Princess Kate update after she made her first public appearance since cancer diagnosis at Trooping the Colour

THE Princess of Wales will rest up after being a super trooper for almost three hours this weekend - but could hold work meetings.

Kate, 42, brought joy and relief to the nation as she appeared in a carriage with her three children and on Buckingham Palace balcony with hubby Wills and the King and Queen.

It was the first public engagement for Kate - who is still having preventative cancer treatment - since she appeared with her family at Sandringham last Christmas.

She has been subjected to vile online rumours and speculation despite her cancer diagnosis and plea for privacy.

Kensington Palace confirmed after her exploits on Saturday at the King’s Birthday Parade, which saw her back on full view to millions for almost three hours, she will not join the family at other huge events this week.

The Royal Family will be out in force to hold a spectacular Garter Day at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, today.

In recent years Kate has travelled from the castle to the chapel in a carriage sitting alongside Prince William but instead will rest up.

The King, 75, and Queen, 76, will lead the Royal Family at the five-day Royal Ascot racing which kicks off tomorrow.

Other royals, including the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and Mike and Zara Tindall, will also appear in carriages and the Royal Box.

But the Princess of Wales, who in her statement said she has ‘good days and bad days’ will not attend the festival.

Both events were ruled out before Saturday’s starring role at

Trooping the Colour and in no way seen as a result of her appearance.
William, President of the FA, is jetting to Frankfurt on Thursday to watch England’s group game with Denmark and the following day is his 42nd birthday.

It is thought Kate will spend time with her children and work from home after saying last week she found it a “joy to engage with school life” and “spend personal time on the things that give me energy and positivity”

Last week, Kensington Palace had confirmed that Kate had found comfort working from home despite her ongoing cancer struggle.

It is expected in coming weeks she will hold more meetings with palace staff and those from the Royal Foundation and Centre for Early Childhood.

These meetings will feature in the Court Circular which detail all official work by members of the Royal Family.

A spokesman for the princess said the palace would only give an update on face-to-face work meetings when appropriate.

And despite Kate announcing she hopes to “join a few public engagements over the summer”, the palace has yet to announce or confirm where she will appear next.
