Two years ago, in March 2024, the Princess shared a recorded video statement confirming her cancer diagnosis. “It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family, but I’ve had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I’m so grateful,” her message began.
“In January [2024], I underwent major abdominal surgery in London, and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventive chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.” The Princess detailed that the diagnosis had been a “huge shock” for her family and that the recovery from such major surgery had taken a significant amount of time.
Then, in January 2025, the Princess of Wales announced that she was in remission, sharing the news via an emotional Instagram post. “It is a relief to now be in remission, and I remain focused on recovery,” she wrote. “As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am, however, looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead. There is much to look forward to. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.”
The Princess of Wales’ long-term health plan clearly includes a shift in attitude to how often and how much alcohol she consumes. We wish her the very best with her continued recovery.
