Kate said she and William had been doing all they could to “process and manage” the news in a private way for their children’s sake.
The prince is said to be focusing on supporting Kate and their children Prince George, 10, eight-year-old Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, who is aged five. He will continue to undertake engagements and work as the heir to the throne while his wife undergoes treatment, it is understood.
Back in January, when Kate underwent major abdominal surgery, the couple were described as having moved to a stance of “100% family first, day job second”. William stepped back temporarily from official duties to care for the princess and look after their children. READ MORE: Kate Middleton has cancer and announces she is having chemotherapy.
This was at a time when the King was also away from public engagements following treatment on his prostate. In her address to the nation today, Friday, March 22, Kate described recent months as “incredibly tough” for her family. But she paid tribute to William, with whom she will have been married for 13 years next month.
Talking of how she explained the news to her three children, Kate said: “As I have said to them; I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirits.
“Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance too. As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both.”
