She last appeared in public to attend King Charles III’s birthday parade in June. Before that appearance, she released a statement saying that she was making good progress with her treatment but that there were “good days and bad days.”
Catherine, 42, added that chemotherapy and other care would continue for a few more months. She previously said she hoped to attend events over the summer.
The March announcement ended months of speculation about the princess’s health after she took time away from the public following major abdominal surgery in January. She received an outpouring of support from family and the public when she made the announcement, including from President Biden, who said, “Jill and I join millions around the world in praying for your full recovery.”
The king, 75, was also diagnosed with cancer this year. Neither royal family member has disclosed what type of cancer they have.
