Kate Middleton has put ‘too much' on her plate

Kate Middleton’s life is changed forever after cancer, says an expert.

The Princess of Wales, who cancelled her attendance from the second day of Royal Ascot this week, is adjusting to the new normal.

Royal expert Russell Myers writes for Mirror: “There can be no clearer indication for the Princess of Wales, and indeed anyone recovering from cancer, of the need to take things slowly. In January when Kate announced the news that she was in remission after six months of preventative chemotherapy last year, she spoke of her 'relief' but stated that she remained ‘focused on recovery.’

Quoting Kate, the expert continued: "As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead.”

Myers further adder: “That return has been anything but straightforward, although the princess has in recent days seen a more typical return to royal life.”

“However, with three public engagements in a week - attending the opening of the new V&A museum in east London, the King’s official birthday celebrations at Trooping the Colour in London and Garter Day in Windsor, the latter two amid the heatwave we are experiencing - perhaps it has all been too much,” he noted.
