The princess Kate Middleton continues with her cancer treatment, after undergoing abdominal surgery last January. At 42 years old, the wife of Prince William is going through a challenging process, although in her recent public appearances, she has been seen very smiling and strengthened. Before that, according to her medical history, she was always a very healthy woman.

The Princess of Wales had not experienced strong health problems, which may have contributed to her strength in the midst of chemotherapy treatment. She was always known for her good health.

However, according to El Debate, during her three pregnancies (Prince George's in 2012, Princess Charlotte's in 2014, and Louis's in 2018), Kate suffered complications with hyperemesis gravidarum, which is characterized by severe nausea and vomiting.

A pregnant woman with hyperemesis gravidarum can vomit up to 20 or 30 times a day, which can put her life and the baby's at risk, as her body rejects the necessary nutrients for both during the gestation phase. The woman is unable to retain food or drink.

The aforementioned media outlet says that Kate Middleton confessed to using meditation and deep breathing to control her symptoms. During George's pregnancy, the princess spent a lot of time in the hospital, but with Charlotte and Louis, she received medical assistance at Kensington Palace.

Kate Middleton and her childhood medical history

During a private dinner at Clarence House in 2011, Kate Middleton was seen for the first time with a scar on the left side of her head, measuring at least about seven centimeters. The information quickly spread in the media. What was the Princess' scar from? Some speculated it was from surgery for a tumor.

The rumors and speculations were so strong that they issued an official statement explaining that "the scar was related to a childhood surgery," but they did not specify how it was made.

In addition to the scar and her difficult pregnancies, Kate Middleton has no further complications in her medical history.

The type of cancer diagnosed in 2024 remains a mystery. Official statements have mentioned chemotherapy treatment, but they have never specified where in the body this condition is located.
