Princess Kate’s statement in full
Mr Ship said: “Prince Harry has reached out to his brother, Prince William after learning of Kate’s cancer.
“Harry and Meghan have both been in touch with their brother/sister-in-law but did so privately.
“It not clear if that was a phone/video call or some messages of support.”
Kate’s diagnosis is the second cancer shock to hit the royal family in as many months after King Charles revealed he was also undergoing treatment.
He last night praised Kate for her “courage” in a statement from Buckingham Palace.
Kate’s brother James Middleton also shared a touching picture and message to his sister after the shock diagnosis was revealed.
He wrote: “Over the years, we have climbed many mountains together. As a family, we will climb this one with you too.”
Kate said she initially had no signs of cancer but post-op tests showed the disease had been “present”.
She has chosen not to reveal what type of cancer she has but said she is in the early stages of treatment.
The “proud” King also remains in close contact with his “beloved daughter-in-law” and that both he and Camilla will “continue to offer their love and support to the whole family through this difficult time’.
Sitting on a bench at Windsor for the poignant clip, the royal thanked her husband Prince William for his support.
Her voice also cracked as she said she has broken the news to George, 10, Charlotte, 8, and five-year-old Louis.
The Princess of Wales added: “This of course came as a huge shock. William and I have been doing everything I can to process this privately for the sake of our young family. As you can imagine this has taken time. It has taken time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment.
“Most importantly it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them and to reassure them that I am going to be OK.
“As I have said to them, I am well and I’m getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal in my mind, body and spirit.
“Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance too. As is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It means so much to us both.”
Gary Goldsmith DIDN’T know about niece Kate’s cancer when he went into CBB house
PRINCESS Kate’s uncle Gary Goldsmith didn’t know about his niece’s cancer when he went into the Celebrity Big Brother house.
The former businessman, 58, was the first to be evicted from the ITV show which first aired early in March, after Kate was given the devastating news that post-op tests had detected cancer.
Gary regularly discussed Kate on the show but refused to give details – even brazenly saying: “If it’s announced, I’ll give you an opinion.”
Hours after Kate shared her devastating news in a video message, her uncle appeared in a glitzy magazine shoot spilling details Prince William, Kate and the King.
Gary took to X last night, saying that feature was “done over a week ago and went to print before I was aware of the sad news regarding my niece Kate”.
Gary wrote: “As many will have seen, I am featured in Saturday’s ‘Times Magazine’.
“This interview and shoot was done over a week ago and went to print before I was aware of the sad news regarding my niece Kate.
“My thoughts and prayers are with Kate and the wider family at this difficult time and deeply upset at the timing of this article.
“I hope this draws a line over the continued speculation and horrible conspiracies.
“Let’s give Kate, William & the children time and show some love back.”
Kate said the family now needs “time, space and privacy” while she completes her treatment.
She will not be returning to public duties for the foreseeable future.
A Kensington Palace spokesperson confirmed Kate started a course of preventative chemotherapy in late February and is now on a “recovery pathway”.
The diagnosis was the reason William pulled out of an event last month for a “personal matter”.
The Palace was unable to say when chemotherapy treatment will end and said Kate had spoken to the King.
It also confirmed Prince William will continue to “balance supporting his wife and family and maintaining his official duties as he has done since the start of the year”.
He is expected to return to royal duties after the Easter school holidays.
The Palace spokesperson added: “The Princess wanted to share this information when she and The Prince felt it was right for them as a family.

