Princess Kate (43) made a touching visit to the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she had received treatment last year. During her visit, she expressed deep gratitude and emotion. This marks a significant moment in her return to public duties, as she is now in remission from cancer.
How Princess Kate really felt during her hospital visit
During her visit, Princess Kate took the time to engage with patients and staff. Body language expert Judi James observed, speaking to the 'Daily Mail,' that Kate displayed "almost overwhelming urge to communicate. Her brows are raised in a high arch and she is very animated, with very emphatic hand gestures that signal excitement and gratitude," James explained.
These gestures reflect the strong connection Kate shares with both the patients and staff at the hospital. The Princess also spoke candidly about the challenges she has faced over the past year. In a personal statement, she described the "complex, frightening, and unpredictable" nature of her diagnosis and treatment.
A new role for Princess Kate as patron of the hospital
During her visit, Kate announced that she would take on the role of Patron of the Royal Marsden Hospital, alongside her husband, Prince William (42). This prestigious role was previously held by Prince William’s late mother, Lady Diana (†36). Princess Kate expressed her deep gratitude for the support the hospital team provided.
