the British royal protocol.
But it turns out George was at the center of royal protocol the moment he was born — Kate Middleton was reportedly forced to hide the birth of her first son from her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton.

To Kate, George’s birth was likely the most memorable moment in her life. Kate and William wed back in 2011, and they spent a little more than a year adjusting to married life — and royal life as a married couple — before Kate learned she was expecting her first child.