Grovelling celebs who spouted vile Kate conspiracies are shameful bullies, says royal expert
VILE celebrities who dished out conspiracies about Princess Kate’s health should be “ashamed.
Hugo Vickers, royal historian, told The Sun: “The conspiracy theorists, went in big time in the last few days.
“It says an awful lot about the mindset of these people. The high profile ones, but also the very irresponsible members of the general public who just sort of weighed in as well.
“It was extremely unattractive because, we all love the Princess of Wales, and she’s done a fantastic job.
“She’s really faultless in everything she’s done ever since she married Prince William.”
The expert added all the vile trolling and ‘Katespiracies’ would have “made things much more difficult” than they already were.
“I think quite simply, they should be feeling very ashamed of themselves,” he added.
“I think quite a few people have popped up and apologised, and rightly so.
“This is not something you should be joking about, or bonding about all sorts of absurd theories.”
“You will always have conspiracy theories because if you’re a conspiracy theorist, that’s what you do,” continued Mr Vickers.
“There are always going to be people coming up with theories and they always will so that you can’t stop.
“I think that anyone who pops up with some ludicrous theory about the princess would get very short shrift.
“And so I imagine that they will go to ground to be quite honest, because in a sense, they are bullies. They’re pushing it the whole time.
“And as somebody rightly said years ago, inside every bully, there’s a coward desperately trying to stay in.”
It was understood she would be absent from royal duties until after the Easter break.
Kate was last officially seen with her family at the Christmas Day church service in Sandringham.
Her absence has been plagued by vile conspiracy theories over her whereabouts in the weeks that followed the announcement.
On March 4, Kate was seen for the first time since her operation. as she rode in a car with mum Carole, 69.
That same week, she shared a sweet snap of herself with Prince Louis, Prince George and Princess Charlotte for Mother’s Day.
But eagle-eyed royal fans were quick to spot flaws in the snap – before photo agencies ordered a “kill notice” on the pic.
This caused further vile conspiracy theories to spread – before Kate admitted on March 11 that she had “experimented with editing”.
She was spotted in the car with Prince William as they left Windsor Castle that afternoon.
Kate was later said to be “very sad” that the sweet photograph had triggered a global furore.
Then, on Saturday, royal fans spotted Princess Kate out and about near her home at Windsor.
On Monday, Kate was seen in a video obtained by The Sun shopping with Prince William.
The diagnosis comes as three workers at The London Clinic are investigated over allegations they attempted to hack Kate’s medical records.
It’s time to show Kate more respect, blasts Sun’s Royal Editor
THE Sun’s Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson says it’s time cruel trolls lay off Kate as he gives his insight into her shock cancer diagnosis.
It is sometimes hard to remember and understand that this is a family and they are going through very tough experiences at the moment.
I find it very interesting that she does speak about how they’ve taken time, they’ve needed time, to process this information and also tell their three children George, Charlotte and Louis, which would be an incredibly difficult conversation.
A lot of people who have poked fun at Kate purely to gain hits online, such as Kim Kardashian, need to have a hard look at themselves and apologise for their behaviour.
People have been asking where’s Kate? Well, she’s been coping with this cancer diagnosis and having to tell her young family.
Much of the abuse has also come from so-called ‘Sussex Squad’ members on Twitter who are fans of Harry and Meghan. This has been a shameful episode and people should show the Princess of Wales more respect.
We know the Princess of Wales went into hospital for abdominal surgery in January. That surgery was successful and it was non-cancerous. However, subsequent tests have found cancer and at the end of February she embarked on the start of preventive chemotherapy.
They’ve taken time to process this and Kate has announced this to the world today.
They’ve chosen today because it is the last day of school for George, Charlotte and Louis and it means that they can now huddle together as a family for the next couple of weeks away from all the drama and really come together and deal with this cancer diagnosis.
A cancer diagnosis that Kate has said she has found shocking, but it’s also a cancer diagnosis that many people around the world will listen to and will have sympathy for and empathy for because there are many families that are also going through this kind of situation and having to break the news to their children, as in this case.
Kate has been living her life in the spotlight for many, many years and there has been some very nasty stuff posted online. Lots of bullying, we would suggest, about Kate and about why she has been missing for the last couple of weeks.
We understand that wasn’t a motivation for her coming out today to make the statement but it’s obviously something that has dominated the front pages and dominated social media online. Questions about what has happened to Kate. Now she has answered it and said that while everyone has been discussing where she is, that actually she has been coping with the diagnosis of cancer and digesting this with her family.
She has told the rest of the Royal Family. The King – who also has his own diagnosis of cancer and is also undergoing treatment – has been made aware. The Royal Family will be circling the wagons.
I think she will be getting a huge amount of support from family and friends and she has spoken about how William, obviously, has shown her so much support.
They will now be off for a couple of weeks with the three children for Easter. William will return after the Easter holidays. And The Princess of Wales may well return.
She says she is full of hope, she says that she hopes that she will get better, she’s told the kids that she will be OK.
So we may see The Princess of Wales in coming months attending engagements but we really do need to give her time as she has asked to see how the preventive chemotherapy gets on.

