Kate has hosted her holiday service for several years, but the celebration will be even more meaningful following her difficult year. Kate announced in March that she was diagnosed with cancer after undergoing a planned abdominal surgery two months prior. She’s taken a step back from her public-facing duties amid her recovery, revealing in September that she completed chemotherapy treatment.

“The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family,” she shared in a statement at the time. “Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown. … This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved.”

Kate noted that her “path to healing and full recovery is long,” adding that she looked “forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.” She further thanked her supporters for their “kindness, empathy and compassion” throughout her health battle.
