Kate Middleton Health Update: What Kind of Cancer Does She Have?

With a sigh of relief, the latest Kate Middleton health update is a positive one for her cancer diagnosis. More formally known as Catherine, Princess of Wales, she revealed in a heart-warming video on social media posted on Monday, September 9, that she completed her chemotherapy treatment and that she is “cancer-free.” Princess Kate publicly shared on March 22 that tests showed cancer had been present after she underwent major abdominal surgery in January. That said, Kensington Palace and the royal family have not disclosed what type of cancer she has.

What type of cancer does Princess Kate have?

Princess Kate has not revealed the kind of cancer she was treated for, but medical experts on cancer have weighed in on what they believe her cancer diagnosis was.

A general surgeon, Dr. George Crawford, believed Kate Middleton had “either ovarian or uterine cancer” via T MZ . This educated guess is based on the fact that doctors found the cancer after she had planned abdominal surgery in January, a procedure done for a condition that Kate said was was “non-cancerous.”

Crawford also said that Kate Middleton starting preventative chemotherapy in late March, a few months after the surgery, is a hint that she needed a lot of time to recover before taking chemo treatments. This fits, he surmises, with the general timeline of finding and treating ovarian or uterine cancer during a surgical procedure.

Other common cancers that occur within the abdominal area are those that impact the liver, colon, cervix, kidney, stomach, and pancreas, according to the Palo Verde Cancer Center .

In her September post on X , Princess Kate writes that the “last nine months have been incredibly tough” for her family. She is putting her focus on staying cancer-free and the path to a full recovery is long despite her having finished chemotherapy. It is her hope that she will be able to appear in “more public engagements in the coming months.” In July, Kate appeared at the men’s singles final at Wimbledon and received a standing ovation, per ESPN .
