- CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta weighs in on the Princess of Wales' cancer diagnosis. Doctors found the cancer following a "major abdominal surgery," according to a statement released by Kensington Palace. #CatherinePrincessofWales #KateMiddleton #Royalfamily #Chemotherapy #CNN #News
She had to tell her medical condition because the tabloids were going insane. Sucks she could not keep this private as it's no ones business but hers
Royals have to disclose their condition. They use the peoples money for their function.
And here, in the US, a certain military general got roasted for trying to keep his private and yet it was the Republicans who did the roasting. Go figure.
The ways and places I could take this, but I’ll just have a bunch of people with no life defending something and something they truly know nothing about, just like me;);)
I agree
This is ridiculous. The best thing she’s done so far is come out about it. We don’t have to know the details of her cancer. But just saying that she had it gives her the support she deserves from the public. She is the public face of their monarchy. There’s only so much privacy she can demand. She can keep the laparoscopy to herself but the basic diagnosis was the right thing to reveal.
I had major abdominal surgery at 33 for a bowel resegment, colon cancer was found, and removed. After a month of recovery I started 9mo's of Folfox chemotherapy. That was over 10yrs ago. I'm not saying that is what Kate has but I do sympathize. Important fact chemo is accumulative so each treatment is profoundly harder than the last, it's exhausting physically and mentally convincing yourself to go to another round of chemo after being told the cancer was removed. You do for the people you love. I'm glad Kate has 3 kids who love her and I hope she has a speedy recovery
Thank you.
💙💙💙
Thank you for sharing. 😢❤️🩹
Hope you are well and in good health now. God bless.
❤
As a cancer patient myself, for a layman the word preventative means they found some cancer cells and are giving chemo as an adjuvant. I knew what she meant.
Same understanding. Gupta’s splitting hairs. And of course the Princess would have wanted to use the least scary term for the general public.
❤️🩹God Bless you on full recovery & forever remission🙏🏼❤️🩹🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing, and I wish you health and happiness. xx💜
@@chicgal3 Hear, hear! We are all blessing her from afar!
so did I, wish they would leave her alone,
Princess Kate get well soon. .. our prayers for your fast recovery. God bless you and King Charles
Greetings
Her own medical issue. It's her right to keep all of her medical history private.
They are coming out with a statement because someone tried to access her medical records about the surgery.
No as the future Queen she does not have a right to privacy
@@phazeellis2902bs she is not the queen yet and all that would matter is if this was about William !
@phazeellis2902 She has a right to privacy and medical privacy. Just like everyone does.
Please just let her be!. For heavens sake there are young children to be considered.you don't need any more information. It is between the Princess and her medical team and those who she CHOOSES TO SHARE IT WITH. BASTA!
Dr. Gupta NOTHING ELSE NEEDS TO BE ANSWERED IN ANY WAY. It's between Catherine, her doctors & William, her husband, if she so chooses. FULL STOP!!!
Perhaps we could check into the family background of reporters and nosey Drs to see if we can find some juicy medical history to share with the public who spend there whole lives minding every one else's business than their own. No excuse for bottom feeding behaviour! NON WHAT SO EVER!!!!!!!
He fails to respond to what the Princess said that the surgery was a great success, and post op testing revealed that cancer "HAD BEEN PRESENT", which to me suggests it is no longer present because the surgery was, as she said, " a great success"...thank God
Nothing needs to be answered at all. Leave her alone. Do you go telling other people about your patients illnesses? Your comment is disgusting
Kate is a PUBLIC FIGURE! For people to be curious is NOT out of line. She is very loved and people are worried about her. The public wants to know she will be ok. Frankly if someone is in her status it is natural to be curious. Dr. Gupta is just rying to allay people's qorries without alot of mis-informaion ģetting out there. You give up your expection of privacy when you are a public figure. Sad but that is just the way it is. Thank you Dr. Gupta for your professional opinion to 'quash' rumors that are expected.
Dr Guppie is on a need to know bases and he don't need to know. What is it with 'Mericans and their busy body iintrusiveness?
Prayers for precious Princess 🙏
My oncologist said I needed preventative chemotherapy Dr gupta. He's the most respected oncologist in south Australia.
South Australia 😅
@@nalinisharma5706let’s see how you go when you’re diagnosed.
