Kate Middleton revealed she is in remission five months after completing her cancer treatment.
The Princess of Wales, 43, announced the happy news on her Instagram Tuesday alongside photos from her surprise visit to the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she underwent chemotherapy.
Middleton began the post by thanking the staff members for “looking after [her] so well during the past year.”
The royal said she “couldn’t have asked for more” from the medical staff, who provided “exceptional” “care and advice” during her time as a patient.
“My heartfelt thanks goes to all those who have quietly walked alongside William and me as we have navigated everything,” she wrote.
Now that she is in remission, Middleton announced her new role as Joint Patron of The Royal Marsden.
“My hope is, that by supporting groundbreaking research and clinical excellence, as well as promoting patient and family wellbeing, we might save many more lives, and transform the experience of all those impacted by cancer,” she wrote.”
“It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focussed on recovery,” she continued. “As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal.”
Middleton said she is “looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead” now that “there is much to look forward to.”
“Thank you to everyone for your continued support,” she concluded, signing off with her first initial.
