Princess Kate appears to be the headstrong member of the Wales family according to a leading body language expert after the royal shared an update on her health

Princess Kate is the one offering love to her family – despite her health struggles.

The future Queen has been undergoing preventative chemotherapy after routine surgery earlier this year discovered a form of cancer. While the type of cancer she had been diagnosed with was not made public, the Princess, 42, has only made a handful of appearances in public since the news of her diagnosis in March.

Catherine attended Trooping the Colour in June to celebrate the birthday of her father-in-law, King Charles III but has remained out of public duties since. But in a new update, the mum-of-three confirmed she had finished her chemotherapy and was very much looking forward to returning to public-facing duties in the coming months.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, Catherine shared a video with royal fans where she expressed her heartfelt gratitude for the support she has received since sharing her diagnosis in March. Now, leading body language expert Judi James has shared her expertise.

Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, Judi said: “This is one of the most emotionally revealing glimpses of the royals and, as Kate announces the end of her treatment, she and William seem to want to finally and comprehensively share the profound depth of their love for each other at last and to allow us to see how surrounded and cocooned she is with love from her children and her parents.

“There are some isolated moments when we see Kate in a reflective mood, standing alone in a wood with her eyes closed as he tilts her head up at the late afternoon sun.” Judi went on to add: “The body language message here seems to be similar to some of her other moments during her illness where we have seen her sitting alone in front of the camera or posing by a tree. It endorsed her message of quietly, calmly and thoughtfully taking ‘one day at a time’.”
