Prince William Shares Update After Kate Middleton’s Cancer Remission

Prince William has shared a devastating update 8 months after Kate Middleton‘s cancer remission.

For the Prince of Wales, the year 2024 was unlike any other. In the space of weeks, both his wife, Princess Kate, and his father,

King Charles III, were diagnosed with cancer, turning royal life into a private battle for survival and resilience.

Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, reflected on those months as the family endured back-to-back health crises.

“I’d say 2024 was the hardest year I’ve ever had,” he admitted in a candid conversation with actor Eugene Levy for Apple TV+’s

The Reluctant Traveler, set to premiere October 3.

“Life is sent to test us, and being able to overcome that is what makes us who we are.”

Kate Middleton announced her cancer remission in January 2025 after months of preventative chemotherapy.

At the time, the news brought relief to the nation, but the Princess of Wales later revealed the aftermath of treatment was far from simple.

During a royal engagement in July,

she explained: “Treatment’s done, then it’s like, ‘I can crack on, get back to normal.’ But actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult. You have to find your new normal, and it takes time. It’s a rollercoaster.”

King Charles, too, remains under ongoing outpatient care for his own undisclosed form of cancer, diagnosed in February 2024.

The dual battles tested the entire family’s strength, with William at the center, juggling his role as heir with the demands of fatherhood and caregiving.

Now, eight months after Kate’s remission, William has shared a heartbreaking update.

Speaking again about that period of turmoil, the future king confessed that the scars of the past year are still fresh.

“Honestly? It’s been dreadful. From a personal family point of view, it’s been brutal,” he admitted. While he praised both his wife and father for their courage, he acknowledged the toll remains heavy.

The devastating truth is that, even with Kate in remission, the royal family is still navigating the long road of recovery, physically, emotionally, and publicly.
