Kate Middleton faces complications after chemotherapy, but still wants to return to work

Kate Middleton is facing complications from chemotherapy she is undergoing for cancer, but still plans to return to royal duties. This was reported by The Sun with reference to insiders. Earlier, reports appeared in Western tabloids that the Princess of Wales may never return to work.

“Sources close to the Princess of Wales said that at first she had problems with the treatment. This is preventative chemotherapy, which is not a pleasant thing. Everyone was afraid that after a major operation and a fairly long recovery period, she would have to undergo treatment again,” says the insider . According to him, Kate had to face serious difficulties, but now her treatment has moved to a new stage.

The source also doesn't believe there are concerns that she will never return to royal duties due to her illness. "She will 100 per cent come back to be Princess of Wales again and continue the great work she has done before. That will happen when the time is right and she is ready. It is very important that she gets the OK from her doctors."

In January, Kate Middleton, according to official palace reports, underwent abdominal surgery, after which she stopped appearing in public. Her absence was attributed to personal problems, and many conspiracy theories appeared online about what really happened to the Princess of Wales and whether she was even alive. It was because of this that Kate, according to royal insiders, was forced to publicly announce the diagnosis, which she had hoped to keep secret. However, even after the video message, not everyone believed her: fans of the royal family continued to look for hints in the video that the palace was hiding something.
