The mysterious media absence of Duchess Kate mainly marked the first months of 2024. After a few weeks of online speculation, Prince William's beloved announced in March that during a January stay in a London hospital, a "certain form of cancer" was detected. The 42-year-old also revealed that she had undergone preventive chemotherapy and announced that she would put most of her commitments on hold to focus primarily on her recovery. Let us remind you that after revealing the sad health news, Kate Middleton made her first public appearance in mid-June, participating in this year's Trooping the Colour.
