Princess of Wales Undergoing Cancer Treatment

Catherine and her medical team are being realistic - until she is finished her treatment, all her testing is done and shows no signs of cancer, she is not out of the woods. Her statement has to be one of the most personable statements I have ever seen being released from any royal household...

The Prince and Princess of Wales have made a donation to help replenish stock at a south London food bank which had thousands of pounds worth of goods stolen.

(Sorry, I copied that from the BBC website, where it was in bold type, and I can't work out how to un-bold it!)
 
According to the article the food lost approximately 3,000.00 pounds worth of food and hygiene products.
Kensington Palace said Prince William and Catherine had heard about the burglary and wanted to offer their support.

The food bank said the couple had pledged £3,500.

@Alison H Re I copied that from the BBC website, where it was in bold type, and I can't work out how to un-bold it!
  1. Highlight ad copy the text you selected
  2. place the mouse on the chat box, right click and select the line copied to be placed as 'Place as plain text' and that removes the tricky original bold setting from being carried over.
Re article, that was such a nice gesture of the Wales. Hope the food bank had cameras to prevent the crime to be repeated.
 
William met up with some of the Olympic swimming team for an event, he also explained to them that he did not attend the Olympics due to his fear of contacting Covid and possibly infecting Catherine while she was going through her treatment.
 
Didn't Prince William attend the Euro Cup in Germany? Maybe that was after she finished chemo and before Wimbledon. I was always surprised he wasn't wearing a mask when he was out meeting the public while she was undergoing treatment because of the uptick in covid cases.
 
Now I remember. Charlotte went to the Wimbledon final and George Went with his dad.
 
I’m not sure where this story should go. Mods, please move wherever is most appropriate. Thank you!

This story is so moving and hopeful I cannot stand it. 😭 When you life deals you a bad hand and you are facing one the worst of struggles, if you can still find ways to connect and keep alive just a little bit longer…that’s what it’s all about right there.❤️‍🩹

“The palace staff have been calling us every day to check we’re alright,” [Liz’s mum] Vicky said. “And I say ‘yes’. I’ve honestly never seen Liz as alive as she has been this week.”

Following an interview with ITN Liz was given the opportunity to observe and photograph the news desk. British Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Planet Circus and modelling agency Storm Management, which were all named on her list, have said they would help to facilitate her wishes.

Sanctions for Russian misinformation linked to Kate rumours

A Russian network sanctioned by the UK for misinformation was linked to false rumours about the Princess of Wales.
www.bbc.com www.bbc.com

Six Russian agencies and individuals accused of being part of a disinformation network face sanctions from the UK government.
The so-called Doppelganger group had been linked earlier this year to spreading false rumours about the Princess of Wales.
The Foreign Office warned of a "vast malign online network" intended to cause disruption and confusion, distributing fake news and undermining democracy.
The Doppelganger group are accused of trying to incite division within countries supporting Ukraine in the war against Russia.

In March this year the group had been claimed as amplifying a wave of rumours and fake claims about Catherine, when she was out of public view with health problems.

I wonder why they felt the need to amplify the rumors. What was their expected outcome?

The conspiracy stories about the Princess were planted on social media and propagated using BOT farms with a view to discrediting the Prince of Wales, the next inline to be monarch. All of these things are designed to destabilise the social fabric of the UK.
 
Thanks I never thought of it as destabilizing the social fabric of the UK but it makes sense.

They wanted to underscore that the monarchy and the British government would be negatively affected by the health issues for King Charles III and the Princess of Wales.
 
It’s rare for William to speakable so frankly and openly about his personal life and feelings regarding his role. As such, I think it’s all the more moving and deserving of praise that he has continued to conduct himself so admirably throughout this crisis.
 
A fun little detail is that we now know that Charlotte wasn't happy with William's beard either... and that he even shaved if off because of it before growing it again.
 
The full interview with William in the Times

In an interview at the end of his four-day trip to Cape Town, where he conducted informal engagements wearing “sustainable” trainers and ties made from recycled plastic bottles, William said of his public role: “I’m trying to do it differently and I’m trying to do it for my generation.
“And to give you more of an understanding around it, I’m doing it with maybe a smaller ‘r’ in the royal, if you like. So it’s more about impact, philanthropy, collaboration, convening and helping people.”

William, who wore a beaded bracelet spelling “Papa” throughout the trip made by Princess Charlotte for their outing to a Taylor Swift concert in June, said that Kate was “doing well” with her recovery after completing her chemotherapy, and plans to join him on overseas tours next year.
“I think hopefully Catherine will be doing a bit more next year, so we’ll have some more trips maybe lined up,” he said.
It is understood the couple plan to visit several European destinations in 2025, but without Prince George, 11, Charlotte, 9 and Prince Louis, 6. William said: “Family-wise, you’ll have to wait a little bit longer because obviously they’re at school and I think that takes priority over everything else.”

Next year William will also visit Brazil to attend the Cop29 climate summit — which begins this week in Baku, Azerbaijan. The next Earthshot awards are expected to be held in South America too, and the prince hopes to hold the awards in China and India, two of the world’s biggest polluters, in the coming years.
