Kate Middleton, Britain’s Princess of Wales, has reported making good progress with her preventative chemotherapy but cautions she is “not out of the woods” yet. This update comes before her first public appearance on Saturday since surgery confirmed her cancer diagnosis.
In a personal message released on Friday, Kate expressed gratitude for the thousands of supportive messages she received from around the world after announcing her cancer diagnosis in March.
She said the messages have made a world of difference to her and her husband, Prince William, the heir to the throne.
Her improved health means she can make her first public appearance since last December, when she joined other senior royals for the annual Christmas Day church service.
On Saturday morning, Kate, 42, will accompany her three children, Princes George and Louis and Princess Charlotte, in a carriage during “Trooping the Colour,” an annual military parade held in central London to celebrate the monarch’s official birthday.

She will also join King Charles, Queen Camilla, and other senior family members on the Buckingham Palace balcony, the high-profile pinnacle of the event. While Kate hopes to participate in other events this year, aides cautioned that Saturday does not mark a return to a full schedule of work.
