The rest after the ad
If there is one year that Charles III, as sovereign, would like to forget, it is this one. 2024 did not start under the best auspices with the successive announcements of the operations undergone by the king and his daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton. These interventions revealed in the two crowned heads cancers against which they are still fighting today.
But on both sides, the disease has lost battles. Charles III was even able to accompany Camilla Parker-Bowles on a tour of Oceania, where he played barbecue kings. If the latter was arranged with a reduced duration, it could take place, even if they were mistreated in Australia. A path that Kate Middleton could perhaps also undertake very soon.
Robert Jobson, author of the book Catherine: Princess of Wales, spoke about the state of health of Prince William's wife: “From what I understand, Catherine is doing very well. She returned to sport and did everything she wanted to dohe revealed in an interview with Hello magazine. JI think we'll start seeing her a lot more often andit will continue to ensure commitments while continuing to work behind the scenes.“
Kate Middleton, more numerous but thoughtful appearances
Last September, Kate Middleton announced big news regarding her health: that of stopping the preventive chemotherapy that she had started a few months earlier. In the meantime, illness had not prevented her from making a few appearances, such as during the Wimbledonn tournament with her daughter Charlotte in July. If until now, her presence was confirmed at the last minute depending on her form, the Princess of Wales can now see further but while remaining reasonable.
The idea of a potential tour is even mentioned but the expert remains categorical: the well-being of Kate Middleton will come first. “I think thatit will focus on more significant events. She will come back step by step and will do things that mean a lot to her. […] I think William is very keen for her to make a comeback, but that doesn't necessarily mean we're going to see her do one engagement after another.” he explains. Robert Jobson adds: “They probably realize that successive appearances may have less impact. Catherine being a key female character in the family, she can have as much if not more impact, even if appearing a little less than before the illness.“What is certain is that no matter the number of public outings, fans of the royals are already happy to see her again.
