After being diagnosed with cancer in March 2024, Princess Kate has shared that her outlook on life, naturally, has shifted. While family remains her top priority, the Princess of Wales remains dedicated to her royal work. According to one commentator, Kate's health battle has inspired her to chart her own course, avoiding the restrictive palace bureaucracy that Princess Diana famously dubbed "the grey men."
Former BBC royal reporter Jennie Bond told OK! (via the Sun) that the princess “has grown into a strong woman and we are seeing her take agency over her own life."
