Kate has cancer.

Receiving preventive chemotherapy.

Feel for her i hope she gets better.

I wish her a speedy recovery. She's a very young family and lots to look forward to.

I'm not a Royalist but what a bastard of a disease.

Christ

Her interview was brave beyond belief.

Hopefully the gutter press will get off her back now and leave her to undergo a full recovery in peace

Should be left alone.

Hopefully now you morons stop with the Willian murdering that other Royal / Kate body double conspiracy.

Weirdos.

Isn't it shocking news. William will have to be stronger than ever now with both his wife and father having the disease. I just hope she makes a full recovery for both herself and their young family.

How very sad

Wish her all the best and the thousands of others, fighting such a horrible disease.

Preventative chemo suggests it's a "better to be on the safe side" course of action - hopefully she will be fine

It's just spoilt my weekend. It's horrible for such a young woman and mum.

If I was in her position there's no way I could have done that interview. As previously said I'm not a Royalist but I genuinely hope she's our next Queen.

Can you imagine what William's going through? Wife and father both with the disease.

No sane woman would have done that but for a future Queen. I wish her well.

Absolutely awful news, poor woman.
Hoping that she recovers fully very soon.

impossible, what do you mean by that? Make the tv announcement?

get well soon kate,

and chas^^

Hopefully the treatment will work, the kids need their mother.

I've not watched the video. I do not think it's necessary for me to watch it before understanding the implication of the message.

I meant only a future Queen would have the courage and fortitude to make that video message to explain her health to the country.

ah, I see. Quite agree impossible. It is sad that the ferrets in the press have forced her to do it. If it weren't for them a 3 or 4 line press statement would have been more than enough instead of, by their pressure and the insanity of modern media life, making her do this. she was obviously uncomfortable. A very, very difficult watch (which I regret doing now tbh............maybe I am part of the problem).

Good post Donegal

To me you can see it in her eyes that she is very tired and under a lot of strain, God bless her and i pray for a full recovery.

I find it bizarre the amount of people online expressing how sad they are. As someone who's watched both parents and best mate die of cancer I know what a horrible disease it is but unless you know them, I just don't get it.

Now why does that not surprise me.

so, Laying, you "don't get" one human expressing sympathy with another person (unknown to them personally who is suffering from a potentially fatal disease? Do I accurately summarise your post?

DP, I've been at rock bottom, honestly as low as many people can go due to grief cuz of this disease. I don't understand how people can get upset about a stranger, sorry if I'm different to the rest of you.

It's a little harder to understand why someone who doesn't care about people they don't know getting cancer would click into (and post) on a thread about a person they don't know getting cancer.

not a problem Lay. my deepest sympathies and I apologise profusely for the tone of my comment. I have just been diagnosed myself with prostate but it all should be ok. I should not have been so questioning about your post. I do hope you can bear up and get through the grief. I am sorry to have been so stupid. All the best

DP, sorry to hear that.  No need to be a **** though.

Best wishes to you D.P. I hope everything goes as well as possible for you.

Hear!  Hear!,  antony, penzance.  Best wishes to the lassie - she;s got guts and loads of class.  Here's hoping.

Bad enough being Diagnosed , Without having 3 Young kids

We've had quite a bit of 'theatre' to arrive at this point

The royal family telling us about their ailments, which I don't think they used to

Weeks of speculation about what was going on and why Kate hadn't been seen.

A 'dodgy' photo that we're asked to believe was photoshopped by the princess herself and got past their P.R advisers

A even dodgier (imo) pic of the royal couple leaving a farm shop (I think the Orwell quote about the state asking you to ignore the evidence of your eyes, would come in handy here).

And then a claim that someone had tried to access her hospital notes.
Well if you work in a hospital then you know there is an audit process and you can be easily identified if you try to access any information you're unauthorized to, so I find this hard to believe. Besides, 1.01 imo her medical notes would be closely guarded.

A lot of the reporting has been focusing on the supposed online trolls, and the best analysis I think has been that this going to lead to further online censorship, but we'll see.

George the last thing I want to hear is anyone has Cancer TBH

who knows whats been going on ,I actually had thoughts that she was Dead

Im not a conspiracy type ,But the photos Etc left a lot Unanswered

Have to Take into consideration what happened to Diana ..

I wish the Young lady well, and hope we get an all clear in About 5 years

So we have 2 dodgy pics and then a story the media run with regarding an unauthorized attempt to access her notes, which they put across as being blamed on social media.

Followed by one of the usual suspects - Jeremy "Should covid jabs be mandated?" Vine - putting this out:

Jeremy Vine asks callers if Twitter should be shut down in wake of Kate Middleton drama
Jeremy Vine asked his Channel 5 viewers whether the government should 'shut down Twitter' in order to protect Kate Middleton from rumours amid recent conspiracy theories

"This will sound crazy. But China does it... we've got to now take control of Twitter and shut it down for the time being."

Where's this leading to - more censorship?

Twatter in of itself isn't the problem, it's the credibility people, especially legacy media attribute to it. It provides a very jaundice view of the world, treats the extreme as if it's the norm. Normal people aren't posting on (or even reading) twatter every day. This is similar to how politics has quickly raced to the bottom, people who look after these types (politicians, royals, c lebs) and think they have to try and manage the narrative on twatter and what they invariably do instead is exacerbate the problem (as they see it). You can't reason with idiots.

just bulimia.

if its upset you/spoilt your weekend etc your going to need alot of tissues,3.5 million people currently getting treated for cancer in uk and all 3,5 million of them will be getting inferior treatment/waiting time to her,save any tears for those in far worse situation than her

She's our future Queen; she's high profile. Not to say other sufferers are of lesser importance.

the whole charade has been problem-reaction-solution
work backwards from there

Come on. This was somewhat anticipated. The reticence of news was not a good omen. Then her husband opted not to attend a family-related event at the last minute.

I wish her well, and be back to full health and enjoy being a mum to her little ones. The country can wait, and secondary; pinkest of health 1st and foremost.

Does anyone still use twatter?
