The Princess of Wales has announced that she has completed her course of preventative chemotherapy following her cancer diagnosis.In a video statement, she conveyed cautious optimism about resuming a limited number of public engagements by the end of the year, although insiders from Kensington Palace emphasised that her return to royal duties would be gradual, with her recovery taking priority.No precise timeline has been provided, but those close to the Princess report that her treatment has been largely successful, and she is showing encouraging signs of progress in her recovery journey.The Princess expressed profound gratitude for the overwhelming support she received during her treatment, which she described as “incredibly tough.”She added that she had been “blown away” by the kindness shown to her by the public and her close circle during this challenging time.In a statement recorded in Norfolk, she said, “As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment.“The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. 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. The cancer journey is complex, scary, and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you.”

00:00As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed
00:08my chemotherapy treatment.
00:12The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family.
00:16Life as you know it can change in an instant, and we've had to find a way to navigate the
00:21stormy waters and road unknown.
00:25The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those
00:33closest to you.
00:37With humility, it also brings you face-to-face with your own vulnerabilities, in a way you've
00:42never considered before.
00:45And with that, a new perspective on everything.
00:50Is this filming?
00:52Hello?
00:53Hello!
00:58This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple
01:05yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted, of simply loving
01:11and being loved.
01:13Doing what I can to stay cancer-free is now my focus.
01:21Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long,
01:28and I must continue to take each day as it comes.
01:33I am however looking forward to being back at work, and undertaking a few more public
01:38engagements in the coming months when I can.
01:42Despite all that's gone before, I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed
01:47sense of hope and appreciation of life.
01:56William and I are so grateful for the support we've received, and have drawn great strength
02:03from all those who are helping us at this time.
02:06Everyone's kindness, empathy and compassion has been truly humbling.
02:17To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey, I remain with you, side by
02:23side, hand in hand.
02:26Out of darkness can come light, so let that light shine bright.
