1. Good for her. Can only wish her and her family the best.

2. Like a scene from bloody gladiator , I was waiting on her saying “I will have my vengeance , in this life , or the next!

3. Princess of where? We don’t have a princess in Wales, haven’t for centuries.

4. Very cringe. Who put the hay bail under that tree? It’s all very styled and contrived. I know she’s been sick, but that whole thing is sickeningly self-indulgent and hardly says *please just give us some privacy*.

5. Good on her and all cancer survivors. On another note, what’s the point of this photo set? Is it supposed to convey health, peace, harmony, or just late summer thistle against grey sky? It looks very ordinary and is amongst the most common themes used by junior photographers. Just google “woman in white dress in golden field” and there are 1000s of the same. What’s the point?

7. I’m happy to hear she’s completed her treatment. I wish her well.

8. I’m glad she’s doing well and is positive about it, but this stylised cringe video makes my skin crawl, even more so because of the context and subject matter.

9. Is it cringe? Yes.

   Do I resent her for being able to access the best care when my mother died only two weeks after receiving a diagnosis because she couldn’t even get a GP’s appointment at first and then didn’t fight when told her symptoms must be related to her weight and lingering issues from childbirth? I sure do.

   But she tried to keep the situation private at first and we all know how that turned out. It’s cringe because it isn’t right that anyone should have to share such personal information. If she doesn’t share it, people will fill in the gaps with lies though.

10. I hope shes doing well. Lost my Gran to cancer and my step-dad had a cancer last year and still suffering the after effects.

    But seriously… never climb or sit on log piles, never let your kids climb on log piles. The logs can give way and seriously fuck you up if they start landing on you, its like an avalanche if one gives way.

11. Glad she’s doing better. Super cringe video like what is this supposed to be?

12. This is great news obviously but what in the Center Parcs advert is that video

13. Great news for her and the family.

    Was there a need for the video, though?

14. Have we had any update on the King’s treatment or is that still ongoing?

15. A selfie video would have been enough.

    What does she mean by “doing all I can to stay cancer free”..? Does that feel a bit of an _odd_ thing to anyone else? Like… You have a choice..?

16. See, where are all the people bashing her for saying “please give us some privacy” while posting these clearly staged and styled pictures? Where are all the racists who bashed Megan? Oh right, Kate didn’t commit the horrific sin of being a non-white American.

17. Congratulations, I hope she continues to live a long and happy life.

    God Save the King.
