Cancer is a word that strikes fear into the hearts of many.

It’s one thing to hear about it on the news, but when it hits close to home, the reality becomes overwhelming.

Amaya Arrieta, a close friend of the Princess of Wales, knows this all too well.

As a designer who creates outfits for Kate and William’s children, her bond with the royal family runs deep.

So, when Amaya learned about Catherine’s cancer diagnosis, her distress was palpable.

In a heartfelt statement, Arrieta expressed just how tough this situation has been for her friend.

She described Kate’s experience as “going through hell,” a sentiment that resonated with many.

This stark contrast to the more upbeat updates from Kate’s husband, Prince William, who insists she’s doing well, has left the public in a state of concern.

The mixed messages have only fueled speculation about the true state of Kate’s health.

On March 22, the Princess herself shared a video revealing how she came to learn about her diagnosis, which includes chemotherapy as part of her treatment plan.

While some skeptics have dismissed the video as fake, the majority of viewers felt reassured simply knowing that Kate was still alive and fighting.

Yet, whispers suggesting that Catherine has already passed away and that the royal family is covering it up persist, despite the glaring reality.

People seem to forget that Catherine has a loving family who wouldn’t just carry on with life if tragedy had struck.

Her mother was recently spotted out at a bar with her son-in-law, showcasing the family’s support during this difficult time.

William has made a solemn vow to his wife’s parents: he will not abandon Kate while she battles this illness.

Support also comes from her father-in-law, King Charles, who has his own health struggles.

Despite facing cancer himself, he treats Kate as if she were his daughter, providing her with the strength and backing she needs.

Interestingly, while Charles appears to be managing his illness relatively well—attending public events and fulfilling royal duties—many speculate that Kate’s condition may be more severe.

As the treatment progresses, there’s growing concern about the toll it is taking on Kate.

It’s common for patients undergoing such intense therapies to feel unwell, especially as they reach the later stages of treatment.

The risk of secondary infections looms large, given the impact on her immune system.
