    Cancer.

    Who?

    Can we be more exact rather than speaking in riddles?

    Sad news.  Hopefully stops all the daft speculation.

    You genuinely may have forgotten, so please don't take this sarcastically, but this thread is titled Kate Middleton, and indeed, this is about the Princess of Wales having cancer (as just announced)

    Apologies, I thought it was obvious from the thread title.
  • All the best to Kate, hope she battles through, got to feel for William at the moment with both his Dad and Wife dealing with Cancer

    Wish her all the best for a speedy and complete recovery. I hope she's now given all the space and time she and her family need.

    Best wishes to the Princess of Wales for a speedy recovery. 

    I hope that all the vile comments will now stop and she'll be able to recover in peace.

    Thats funny ... People will now be demanding and putting the wrong shite together, as to why its taken so long for us to be told

    Really like her and was gutted when I got the bbc alert. Hope she makes a full recovery.

    She explains the delay in her broadcast statement.

    Wasn't sure if it was separate sad news about the royal family coming on to the thread, but all makes sense now of course.

    Don’t you mean in The Princess of Wales on Blackheath?

    She's far too young. God bless her, hopefully the media can now leave her alone

    All the very best to Kate and everyone dealing with illness.
    Maybe the press & media will now leave them be (don't expect it mind you).

    Yes. Extremely shitty hand to be dealt, no matter how privileged the rest of your life may be.

    I'd like to think the people who have been intruding and speculating might learn a lesson from this, but I won't hold my breath.

    However, I would also say it would have probably been better from their perspective if they'd just announced it and asked for privacy while they dealt with it. Any decent person with an ounce of morality would be sympathetic and respectful. The lowlifes who wouldn't be put off by it are the same ones who have made this into a story in the first place so they'd have been hassled to some extent either way, but it would at least put the spotlight on the wrong 'uns.

    A grim coincidence that both Charles and Kate had their cancer discovered while having an operation. The positive I guess is that without the operations, the cancer might not have been discovered until much later, when it was much more serious.

    They delayed telling because it wasn't diagnosed until the end of February and they wanted to tell the kids first.
    But waited to tell the kids until they broke up from school.

    Princess of Wales diagnosed with cancer as she speaks of 'huge shock' - Grimsby Live (grimsbytelegraph.co.uk) .. her statement 'live'

    Let's hope she recovers and regains full health

    She explains why in her broadcast speech.
