Stephen Colbert has issued an apology for the jokes he made regarding Kate Middleton on his show, following the news of the Princess of Wales undergoing cancer treatment. Middleton herself shared an emotional video message last week, reassuring others battling the disease that they are not alone and expressing her determination to get stronger every day.
Colbert had previously participated in a skit on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert that insinuated Prince William was having an affair with Middleton, before her health issues were made public. On a recent episode of The Late Show, Colbert expressed regret, stating, 'There’s a standard that I try to hold myself to, and that is I do not make light of somebody else’s tragedy. Far too many of us know that any cancer diagnosis of any kind is harrowing for the patient and for their family.'
