Royal Family grapples with Kate Middleton's chemotherapy battle

For the past several months, the British media has been abuzz with the health issues of the British royal family members. The most serious seems to be Kate Middleton's situation, who—apart from the statement about the cancer—has not appeared in public for half a year.

Although the royals are relatively silent, not revealing the details of Duchess Kate’s treatment, tabloids are constantly writing about how her fight for health is progressing and how the 42-year-old feels.

In one of the latest articles, the newspaper "Marca" discussed the side effects of chemotherapy that Middleton is undergoing.

Kate Middleton is suffering from hair loss and weight loss as she battles an undisclosed form of cancer, the text reads at the beginning.

Next, however, the article's author lists the rest of the side effects, such as nausea, mucositis, and gastrointestinal disorders, and indicates that "it is not clear" what the Duchess is dealing with.

An informant from the "National Enquirer" is also quoted.

Kate and William are going through hell behind the palace walls, a high-ranking royal courtier told the newspaper.

A person close to the royals added that the princely couple "are doing everything they can to hide the illness from their three children." However, this is reportedly not easy because the cancer is "devastating" Kate.

Prince William is doing everything he can to be a pillar for his wife.

He tries to be a support while also taking care of the children and still fulfilling his official duties, a source reveals and adds:

For both of them, this is uncharted territory. William limits his travels and conducts more remote meetings, making it clear that Kate and the children are his top priority.
