Kate Middleton Is Undergoing Treatment For Cancer

In a video uploaded to the Prince and Princess of Wales social media accounts, Kate Middleton answered all the questions royal fans have been asking since her surgery was announced in January, delivering some grim news along with the update.

"I underwent major abdominal surgery in London," Kate said in the video, "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 preventative chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment," she continued. "This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family."
