Lady Violet Manners and her sister Alice praise Kate Middleton for showing ‘strength beyond strength’ – after Princess revealed cancer diagnosis

Lady Violet and Lady Alice Manners have praised the Princess of Wales for showing ‘strength beyond strength’ – after she candidly revealed her cancer diagnosis in a video on Friday.

The socialites, who are both daughters of the Duke and Duchess of Rutland, shared Kate Middleton’s touching announcement via their Instagram Stories.

Purple, 30, reposted a video of British entrepreneur Daniel Daggers who wished the royal family a “speedy recovery” and urged the public to “please support people rather than condemn them.”

“Yes,” she added in her own caption. Meanwhile, her sister Alice, 28, placed three white hearts along with the words “strength, more than strength” in a story sharing the clip of the princess.

Speaking from a bench surrounded by daffodils and spring blossoms, the future queen said: “It has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that suits them, and to reassure them that I will doing. OK.

“As I told them; I am doing well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirit.

‘Having William by my side is also a great source of comfort and reassurance. As does the love, support and kindness shown by so many of you. It means so much to both of us.”

The Duchess of Rutland lives in a separate wing of The Crown’s Belvoir Castle from her estranged husband, the Duke of Rutland. She has since found love again and is in a long-term relationship with Phil Burtt, the manager of the castle estate.

She and her daughter Violet are the brains behind a podcast called Duchess, which explores the heritage of Britain and Ireland. Violet – who has admitted in the past that Kate would be a ‘dream guest’ on the show – came up with the idea when she was studying in Los Angeles and became homesick for England.

In the summer, Violet said Fox news that the Princess of Wales ‘is a real hero of hers’.

‘I think the work she and the Prince of Wales do for all the charities they are involved with is extraordinary. We are lucky to have them in this country,” she said.

“I think in reality they are remarkable. They work extremely hard for the charities and organizations they are involved with.

‘There is a serenity in the work they do that is so admirable.’

Catherine’s cancer was only discovered after she underwent major abdominal surgery at the London Clinic in January.

Kensington Palace has said it will not share details about what type of cancer the princess has, or what stage of cancer it is, and has asked people not to speculate.

The King – who is currently undergoing cancer treatment himself – and the Queen were both informed of the news.

In a statement this evening, His Majesty said he is ‘so proud of Catherine for her courage to speak as she did’ and that he remains ‘in the closest contact with his beloved daughter-in-law’.

The king and queen said they “will continue to offer their love and support to the entire family during this difficult time.”

Charles was left ‘very emotional’ after having a private lunch with Kate the day before she bravely revealed her cancer diagnosis to the world.

The 75-year-old monarch traveled from London to Windsor Castle on Thursday for a personal conversation with his ‘beloved’ daughter-in-law.

It is believed that Kate wanted to confide in Charles about how he was coping with his own battle with the disease The sun.

The Princess of Wales also discussed her emotional video in which she sat on a park bench and told the nation of her ‘huge shock’ at discovering she had cancer.

The intimate lunch between the pair strengthens the strong bond Kate and Charles share with the King, lovingly describing the Princess as his ‘beloved daughter-in-law’.

Months earlier, Charles had put on his dressing gown and ‘toddled’ over to comfort Princess Kate as they both recovered from surgery at the London Clinic.

A source said Charles and Kate would have had a lot to discuss at the Windsor Castle lunch with the king just weeks before he started his course of treatment.

“The king left his lunch feeling very emotional,” they said.

‘They are very close and he considers Catherine his daughter.

“There is no doubt that they have much to share and can use each other as support during their own deeply personal battle with cancer.”

Meanwhile, insiders told the newspaper Sunday Times that King Charles, who was being treated for an enlarged prostate, ‘wobbled’ out of his hospital bed to see Kate down the hall.

The princess had undergone major abdominal surgery at the time – not believed to be due to a malignant condition – but post-operative tests found signs of cancer.

The idea of ​​the cheerful king comforting his daughter-in-law – as they both faced major health challenges – will warm the hearts of millions of people across the country.

Kate and Charles have found comfort in each other as the couple simultaneously battles cancer, a well-placed source said The Telegraph.

“They can both empathize with what the other is going through, which helps during a difficult time like this,” they said.
