Seated amidst daffodils and blossoming spring trees, she spoke earnestly, «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. As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment. But, most importantly, 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.»
«As I have said to them; I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirits. Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance, too. As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both.»

During her January abdominal surgery, Kensington Palace initially stated it was non-cancerous. They reiterated tonight that no tests had indicated cancer. However, subsequent post-operative tests revealed its presence. This evening’s revelation will undoubtedly reverberate globally, following weeks of speculation and unfounded conjecture about her health. It presents a new challenge for the British Royal Family, coinciding with King Charles’s own cancer battle.
The princess is currently following a recovery plan, having begun chemotherapy in late February. Consequently, Prince William withdrew from a memorial service honoring his late godfather, King Constantine of Greece. Kensington Palace has emphasized against speculation regarding the type of cancer.

In her video statement, the Princess appeared casually attired in a striped Breton top paired with jeans. She said: «I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you, personally, for all the wonderful messages of support and for your understanding whilst I have been recovering from surgery. It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family, but I’ve had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I am so grateful.»
«In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and, at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.»
«We hope that you will understand that, as a family, we now need some time, space and privacy while I complete my treatment. My work has always brought me a deep sense of joy and I look forward to being back when I am able, but for now I must focus on making a full recovery.»

Even amid her personal turmoil, she had a message of hope for others battling cancer. She went on, saying, «At this time, I am also thinking of all those whose lives have been affected by cancer. For everyone facing this disease, in whatever form, please do not lose faith or hope. You are not alone.»
We extend our well-wishes for a swift recovery to Catherine, Princess of Wales. Recently, the princess was seen in public for the first time since her surgery, accompanied by her mother. View her photo here.
Carville Foresees Trump’s Downfall, Warns White House Is “Hanging by a Thread”
Carville Predicts Trump’s Downfall: “The White House Will Collapse in Weeks”
James Carville isn’t mincing words—he’s convinced Donald Trump’s presidency is on the brink. The longtime Democratic strategist believes the combination of plummeting approval ratings, abrupt firings, and a flurry of executive orders will lead to an imminent meltdown in the administration.
Why Carville Thinks Trump’s Days Are Numbered
At 80 years old, Carville has seen political storms before, and he’s certain this one is different. He points to Trump’s approval rating, which he says has nosedived from the low 50s to the upper 30s in record time. More importantly, he predicts that key Republican allies will start distancing themselves—especially if economic turmoil follows the budget-cutting policies of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). According to Carville, Democrats don’t even need to push—the White House could crumble under its own weight if moderate Republicans begin to waver.
Trump Fires Back
Unsurprisingly, Trump isn’t letting Carville’s comments slide. Taking to Truth Social, he dismissed the strategist as a “loser” who refuses to acknowledge his supposed “best polling numbers.” But Carville isn’t backing down. He doubled down in follow-up interviews, insisting that the administration is in free fall and could hit rock bottom within a month.
So, is the White House really on the verge of collapse, or is this just another heated political exchange? One thing’s for sure—Carville’s prediction is fueling intense debate across cable news and social media.
