Prince William has provided a positive health update on Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis.

Breaking her weeks-long silence, the Princess of Wales announced in March that she is undergoing cancer treatment.

Here's what she said:

The 42-year-old shared an emotional video with the world on 22 March, revealing that she was 'in the early stages of that treatment'.

“It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family, but I've had a fantastic medical team who have taken great care of me, for which I am so grateful," she said.

“In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful.

“However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present.

"My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.

“This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family.

“As you can imagine, this has taken time. It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment."

Her husband, the Prince of Wales, has since shared a positive health update during a D-Day memorial event in Portsmouth on Wednesday (5 June).

As shown in BBC's coverage of the event, the 41-year-old is seen chatting to a veteran, who asked him if Kate was 'getting better'.

"Yes, she'd have loved to be here," the Prince appeared to have responded.

This comes after the father-of-three was asked about his wife's health during a hospital visit to the Isles of Scilly on 10 May.

"May I ask how Princess Kate is doing?" hospital administrator Tracy Smith asked him.

"She's doing well, thank you," he replied.

"Lovely, and the children as well?" she continued.

"The children are very jealous that I'm here and that they're not here as well."
