Watch the video of Catherine, Princess of Wales, as she revealed Friday that she is in the early stages of chemotherapy after being diagnosed with cancer.
The princess, who is 42 and married to the heir to the British throne, Prince William, described the diagnosis as a “huge shock” in the video, which was released two months after Kensington Palace said she had undergone surgery for a non-cancerous abdominal condition.
She said later tests found cancer, and her medical team advised her to undergo chemotherapy.

The video follows the recent release of a photo that showed a smiling, casually dressed Kate in jeans, seated on a chair on a patio outdoors, embracing her three children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 5, who are posed around her. The photo was accompanied by a message thanking the public for their “kind wishes and continued support over the last two months” and wishing “everyone a Happy Mother’s Day,” referring to the celebration of the holiday in the U.K.
She later acknowledged manipulating the image and in a statement from Kensington Palace apologized for the photo confusion.
“Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing,” the future queen said. “I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day. C.”
