As 2025 unfolds, Catherine, Princess of Wales, continues to shape the royal narrative with her signature grace—despite facing one of the most personal challenges of her life. The Winter break of 2023 was the beginning of the devastating period for the Wales family. The Princess went through an abdominal surgery in January 2024 and in March 2024 it was announced that Kate will be going through a preventive Chemotherapy. In September 2024, The Palace announced that the treatment has been completed and Kate is in remission. It was made public that The Princess of Wales will be taking it slow, prioritizing her health and family and will start undertaking few public engagements with time. 2025 saw the return of our beloved Kate Middleton back to the public eye following her recovery.
Though she remained out of public view during the first half of the year, Kate’s influence never waned. Her past work in early childhood development continued to inspire institutions, while royal watchers paid tribute to her enduring impact on fashion through throwbacks to her most iconic looks.
