Kate Middleton is slowly returning to royal duties following her cancer treatment. The Princess of Wales has completed her treatment, but her full-time return to royal life is not being stressed. Still, she has been on some engagements in recent weeks, as of this weekend, together with her husband Prince William.

While Kate Middleton has focused on recovering from this very challenging period, the feud with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has loomed in the background. The Sussexes’ claims about the Royal Family have included Kate, too. Still, as of today, she has been singled out as the one with the power to reunite her husband and brother-in-law.

However, all possibilities of the Sussexes and the Royal Family making amends appear to be fading. A new report suggests that even Kate Middleton is giving up on it—primarily because of this one main reason.

Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, which was made public in March, left royal fans worldwide in shock. The Princess of Wales had been away from public life since her abdominal surgery in January. After a lot of speculations, including the manipulated Mother’s Day picture for which Kate received hefty criticism and later apologized, she decided to tell the world about her cancer diagnosis.

Kate Middleton announced she is free from cancer

The mother-of-three underwent cancer treatment, and in April, for Trooping the Colour, she made her first public engagement since the diagnosis was revealed to the world. Although Kate Middleton has been attending some engagements, her recovery has been the most important thing and her main focus.

In early September, the Princess of Wales gave the fantastic news that she had finished chemotherapy and was now “cancer-free.”

“As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment,” Kate MIddleton said in an emotional video, which also featured her family. “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 have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown.”

The Princess of Wales continued by saying that her cancer journey has been “scary and unpredictable for everyone.” She added that it has given her “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,” Kate Middleton continued.

“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.”

She concluded by saying she would undertake “a few more” royal duties in the coming month.

Kate Middleton under “no pressure” to attend Christmas event

Kate also thanked the public for their support and sent a message to those fighting cancer.

“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,” she said.

“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 Middleton has focused on her recovery, and despite her now being cancer-free, there is no rush back to royal duty. The Princess of Wales will be attending some royal engagements in the coming months, but the most important thing is that she remains healthy and does not rush into anything.

One yearly event close to the princess’s heart is the Christmas gathering at Sandringham, including the traditional service at St. Mary Magdalene Church. A source told the Express she is “on the guest list” for this year’s Christmas gathering. However, no one will push her to be there.

“She’s keen to join her children and family to celebrate the holidays, but there’s no pressure for her to attend,” the source said. “Obviously everyone is looking forward to having her there, but if she doesn’t feel up to it on the day, the family will understand.”

Although Christmas at Sandringham will surely be a fantastic opportunity to spend time together, four family members will not be there.

Expert claims Kate Middleton was “influential” in decision to congratulate Harry on 40th birthday

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, alongside their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have no contact with the royal family. The feud between the Sussexes and the royals is at a low point, just as it has been for the last few years.

Prince Harry stated that he wouldn’t bring his wife and children to the UK unless he gets the police protection he feels they deserve, but despite his plea being denied, the Duke did not give up. Meanwhile, he hasn’t spoken to his brother for years, and while their relationship is terrible, the same unfortunately goes for Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle.

The Duchess reached out to Kate when they found out about her cancer diagnosis, but besides that, no contact has been made.
