The Princess of Wales has returned to work.
Her Royal Highness, aka Kate Middleton, marked her first official day back on the job as a working member of The Royal Family on Tuesday following her completion of preventative chemotherapy for cancer, according to multiple reports.
“The Princess of Wales, Joint Patron, the Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales, this afternoon held an Early Years Meeting at Windsor Castle,” an entry in the official record of past royal engagements known as The Court Circular states.
Meeting with the team at the Early Years organization, which aims to give children a better start in the first five years of their lives, was a fitting choice for the princess’ first official work appointment of 2024 given that she has described the project as “her life’s work.”
Her health permitting, Kate is reportedly planning to carry out “a handful” of duties in the coming months, according to The Times.
Prince William was also listed on Tuesday’s Court Circular entry, according to royal reporter Richard Palmer. The Prince of Wales “went on a private visit today to meet special forces soldiers from 22 Special Air Service regiment who have recently served on operations,” Palmer posted on X.
Palmer was among those who reported on the princess’ return to royal duties.
At the time of publication, Kate and William’s meetings were not reported on the publicly available court circular online.
The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.
Princess Catherine revealed that she completed her chemotherapy and is “cancer free” in a social media post on Sept. 9.
“I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment,” the Princess of Wales said in a statement on X.
“Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.”
She continued, “Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes. Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown.”
Adding that she was “entering a new phase of recovery,” the princess closed on a hopeful note: “Out of the darkness can come light, so let that light shine bright.”
Kate shocked the world with her cancer reveal back in March following months of speculation about why she hadn’t been seen in public.
The mother of three underwent major abdominal surgery at the London Clinic in January. She was not diagnosed with cancer until after the surgery.
The Royal Family has not revealed what type of cancer the princess has been battling.
Prior to her official return to work, Kate did make a few public appearances signaling to supporters that she was on the mend. She cut a glamorous figure at this year’s Trooping of the Colour ceremony — the British monarch’s official birthday celebration — on June 15, channeling Audrey Hepburn in “My Fair Lady,” and looked elegant at the Wimbledon Gentleman’s Singles Final on July 14.
