The Princess of Wales marked World Cancer Day 2026 in a rather different way to last year’s touching photo taken by Prince Louis. Sharing a video featuring clips of her visit to The Royal Marsden Hospital last January, Kate provided heartfelt narration. Her message was one of equal parts vulnerability and hope - something that will no doubt touch many people watching.
"On World Cancer Day my thoughts are with everyone who’s facing a cancer diagnosis, undergoing treatment or finding their way through recovery," she began. "Cancer touches so many lives; not only patients, but the families and friends and care-givers who walk beside them. As anyone who’s experienced this journey will know, it’s not linear."
