Kate Middleton speaks out on ‘difficult’ time after cancer treatment

Ever since she has posted the video in which she disclosed her cancer diagnosis with the public, Kate Middleton has remained largely out of the picture and was nowhere to be seen. But the time away seemed to fit her because she got the chance to rest.

Today, a year-and-a-half after the diagnosis, she has slowly but surely returned to some of her royal duties.

Most recently, she attended the Trooping of Color event, accompanying her husband and their three children.

According to royal correspondent Rebbeca English, the entire experience has led Kate and William to get a whole new perspective on life.

English says that the trauma she has gone through, changed the beloved princess as a person.

“Cancer impacts on your perspective, and what you have seen in the decisions they have made over the last year is that family and their children continue to be at the center of their universe,” a source told English.

“Both Their Royal Highnesses have a strong commitment to duty, service, and using their platform for good. But what they are working on is ways they can balance themselves as parents with being the Prince and Princess of Wales.

“Everyone is adjusting the dial,” another source said.

On June 2, Kate visited Colchester Hospital in Essex where she met cancer patients and spent time in a specially created outdoor space meant to help them recover during treatment.

People reported that Kate opened up about her cancer journey during the visit. She explained that the time after treatment was different than she imagined.

“You put on a sort of brave face, stoicism through treatment. Treatment’s done, then it’s like, ‘I can crack on, get back to normal,’ but actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult,” Kate Middleton said.

“You’re not necessarily under the clinical team any longer, but you’re not able to function normally at home as you perhaps once used to. And actually, someone to help talk you through that, show you and guide you through that sort of phase that comes after treatment, I think is really valuable.”

She added: “You have to find your new normal and that takes time…and it’s a rollercoaster, it’s not smooth, like you expect it to be.

“But the reality is you go through hard times.”
