Catherine, Princess of Wales: I have cancer

LONDON: Catherine, Princess of Wales, revealed on Friday that she has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy, in a stunning announcement that followed weeks of unbridled speculation about her health and whereabouts.

The wife of Prince William disclosed her condition in a video message recorded in Windsor on Wednesday and broadcast two days later. It came after relentless speculation on social media ever since January, when she was hospitalized for unspecified abdominal surgery.
