Princess Kate of Wales made a heartfelt visit to Royal Marsden Hospital in London, thanking the medical staff for the care she received during her cancer treatment, according to Kensington Palace. Kate, 43, who received preventative chemotherapy following major abdominal surgery, has now returned to her royal duties.

During her visit, she met with patients and healthcare workers, expressing her gratitude. Notably, the trip coincided with her becoming joint patron of the hospital's cancer unit alongside her husband, Prince William. She candidly shared the personal challenges her illness posed to her family.

A palace spokesperson remarked on Kate's desire to emphasize the exceptional treatment at the hospital. In video messages, she recounted the difficult experience of her treatment and how it affected her, William, and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The past year was particularly challenging for the royal family, with King Charles also receiving cancer treatment.
