Kate Middleton has confirmed her preventative chemotherapy treatment has ended in a new update.

The Prince of Wales made the announcement at 11.30am ET today as Kensington Palace released new images of her family.

In a video showing the family walking through woodland, Kate says: “As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to finally have completed my chemotherapy treatment.

“The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life as you know it can change in an instant, and we’ve had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters.

“The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you. With humility, it also brings you face to face with your own vulnerabilities in a way you have never considered before, and with that, a new perspective on everything.

“This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved. Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.

“I am, however, looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.

“Despite all that has gone before I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life. William and I are so grateful for the support we have received and have drawn great strength from all those who are helping us at this time.

“Everyone’s kindness, empathy and compassion has been truly humbling. To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey – I remain with you, side by side, hand in hand. Out of darkness, can come light, so let that light shine bright.”

Kate was also pictured looking reflective while walking through a field and also smiling alongside husband Prince William and her three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

In March, she disclosed treatment had begun on order of doctors who noticed irregularities following abdominal surgery five months earlier.

The Princess, 42, has spent most of her time out of the public eye as she recovers, though has made occasional appearances, such as at Trooping the Colour in June.

Speaking at the time, she described making positive progress while experiencing “good days and bad days.”

“On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to your body resting. But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well,” Kate said in June.