Absolutely right. It is a medical protocol in many countries but it would seem the US has never heard of it and so people are getting hysterical over it when Catherine was very clear about what has happened and what she was doing. I hope you are doing well and all recovered now.
@@peonypink9149 thankyou xxx
@@peonypink9149 No one kills cells that are not cancerous. That's why we DON't do it in the U.S. If you are giving someone that much toxicity it would make sense that its being used for cancerous cells.
Praying for Divine Healing for Kate.
Leave her alone. Show the same dignity Her Royal Highness has shown.
She owes the country full disclosure or she should pass in the pay
Much love to Kate .. William and their children ♥️
Leave the poor woman alone!
Show some respect!
She ain't poor.
@@jag1963 you've interpreted the word poor in the wrong context
We need full information.
@user-xk4jv3fi1z She is from a royal family, and that means no privacy. Even when she skips lunch, we must know. Just kidding!
@@benardmakori6924actually you don’t need any information. Catherine has graciously shared some information because she is a public figure and she also has the same legal protection under UK law regarding medical privacy. You don’t need to know anything more than Catherine’s clear explanation of her diagnosis, treatment and that she is having time off while she comforts her young children.
If you’re after conspiracy theories try Roswell and Area 51 to keep yourself busy.
Dr Gupta, no one needs to provide any more information regarding the Princess of Wales health. As a physician you of all people should know that.
Get real! These people have a lot of power over my life! They sacked the prime minister I voted for in 1975. Some of my taxes go to them EVERY YEAR! And you say we don’t have a right to know!!!! How dare you!
@@dimitrabouzalas3090 I dare because her health is her private business. You're a twit if you think your £1 a month has bought you the right to know anything about their health. Rights. Rights. Rights. Bleating about those probably took you far in life.
This DR. Is out of turn ! He is not her personal Doctor . It is NONE OF HIS BUSINESS! It is also none of anyone else’s business! HE HAS NO RIGHT TO SPEAK ABOUT HER CONDITION. Dr , I suggest you do not speculate about something you are missing full information on & suggest grow some scruples & respect for patients that are not even yours! I can say if I others ever had Cancer they would be wise to pick a different doctor than you as you have proven that you have the morals & ethics of a Scally wag. SHUT UP & RESPECT THIS PATIENT’S RIGHT TO PRIVACY. YOUR NOT AUTHORIZED TO SPEAK FOR HER .
@@dimitrabouzalas3090the taxes do? Dang; what percentage? Does it say like Royal tax or sone bs
She's a public figure and you give up your right to privacy quite a bit. The real problem is the more one keeps any condition like this private just like Secretary of the defense Austin it does not help in your healing process. And in her case that is the abdomen it is the power center of your whole being it is the center of Choice versus no choice and there's a lot of anger that goes with that when you feel no choice which could be covered up by a lot of fear. She really needs to get an open mind and I understand William has a bad temper and he's got so much baggage from his mother Emmett three-ring Circus the boys were brought up with their father who was so untoward in his behavior plus I read recently Princess Diana had so much stress in her own family paid her brother went off to a prep school and was like many of the boys sadistically abused, bloody buttocks and nobody stopped it and Diana tried to take care of her brother when he was home to a certain extent and of course always worried about him. So of course she was very young and a virgin and that's what the Prince Charles wanted even though he was a running around selling his Wild Oats and having this ongoing relationship with Camille I mean it's all very sick really and so guess what it's going to make her sick it goes on to the DNA and whatever happened between William and Harry and all that mess. Let's hope she finds someone who will listen to her grief and guilt because she has many grief lost issues just in this lifetime. And all that history with the monarchy, time for the monarchy to go. It is all l u d i c r o u s outdated old Paradigm stuff!
I'm 4 years out with cancer and trust me the doctors are informing her of everything she needs to know they will keep nothing from her what she decides to share with the public is between her and her family and I don't blame her she needs to take care of her right now as well as herself! If you're not her primary care physician then you really don't need to get to know all this about her cancer it is her business let her do her and you do you okay! Just wish her well and pray for her.
Well don’t treat the public like fools, there wouldn’t be any speculation…… from dodgy pics, to ‘robotic’ footage!!!!
The public has no "right" to Catherine's very private health status. Butt out!
