Kate Middleton’s cancer video was rushed by Kensington Palace after her diagnosis leaked: report
Kensington Palace reportedly rushed to release Kate Middleton’s cancer video after her diagnosis leaked.
A source close to the matter told the Daily Mail Monday that the palace attempted to get ahead of the news after an unknown person found out about the Princess of Wales’ health condition.
Per the outlet, the palace wasn’t worried about Middleton’s absence from church Easter morning causing a frenzy as much as they were about the information obtained.
The insider didn’t clarify whether the leak came from the London Clinic — where the princess underwent abdominal surgery in January — or elsewhere, according to the outlet.
On March 22, Middleton revealed she had been diagnosed with cancer after months of fans speculating and stirring up wild conspiracy theories about her whereabouts.
In the heartbreaking broadcast video, the 42-year-old explained she was in the early stages of chemotherapy, claiming the diagnosis came as a “huge shock” to herself and her husband, Prince William.
Opening up about her experience, she told audience members, “In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful.
“However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.”
At the time, palace sources told Page Six that Middleton and William, 41, were trying to keep her condition private so that their children — Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5 — could “understand and process the news before it was made public.”
Continuing her statement, Middleton explained, “As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment.
“But, most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be OK.”
A few days before the princess spoke out, the Daily Mail reported that a security breach involving her medical records occurred at the London Clinic.
An insider told the outlet that the royal family was alerted about the breach, ensuring a “full investigation.”
Shortly after revealing her condition, Middleton and the Prince of Wales packed their bags and headed to their vacation home in Norfolk on March 23, per “Entertainment Tonight.”
The outlet reported that the family would spend their kids’ spring break at the Sandringham Estate.
They seemingly stayed at the estate to celebrate Easter privately after they were notably absent from the annual Easter service at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor.
