A tribute to Dame Deborah James has been paid by Prince William and Kate Middleton following the mum-of-two's death. The campaigner's family announced in a social media post last night (June 28) that the 40-year-old had lost her fight with bowel cancer.
Following the tragic news, tributes have flooded in for Dame Deborah, who campaigned to raise the awareness of the condition while trying to show what life was like living with cancer. A Just Giving page set up by her to raise money for Cancer Research UK has raised nearly £7million as of 10.20am today.
The latest tribute to Dame Deborah has been paid by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Last month, Prince William visited the campaigner at her family home to give her a damehood in person.
