Kate Middleton talks side effects of chemotherapy in new speech

Kate Middleton is touching upon her cancer treatment in a fresh public engagement.

The Princess of Wales revealed it would take her

a "few more months" before she can become cancer-free. Kate is currently undergoing preventative chemotherapy.

Opening up about her health, Kate said: "I have been blown away by all the kind messages of support and encourage meant.”

"It really has made the world of difference to William and me and has helped us both through some of the harder times. I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days."

Furthering adding at the opening of the Natural History Museum's new gardens, Kate noted: "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. My treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months. On the days I feel well enough, it is a joy to engage with school life, spend personal time on the things that give me energy and positivity, as well as starting to do a little work from home.

"I am learning how to be patient, especially with uncertainty. Taking each day as it comes, listening to my body, and allowing myself to take this much-needed time to heal. Thank you so much for your continued understanding, and to all of you who have so bravely shared your stories with me.”
