Brave Kate Middleton ‘planning royal comeback & has several dates in mind for public appearances’ after cancer treatment

PRINCESS Kate is ‘planning a royal comeback and has specific dates in mind’, after undergoing cancer treatment, sources claimed.

The Princess of Wales, 42, has only made two public appearances since announcing her cancer diagnosis in March earlier this year.

Royal fans cheered upon her glamourous arrival at Trooping the Colour in June for King Charles’ official birthday.

The royal mum-of-three was then welcomed with a standing ovation at the men’s Wimbledon final the following month, where she appeared with daughter Princess Charlotte.

In June, Kate released a health update via video message in which she revealed she was “making good progress”, but bravely opened up about “good days and bad days”.

The Princess also bravely shared how she is “not out of the woods yet” and treatment is “ongoing and will be for a few more months”.

Sources close to the royal claim this “still rings true”, as reported by The Times.

It is understood Kate will not be attending a trip with Wills to Cape Town in November for the Earthshot Prize awards

However, while there is no confirmed return date to public duties, insiders say Kate’s comeback is at the forefront of her mind.

Royal aides reported plans are already underway for the Princess’ annual Together at Christmas televised carol service at Westminster Abbey.

And, despite taking a step back from public facing responsibilities, Kate has continued with work behind the scenes.

According to royal sources, the mum-of-three has been conducting more meetings at home, Adelaide Cottage.

She has been spending more time with her private secretary Tom White, assistant private secretary Natalie Burrows and the Waleses’ communications secretary, Lee Thompson.

It is thought the boost in communication is to make plans for Kate’s potential comeback.

This comes after the Princess congratulated the new Chief Scout and said she is “looking forward” to working with him.

As Patron of the Scout Association, Kate sent a message, after Dwayne Fields was appointed to the top role.

Fields, who is the first black Briton to reach the North Pole, took over the Chief Scout position from Bear Grylls, who has served in the role since 2009.

Writing from The Prince and Princess of Wales‘ shared social media accounts, Kate wrote today: “Delighted to welcome @DwayneFields as the new UK Chief Scout.

“The Scouts is such an incredible organisation, teaching #SkillsForLife and making a huge difference to young people across the country.

“Looking forward to working with you!”

It comes as the Prince and Princess of Wales – along with Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six – are said to have spent the summer break at their Norfolk country home Anmer Hall. 

Last week Kate was spotted heading to church with Prince William and Prince George up at Balmoral in Scotland.

Prince William said he has been doing the school runs for his family this year while Kate recovers.

But a pal said he has appeared more relaxed and his diary is packed with more engagements as the summer draws to a close.

Another friend said Wills was “in very good form” at his uncle, Lord Robert Fellowes’, funeral last week.

It seemed any tensions with his estranged brother Prince Harry didn’t phase him at the event – where they “kept their distance” without speaking a word to each other.
