‘I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you personally for all the wonderful messages of support and for your understanding whilst I’ve been recovering from surgery,’ the princess said.

‘The surgery was successful,’ she explained. ‘However, tests after the operation on cancer had been present.
‘This, of course, came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family.’
On the topic of their three children, the future queen said: ‘It has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be OK.’
The princess is now on what has been described as a ‘recovery pathway’ having commenced a course of chemotherapy in late February.
