Catherine, Princess of Wales carried out a deeply personal engagement on Tuesday, visiting the London hospital where she underwent cancer treatment to express her gratitude to the staff who supported her over the past year.

Catherine, the Princess of Wales, revealed in a social media post on Tuesday that her cancer is in remission about 10 months after she first announced her diagnosis. CBS News' Imtiaz Tyab has the latest.

Kate Middleton's cancer journey, diagnosed in early 2024, has inspired many. She discussed treatments like Cold Cap Therapy and shared her experiences during a hospital visit in January 2025.

Catherine, Princess of Wales, said on Tuesday that her cancer was in remission, lifting a major cloud from the British royal family, which had struggled with serious health concerns for both her and King Charles III. “It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focused on recovery,” Catherine, the wife of Prince William, wrote on Instagram.

It seemed rather fitting that the Princess of Wales revealed she is in remission on the same day she visited the place she received her cancer treatments.

The problem is that a complete remission does not mean the cancer is gone. Even when a cancer is “cured” — defined as no evidence of cancer for five years — it may not be vanquished.