The duo is set to scrap two months later, and the event will be live-streamed on Netflix. Mike gave an update on his health condition, which might have worried his supporters before the fight.
Mike Tyson’s return is slated to be one of the biggest in the boxing world.
Mike Tyson gives an update on his physical condition
Mike Tyson is 57 years old in the ring, and Jake is much younger, 27 years of age in the ring. Many criticized Paul’s decision to fight a much older man in the boxing ring. Tyson claimed he is willing to take on the much younger YouTuber boxer in the ring. The duo were involved in face-offs for their fight earlier today. Mike Tyson was asked how he has been leading up to his fight against Jake Paul. Tyson replied,
My body is shit right now, I’m really sore.
Tyson clarified that his training for his fight has physically taken a toll on him in the octagon. Ariel Helwani claimed that Mike may be playing possum, but Tyson revealed that he is having a tough time with the physical aspect of training. Jake Paul might be rejoicing on hearing this news, as his opponent is already struggling to put in the work. It will be interesting to see what happens soon between the two.
Mike Tyson will have to use one of his powerful boxing combinations to secure a victory over Paul. Paul might have a cardio advantage as he is used to fighting for longer durations and has much more active legs. It will be hard for Mike to match the activity of a much younger Jake inside the boxing ring when the duo fight in the ring.

The upcoming fight between Jake Paul and former boxer Mike Tyson has divided fans. While some believe Tyson would smash Paul, others think otherwise because of the age difference.

“I think Jake Paul wins because of Youth. That’s the only thing. I personally think influencer boxing is really good. I think Jake Paul brings all these people into boxing which benefits everyone else”

Boxing legend Evander Holyfield believes Oleksandr Usyk has the edge over Tyson Fury ahead of their historic unification bout in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night.
The two heavyweights, who are each bidding to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion of the four belt era, will finally take to the ring in Riyadh after months of preparation, with the Fury considered the favourite over the Ukrainian.
But Holyfield, who reigned as the undisputed cruiserweight champion during the late 1980s, believes Usyk’s versatility and size gives him an advantage over the Gypsy King, praising the 37-year-old fighter’s relentless and energetic style.
‘I think, if Tyson Fury can keep him out there, keep hitting him with the jab, he is going to win,’ Holyfield exclusively told Mail Sport on Friday. ‘Usyk is going to try and get in, so Tyson needs to keep him out there and keep him out there for a long time.
‘But, if Usyk manages to get in, the fight could go in his favour. If the guy that has the long arm is successful in keeping out there, he will win. But, if Usyk is able to get in, he is going to win because he throws more punches and he’s got the faster hands.

‘Usyk actually has the advantage because he is the smaller guy, but he’s also got good punching power and he has quick hands. So, he’s really got more of an advantage, he’s really got more.’
Holyfield, who claims Usyk has been ‘tested more than taller guys’, has suggested that the Ukrainian will adapt better on the night than Fury.
‘Being smaller guys too, we are in and out all of the time. We are accustomed to it. The big guys, they are the ones that aren’t accustomed to it but they hit a lot harder too,’ he added.
‘Usyk has a lot of energy. He likes working. He’s one of the those guys, you just look at him and you know he is trouble. He has that look in his face that you know he is winning to go through anything.
‘He hasn’t been a really big guy his entire life, so he’s constantly been tested more than the taller guys. When you’re a big guy, people don’t mess with big people.’
Tyson Fury has continued the mind games heading into Saturday’s showdown with Oleksandr Usyk, by revealing why he refused to look at his opponent during the pre-match press conference.
The two heavyweights meet in Saudi Arabia this weekend in what is one of the biggest fights in recent boxing history.
With all four belts on the line, the victor has the chance to become the division’s first heavyweight to unify the division since Lennox Lewis defeated Evander Holyfield in 1999.
Ahead of the bout, the two fighters participated in the final press conference, where Fury tried to get in the head of the Ukrainian by refusing to look at him during proceedings.
Throughout the press event, the Brit boxer looked straight ahead at the crowd and failed to look in Usyk’s direction.

Talking to Sky Sports in the aftermath of the event, Fury was asked why he didn’t go face-to-face with his opponent, to which he jokingly replied by saying: ‘He’s a scary looking dude.’
Fury went on to say in the interview that he’s now ready for all the games and talking to stop and to get on with the fight.
Adding: ‘Yeah I’m just here to relax now and just wait until I get in the ring on Saturday night. All the talking is done, all the interviews are done, I’m just relaxed and focussed.’
He ended the quick interview by being asked when he’d be ready to switch into fight mode, stating ‘Whenever, whenever I decide to.’
The face-to-face refusal has been another slice of drama in an eventful build-up to the fight in the Middle East.

There has also been complaints from some in the Ukrainians team over the ring canvass that will be used in Jeddah.
With fears that the joins in the material could be a trip hazard for the fighters – a claim that has been shot down by the man who made the canvass Mike Goodall.
