In a statement recorded at Windsor by the BBC, Catherine said her condition had been discovered after she had major abdominal surgery in January. After weeks of speculation about her health, Catherine said she and her husband, Prince William, had needed time to explain the situation to their three children, George, 10, Charlotte, eight, and Louis, five. “This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family,” she said. “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.” The Princess of Wales, 42, had been admitted to the London Clinic on 16 January for major abdominal surgery. At the time, the palace refused to confirm what Catherine was being treated for, but said the condition was non-cancerous. Catherine said it was only after the surgery that the cancer had been found. The king is also currently being treated for cancer. In her statement – recorded on Wednesday and made public on Friday, and which began with words of thanks for those who had sent messages of support – Catherine said she felt well and was “getting stronger every day”. She said: “It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family, but I’ve had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I am so grateful. “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. ” Catherine said she had been able to reassure her children that she would recover from her diagnosis. “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,” she said. “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.” The couple have endured weeks of rumours about Catherine’s condition. The speculation was only fuelled when the first official photograph of the Princess of Wales to be released after her abdominal surgery two months ago was recalled by some of the world’s biggest picture agencies over claims it had been manipulated. She soon after issued a public apology for the “confusion” and said she had been responsible for digitally editing the Mother’s Day family photograph. Catherine asked in the statement issued on Friday for time and space for her to complete her treatment and said she looked forward to returning to royal duties. She said: “We hope that you will understand that, as a family, we now need some time, space and privacy while I complete my treatment. My work has always brought me a deep sense of joy and I look forward to being back when I am able, but for now I must focus on making a full recovery. “At this time, I am also thinking of all those whose lives have been affected by cancer. For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose faith or hope. You are not alone.” The palace did not provide any further information about the type of cancer. In January, it was disclosed that the king had been diagnosed with cancer at the age of 75 after he had treatment at the London Clinic for a benign enlarged prostate. Buckingham Palace has said the king does not have prostate cancer but aides have offered no further information.
