The Princess of Wales reflects on a challenging year of cancer treatment as she celebrates quietly with family.

  • Prince William shared a heartfelt tribute on social media, calling Kate Middleton the 'most incredible wife and mother' and praising her resilience over the past year.
  • Kate's 43rd birthday comes after a year marked by her cancer diagnosis, abdominal surgery, and chemotherapy, which she completed in September 2024.
  • A new black-and-white portrait of the princess, taken by photographer Matt Porteous, was released, portraying her in a relaxed, casual style.
  • The royal family, including King Charles and Queen Camilla, extended public birthday wishes, with Charles continuing his own cancer treatment into 2025.
  • Kate plans a gradual return to royal duties following her recovery, but international travel remains off the table for now, focusing instead on family and health.
