God save the King, Charles III

I bloody knew it! Still, good luck to her. Nasty blow at 42.

[voice]

At last baloo's got something in common with royalty, shitting in a bag.

[perrykneeham]

She is looking painfully thin. That's where the similarity ends.

I'm bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Back in the hills tomorrow as Mrs. B has the girls coming for lunch. We'll see, they're both good friends of mine, but it's usually best to do the niceties and leave the womenfolk to their thing.

Thinking about it, my money would be on ovarian/cervical CA, elective abdo surgeries at that age is usually a tubal ligation or a hysterectomy, they said they found something when they opened her up and probably sent it for cytology and it came back showing cancer.

I did say “abdominal surgery” was clearly just covering up something and was more likely gynaecological.

With her cancer she's outsmarted and utterly defeated the left.

[mids]

Oh. What a wonderful woman.

[perrykneeham]

Funny how her speaking voice had taken on that distinctive Windsor cadence. Still, she's probably been hanging around with dem royalty for almost as long as she wasn't now, so it's bound to have rubbed off.

El Pais are convinced that it's a gynaecological problem: "Kate Middleton revela que tiene cáncer y recibe tratamiento de quimioterapia"

Ah. Bodyshaming white women with the cancer. Misogynblanc.

The racist double standards are sending Mids doolally.

Have you heard the term “preventative chemo” before? If she has cancer already isn’t the chemo a response to that?

[perrykneeham]

I think there's a lot of careful use of words going on TBH. If you've got the sort of problem that requires major abdominal surgery, I suspect they're going to be thoroughly unsurprised to find that it's cancer.

[flatandy]

Away from the comedy side of the messaging incompetence, and ignoring Willy’s bit on the side:

I’m guessing hysterectomy or fibroids, and they found something cancery in there and hope they got it all out but want to make sure by chemo-ing the sh*t out of it. Her hair looks completely fake in the vid - you can never know if they spent thousands on a very good hairdresser but wouldn’t be surprised if it was full blown cancer-wig.

It is weird that they can’t admit to her womb no longer being functional as a vessel for future heirs, but the royals are weird.

[perrykneeham]

I reckon that if this was waterworks, we'd know all about it. My money's on less palatable stuff. Stylish, but not for everyone.

It's a term used if they think they got all the cancer during tho opp, it's given just in case there are cancer cells left hanging about, they give you chemo to prevent it reoccurring

[voice]

Tbf hair loss from chemo is not universal largely depends on what chemo drug (there are a large number) they are giving you. It's very common when treating breast cancer but not so much with bowel and bladder cancer for example

[perrykneeham]

I wonder if there's anything to the Will's wandering willy rumours. You'd think he would be mad, but there's nowt so queer as folk.

There's form, of course. His Dad and Grandad were both unfaithful, so maybe they think that's the deal. I suppose that there's always plenty of temptation, especially after a decade or so of tapping Old Faithful.

[voice]

Kate's job is done, a heir and a spare.

I'm sure Willys willy has a lot of opportunities to wander
