Princess of Wales seen for first time since announcing she has finished chemotherapy

The Princess of Wales has been seen in public for the first time since announcing that she has finished her chemotherapy.

She attended the Sunday service at Crathie Kirk in Balmoral with her husband the Prince of Wales, the King and the Queen.

This week, Catherine returned to work for the first time since starting her cancer treatment with a meeting about her early childhood project.

She appeared in the Court Circular, the official record of the Royal family’s activities, for a meeting at Windsor Castle as she begins easing back into “a handful” of engagements over the coming months.

The entry, published in The Telegraph, reads: “The Princess of Wales, Joint Patron, The Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales, this afternoon held an Early Years Meeting at Windsor Castle.”

She is understood to have been joined by members of her team at the Centre for Early Childhood, as well as Kensington Palace staff.

It is the first meeting noted in the Court Circular this year since the Princess withdrew from public life, first for major abdominal surgery and then for chemotherapy.

Earlier this month, she released a video explaining that she had finished her course of preventative treatment and saying she looked forward to returning to work in a limited capacity.

“Doing what I can to stay cancer-free is now my focus,” she said. “Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long, and I must continue to take each day as it comes.

“I am, however, looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months, when I can.”

The Princess is expected to attend a Remembrance Sunday service in support of the Royal family, veterans and their families. She is also set to host her annual carol concert at Westminster Abbey in December. No other engagements have been confirmed.
