Queen Camilla Shares First Public Words About Princess Catherine After Cancer Reveal

Queen Camilla is showing support to Princess Catherine.

Days after Kate Middleton revealed she has been diagnosed with cancer after abdominal surgery earlier this year, King Charles III‘s wife made a point to show her lots of love. The 76-year-old visited the Shrewsbury Farmers’ Market for a tour on Wednesday — one of her first public events since Kate’s announcement. A huge crowd gathered to welcome the royal, including two little girls, 10-year-old Harriet and 6-year-old Lois, who made posters for the Princess of Wales.

Per royal editor Rebecca English for the Daily Mail on X (Twitter), the kids held homemade signs that read, “Send our love to Kate.” Camilla spotted them and went over to the girls, saying:

“I know that Catherine is thrilled by all the kind wishes and support.”

She took the posters with her and promised to deliver them to the mother of three, Matt Wilkinson of The Sun added. She said this to the young royal fans:

“I shall send these on to Catherine, she will be thrilled.”

Very sweet!

It’s a tough time for the family as Camilla’s husband is also going through cancer treatment right now, too. So, seeing so much support from locals must’ve been heartwarming!
