In a recent turn of events, Gary Goldsmith, the uncle of Princess Kate, has publicly commended her for the way she has managed her cancer diagnosis.
This comes after he faced backlash for discussing his niece in an interview following his stint on Celebrity Big Brother.
Just eight days ago, a video detailing Kate’s health situation was released, and Goldsmith took the opportunity to express his admiration for her resilience.
Despite not having had direct communication with Kate since learning about her illness, Goldsmith, who was the first contestant eliminated from this season’s Celebrity Big Brother, shared that he has been sending her messages filled with love and support.
His concern prompted him to withdraw from the show’s final episode, as he relied on updates from his sister, Carol Middleton, who is also Kate’s mother.
Goldsmith’s remarks came during his first interview since a controversial piece in Awkward Times magazine, which was published shortly after Kate’s diagnosis became public.
In that interview, he had raised questions about the happiness of Kate and her husband, Prince William.
Following the backlash, he expressed regret on social media, clarifying that he had received the heartbreaking news about Kate just before the interview was aired.
During his appearance on the Spanish talk show De Viernes, Goldsmith emphasized how impressed he was by Kate’s handling of such a sensitive situation.
He noted the unique challenges she faces, balancing motherhood while managing public scrutiny on a global scale.
“She executed it flawlessly,” he remarked, praising her honesty and forthrightness throughout the ordeal.
Goldsmith acknowledged that he hadn’t spoken to Kate directly but promised to respect her family’s wishes as they navigate this difficult time privately.
Despite being eliminated early from the reality show, reports surfaced last week indicating that Goldsmith earned a substantial £100,000 for his brief participation.
The businessman revealed that he learned about Kate’s condition just an hour before the world was informed through her social media video.
In light of the media frenzy surrounding her health, he expressed hope that those close to the Wales family would exercise caution and prioritize their well-being over sensational headlines.
“I would hope that they’re more sophisticated and focused on their family first,” he stated, reflecting on the overwhelming amount of speculation and rumor circulating in the press.
Goldsmith conveyed his desire to communicate his love for Kate through text messages, emphasizing that her recovery is the most important thing right now.
As Kate prioritizes her health, Prince William is also expected to take time off during the Easter school holidays to support her.
The timeline for Kate’s return to her royal duties remains uncertain, as the family continues to focus on healing and privacy.
In the midst of this challenging chapter, Goldsmith’s words serve as a reminder of the strength and grace that Kate has displayed in the face of adversity.
With family support and public admiration, there is hope for a positive outcome as she navigates this journey.
