Princess Kate is Being "Careful" Not to "Commit" to Specific 43rd Birthday Plans Amid Cancer Battle

With Kate Middleton's birthday quickly approaching, many royal watchers are likely wondering how the princess intends to celebrate her big day. The truth is, the Princess of Wales has typically kept her Jan. 9 celebrations relatively low-key, but that doesn't mean her family and friends won't treat her like a (future) queen for a day. However, one royal expert says that when it comes to any kind of public events, Princess Kate will likely not be signing up anytime soon.

Referring to her cancer battle, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams told GB News, “If you look at Kensington Palace and the way they handled this. They've been very careful. We have absolutely no idea the way she will celebrate her birthday."
