I'm assuming ovarian based on the abdominal surgery and the quotes about her being "lucky to be alive". Ovarian cancer is extremely pernicious and it has a low survival rate. My aunt battled it and had to have abdominal surgery to remove a huge mass of cancer tissue. She did chemo as well, but it eventually killed her within a couple of years of her diagnosis. I think it's weird that she won't name it either, but maybe discussing any matters of the ovaries is too improper for British nobility.

I really don't need to know what kind of cancer she had. What purpose, if not satisfying morbid curiosity, would it serve? Why fucking dwell in the mortality-oriented aspect of the disease? If she did reveal the type, I could see people "doing their own research" and coming up with all sorts of speculation about prognosis, survival rates, and causes. And God forbid , speculation about what she may have done to bring on cancer so young. All unproductive.
If she has a duty to fulfill, it would be to support efforts like preventive screening for young people, supportive services during treatment and aftercare, and research. Stuff that can practically help people with all types of cancers.

I understand her desire for privacy and it is her right to maintain it. Some people who have celebrity and favorable press take the opportunity of their illness to educate people about what symptoms to watch for, what to expect during exams and surgery, helpful hints to endure chemo and radiation. But that's asking a lot, and the experience might be too fresh and/or too painful for her to recount to the public.

I'm not r33, but celebrity means FAMOUS, or BEING WELL-KNOWN. Yes, we call movie stars and other media figures who seek out fame "celebrities", but someone like the wife of the future kind of England will have celebrity whether she sought it out or not. The Royal Family of Great Britain exploit its celebrity for many good causes, mainly to raise money for charities. Part of the business of "the Firm" , (the name given to it by Queen Elizabeth's father, (King George VI) is to make sure that the royal family is always in the news somehow or other, although it tries to make sure that the publicity is positive whenever possible.

As a working royal, she does have a kind of quasi-constitutional role. and she receives a substantial amount of money from the Head of State for it. So there is a real public interest in her state of health: the level of detail required is obviously a matter for debate.

If it's ovarian cancer, then it's understandable not to want to put it out there.
Ovarian cancer is usually caught late therefore has a low survival rate. Not only would identifying the cancer as ovarian send the media into a frenzy, it would scare her children.
The "abdominal surgery" she had is consistent with the "debulking surgery" many ovarian cancer patients have prior to starting chemo. Informing the public she had "abdominal surgery" is one way around naming the actual cancer.

Yes, it's a personal decision, but the problem with Kate is that a) she's a public figure, like it or not, and b) it's already been revealed she was being treated for cancer. I don't see why she can't just tell people what kind of cancer she was treated for.

You're American right?
I don't think there is a huge disappointment in the UK that she has not been spilling her guts. It is true her family is famous, but it's official purpose is not to provide gossip.
I think she realizes it's galling to some people, like you, that you can't know everything about her private life. Like me, she may wonder why it is galling to you that you can't know what's going on inside her torso and she concluded she just can't please everyone and their inscrutable needs.
Unlike Harry or Diana, I don't think she is suing people or giving interviews constantly complaining about people talking about her. She has just decided not tell you all the things you desperately want to know, but don't need to know. I think it's galling only to you and your kind.
The point of the family is to provide a ceremonial head of state, not to talk about their intestines or reproductive tracts. Do you also wonder what the point of the president of Germany or of Israel is if he or she doesn't talk about her intestines or reproductive parts?

R117. Thank you for posting what was openly acknowledged in my post already. It is most helpful.
To repeat, if he wished to reveal these private details, he can. It should not be a source of frustration if he does not.

She's so dainty and delicate. Butter wouldn't melt in her mouth. Have her kids seen all of her drunk photos? Those of you who circle around this woman like she's some fragile baby doll aren't helping. If she wanted privacy, she should have married Bill the Scottish Fishmonger. She doesn't have to go into details. Just say, "They discovered a tumour in my colon. Colon cancer is affecting younger people. Please schedule a checkup today and donate to the Cancer Society.

I think she’d be nuts to start divulging any details about the type of cancer. It’s almost certainly colon or ovarian or something related/adjacent. She’s at least a little bit vain (nobody wears such over top hair extensions or makes such an effort to emphasize their slimness unless they are a little vain) and doesn’t want people taking about whether or not she has genital warts or a colostomy bag. I wouldn’t, either. Her kids are an even bigger reason. If you have a life expectancy of 5-7 years, there is no need to divulge that to kids that young. They can be told mom is ill and get the full gut punch when it’s down to a year. And a third reason might be that she got new experimental treatments not available to the average Briton that saved (or at least extended) her life. She can’t very well share a cancer story that involves her being saved by a treatment the NHS won’t provide for other people in the same condition.
But the “precancerous” bullshit, laughably amateurish doctored photo, complete disappearance (she could have waved out a car window ffs), and cheesy video were stupid moves.

If it's ovarian, the idea that the future of the British monarchy was born of cancer-generating organs is an unfavorable matter of optics.

It's completely idiotic for her to say what kind of cancer she has. She is a human being and even if she is a celebrity has a right to privacy. And as one poster said if she reveals it the gossip and speculation would go through the roof and it's bad enough now. King Charles has not revealed what kind of cancer he has and nobody expects him to. Speculation says it is worse than the King lets on but it's his business. Hold something on for yourself and deal with it privately.

Wisteria AI:
The term "Wisteria sisters" refers to Kate Middleton (now the Duchess of Cambridge) and her sister, Pippa Middleton. It was a nickname used by the British press and within aristocratic circles to describe them, particularly in the early 2000s when Kate was dating Prince William. The name is a reference to the plant wisteria, which is known for its decorative appearance and ability to climb with "ferocious" strength, according to The Daily Mail. This nickname highlighted their perceived social climbing ambition and polished appearance, according to a post on Instagram.

Nobody is surprised that an elderly man who’s looked ill and deathly for a decade now has cancer.
People are more surprised that an early 40s woman who has been seemingly healthy now suddenly has a serious cancer that required her to have major surgery and a year of treatment. It’s not unreasonable for the public to be interested in what’s going on.

I agree that she needs to be careful about how she talks about it. The initial PR missteps seem to have been forgiven by the public, but that sympathy card may not be good to play twice. The “Yay, I’m better” video didn’t go over too well and it was followed pretty quickly by her apparently NOT being better enough to follow a relatively light schedule.
She’s in a really tough spot. Whatever is wrong with her, it’s likely that her long term prognosis has some uncertainly, especially since cancer treatments improve constantly. This was not an interview, correct? She was doing a visit and simply talking to people? She’s got to say something, right? Sharing that she’s had a hard time doesn’t seem inappropriate to me. But if it comes out that she wasn’t that ill or the opposite was true and anyone else would have died but she had a head transplant and then spent 3 months in suspended animation getting her DNA edited and the blood of virgins transfused into, her that’s going to come back to haunt her.

I think Charles has either testicular or anal cancer, also being obviously embarrassing…and likely resulting in some jeering by asshole members of the public.
