Princess Kate made a last-minute announcement that she would join the King and Queen for a special reception for a cause close to her heart. To celebrate Cancer Research UK’s 125th anniversary, the King, Queen, Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, and Princess Kate joined key supporters and volunteers from the UK’s biggest cancer charity at St. James’s Palace. Following her own cancer journey in 2024, the event must have been particularly poignant for the Princess of Wales.