Wow. At this point, I believe people like you care less than the rest of us trying to figure this out. If you think they've told you the truth about her condition, or her wellbeing, you live in a fantasy world. Good luck with that. The video of her addressing her cancer was 100% AI.
We don’t want her private medical info. We want proof of life. Big difference.
@@kookyjoeb5524 Amen!!! 👏🏼
My husband is a doctor and when I told him about Kate’s message about preventative chemo he also said they do not use chemo as a preventative measure. He also said she has cancer and that would be the only reason for administering chemo. I wish her the best and a speedy recovery 🙏🏼
Yes. This. We don’t administer chemo without cancer being diagnosed and present. There is no such thing as preventive chemo. Chemo is usually a second or third line treatment along side surgery, radiation and immunotherapy.
Preventive indicates a habit to prevent ever getting it. IE: using sunscreen daily to prevent skin cancer.
Radiation would be more common for preventing.
And Catherine said they found cancerous cells. What is hard to understand about that. Catherine is having chemo to stop it coming back. It is a medical protocol used in a number of different countries so what Catherine said is correct.
One person said that maybe your magic would work better if you put hair and nails into earth (vitamins and minerals for earth, depleted earth because we eat what is grown on earth, use wood etc, walk on earth... who knows... pay taxes )... Vegetarian food only. Wars should be forbidden to begin with...
What it means is that they surgically removed a mass, cells, etc and upon biopsing whatever was removed, the results came back as having been cancerous. Although it was surgically removed, a round of chemo is given to the patient to make sure there isn't further growth of the same cancerous cells that were already surgically removed; that's why it is called preventive or adjuvent chemo. I hope that helps clarify what it means. Any doctor or person may confirm this information with an oncologist or cancer treatment center who are really the ones who are well versed on this topic. I am shocked that this Dr.Gupta is saying whatever he is saying & that the media continues to dissect this woman's private medical situation. I am shocked that many doctors are even publicly putting their 2 cents on this. In medicine is pretty much the same as any other field, a mechanical engineer is going to know little about what a chemical engineer knows. A cardiologist is going to know very little about what an urologist knows & vice versa. Once doctors go into their individual specialties, they are as clueless about those other fields as the rest of us. I have been in the medical field for 25 years now, so I feel very disappointed because all these medical experts should know better than to be discussing this woman's case. She needs to be given her privacy really.
I wish her and her family strength and privacy. Thanks for the update.❤
Get yourself a life and worry about that. Start by switching off CNN Fake News propaganda channel.
Prayers and strength for Princess Kate and family.
My mother was given PREVENTIVE CHEMO after surgery to cut out Non-Hopkins Lymphoma in her small intestine. They cut out all the cancer. This was in 2008. We were told that it would prevent the cancer from returning. Sadly, in 2012 she passed away from chemo induced leukemia. We weren't warned about that. I think they gave it to her for the money.
The world/media is NOT going to leave her alone. That's the sad part. When she signed up for the role, that comes with it, no matter what. She's in a palace with guards, so her privacy is protected for now. All she can do it take care of herself and ignore outsiders.
Because her life isn't private. SHe lives off of the people. If she wants a private life she should get a job.
I don't think she owes us any answers. I feel like it's none of my business. When and if she wants to talk about it she will.
I totally agree with you 💯
So do I!!!
She's using a term that is understood more by laypeople. She isn't speaking to doctors. It's none of our business what type of cancer, the staging, nor her treatment. I wish her well. Leave her alone. She has small children. The family deserves peace and time to heal IF that's possible.
Well said. Absolutely right. All of it is so unnecessary.

Yes she does. The entire royal family are public property. Sadly people want them to fulfill childish fantasies from princess fairy tales.

@@eddiestorey9633
Yeah that’s what’s important considering what the topic is about right? Somethings wrong with you
Sad to hear such news. There’s enough stress without badgering the woman for her choice of words. Maybe she can not accept the full terminology yet. Many Blessings To you Kate and your family. Stay strong, as I know yall will
Exactly! What I got out of it was that the surgery was successful but afterwards they detected cancerous cells. Chemotherapy has been recommended to prevent the spread and eliminate the cancer at its point of origin.
