She said: “The surgery was successful, however post-operative tests found there was cancer.”

Hours after the news broke, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex issued a brief statement wishing the Princess of Wales and her family “health and healing.”
The couple said they hoped Kate and her family could “do it privately and in peace.”
