For Princess Kate, 2025 was spent slowly returning to a busier program of public events after spending the majority of 2024 recovering from cancer treatment. But this year, the Princess of Wales is hoping to turn to a new area of focus in her royal work. As revealed in an exclusive story in the Mirror, the princess wants to lean into the creative world after a palace source said that "the power of creativity" helped her get through her treatments.
Kate made a surprise appearance with Prince William to Charing Cross Hospital in London on Thursday, and while meeting with patients, the couple shared that they "know" all too well what it's like sitting around the hospital "for hours." The princess also opened up about the use of art therapy, a topic that she's keen to continue highlighting in the future.
