Following her surprise revelation that she had undergone abdominal surgery in January, Princess Kate vanished from the public eye for 70 days. Then, on March 22, she explained why. “It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present,” Kate said in an emotional video posted on the Kensington Palace Instagram account that left the whole world reeling. “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." This magazine tells the complete story of Princess Kate and the new reality of her life now.
