Princess Kate hosts secret tea party for Three Peaks Challenge participants

The Princess of Wales invited fellow Three Peaks Challenge adventurers for tea at Windsor Castle.

Kate previously completed the challenge in a surprise feat of endurance to raise money for the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity and “explore life beyond diagnosis”.

The princess, who announced in January 2025 she was in remission from cancer, is captured in a social media video posted Friday (25 September) sitting down with her guests including 11-year-old Ted Haslam, a wheelchair user who also completed the challenge.

In a written message accompanying the post, the Princess of Wales said: “Listening to their experiences of the challenge and their reasons for taking it on was a powerful reminder that recovery is rarely a journey we make alone, and of the importance of the people who walk alongside us along the way.”
