In a rare move, Kensington Palace has stepped into the spotlight to clarify ongoing rumors regarding Catherine, Princess of Wales, and her cancer treatment.
This comes amid swirling speculation about her absence from public life and her supposed relocation to the United States for medical care.
It’s been months since Princess Catherine revealed her cancer diagnosis, and since then, social media has been rife with theories about her health and whereabouts.
Many users have suggested that she is no longer in the UK, fueling the idea that she might be receiving treatment in Houston, Texas.
This theory has gained traction, leading some to believe that Catherine has chosen to undergo therapy at the Monroe Dunaway Anderson Cancer Center, a facility known for its cancer research and treatment.
In response to these claims, Kensington Palace broke its usual silence on such matters.
A spokesperson for the Royal Court firmly denied the rumors, stating that they are entirely false.
This statement was published in an article by the Houston Chronicle, which aimed to set the record straight regarding the Princess’s treatment.
Interestingly, while the Palace has addressed the rumors, representatives from the Texas clinic have opted not to comment.
They cited patient privacy laws as the reason for their silence, which only adds another layer of intrigue to the situation.
The clinic has a history of treating high-profile patients, including tennis legend Chris Evert and the late rock guitarist Eddie Van Halen, but their involvement with Princess Catherine remains unconfirmed.
As speculation continues to swirl, tabloids are now questioning whether Catherine will ever return to her royal duties.
A source close to Bazaar magazine weighed in, emphasizing that discussions about her potential return are premature.
According to this insider, Catherine is currently focused solely on her health, making any predictions about her future role in the royal family mere conjecture.
The Princess herself announced her diagnosis in a heartfelt video message shared on royal social media back on March 22.
In that message, she explained the need for time to recover after a complex surgery and how she had approached the subject with her children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
While the Palace has not disclosed specifics about the type or stage of cancer, Catherine did share that her diagnosis was early-stage, and she is undergoing chemotherapy as part of her treatment plan.
This transparency has been appreciated by many, yet it has also left room for speculation about her ongoing absence from public events.
Catherine’s last public appearance took place on December 25, when she joined the royal family for the traditional Christmas morning service at Sandringham.
