All eyes were on the Princess of Wales during the traditional walkabout outside Sandringham Church on the morning of December 25. Kate, wrapped in a long deep green coat, delighted admirers of the royal family – some who came from far away in the hope of speaking to her a few words – by being attentive to everyone’s expressions of sympathy. THE Telegraph notes that the princess seemed to “pay special attention” to those “who told their own cancer survivorship stories.”
A video has made the rounds on social networks in which we see the Princess of Wales exchanging a few words with an employee of Macmillan Cancer Support. A source of inspiration for the center’s patients, Kate, in the words of the young woman, spoke about the unprecedented support received this year. “The number of people who have written this year is extraordinary,” assured Kate, “I think cancer affects many families.”
Exchanging comforting words here and there, her arms loaded with bouquets of flowers and letters, Kate finally realized her slow progress in the procession. “It seems that I have lost my family!” she had fun, according to People, when she realized that she was the last in the procession, her husband and their three children waiting at the end of the aisle, their arms also full of presents.
Write to the Princess of Wales
No figures have been provided regarding the number of missives found in the Princess of Wales’s mailbox. Following the announcement of his cancer, King Charles III received, in the space of a month, more than 7,000 letters of support sent from all over the world. A figure communicated by Buckingham Palace at the end of February. Given the popularity of the princess, the Crown’s second favorite personality after Queen Elizabeth II, letters and cards must also have been sent generously.