Shocked we haven't heard snark about her wardrobe, hair, makeup etc. Ppl are petty af
@@cindyhoffman5547absolutely right. And yet people persist. It’s disgraceful.
@@cail171they absolutely are. Don’t worry- the ‘sugars’ were getting stuck into Catherine about her too and claiming it was all AI. Some people desperately need help…
Catherine was clear in her explanation. She gave a short video statement and explained what the chemo was for so it would be easily understood. That was all people needed. It wasn’t a medical lecture and Catherine didn’t need to reveal that under UK law regarding medical privacy.
Kate explained her situation the best way she could or knew how. She is not the doctor! She only did it because of her disappearance from the public eye which gave way to a bunch of insane speculations. GET WELL, dear lady. ❤
There is no need for answers or explanations to leave her alone for speed recovery and privacy. God bless Princess of Wales and Prince of Wales and their young family.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Greetings, how are you doing today and how is the weather conditions over there
Preventative chemo isn’t that hard to figure out. 🙄 she said the surgery was successful meaning they got the cancer. Most times when that happens they still get chemo to PREVENT a reoccurrence. That happened with my mom. She had a rare uterine cancer. They got it all but wanted her to get both chemo and radiation treatments.
No, the surgery was not for the cancer. They found out she has cancer at the follow up. Nobody undergoes chemo or radiation if the doctors "got it all".
The surgery was not for the cancer. They found out she has cancer after the operation. Nobody undergoes chemo and radiation if the doctors "got it all".
Thank you for explaining this so much better. I hope your Mom is recovered. God bless you ❤
I heard the surgery was not for cancer. The cancer was discovered during the surgery.
No. First, its impossible to know if they got everything or not. Secondly, whether or not they give chemo depends on the staging of the cancer. It's extremely hard on the body and isn't just handed out to everyone who gets cancer.
What he is saying is absolutely true. There is no such thing as, "Preventative Chemotherapy." That is all that he is saying.
Preventive chemo is a treatment, known formally as adjuvant chemotherapy, is a course of anti-cancer drugs that is given to mop up any cancer cells that might remain in the body after primary cancer treatment, which is usually surgical removal of a tumour.
In a nutshell this is what most likely occurred to Kate: She had surgery to remove a tumor that was not thought to be cancerous. The tumor was biopsied & turned out to be cancerous after all. Although it had been completely surgically removed, the medical protocol is to give the patient a round of chemo to decrease the risk of any cancer cells growing again or kill any lingering ones which are so small that are impossible to be detected by scans or anything else. So that's what it means that she is receiving preventive chemo. As a physician, Dr.Gupta should know that, but if he is not an oncologist then he might not be aware of terminology used to explain things to patients in a way that makes sense to them.
@@jessicajimenez986I don’t give him the benefit of the doubt like you. My dad had colon cancer that hadn’t spread outside of his colon. After surgery he had chemo and radiation just in case they missed any cancer cells. Dr. Gupta knows exactly what she meant.
People are so touch feels about her.
Nice to hear an actual expert talking instead of someone with a certificate from the university of socal media.
If the expert had any ethics he wouldn’t participate at all. He knows he doesn’t have the medical information to answer the questions he knows will be asked so he speculates instead. In countries other than the US having chemotherapy to stop I cancer returning is a medical protocol. How Catherine explained her treatment is correct. She explained it in plain language in a short video message as it wasn’t a medical lecture. The question is- would this doctor speculate and discuss a patient of his this way? Catherine is legally entitled to medical privacy the same as everyone else in the UK under UK law.
I wish her the very best. This has to be difficult to manage privately as a member of the royal family, but I hope the media will back off and allow her to heal.
High time for the British media to check themselves, all of us are human too.
Quite vicious they are.
@@filet-mignonthey’re cold-blooded in pursuit of a line of news and their moment of glory
@@filet-mignon I think our American media has been worse. Anything to make money, right? 🙄😞
@@filet-mignonI think you’ll find much of the hysteria is the American media - particularly around the differences between the US and UK medical protocols which are leading some people to say Catherine’s ‘story doesn’t ad up’ - which is not true..
@@silencedogood9747unfortunately it looks like the 3 people who tried to access Catherine’s private medical records were being promised $$$ from an American media organisation. Criminal investigation is underway so we’ll probably know more if they went far enough in trying access the information and charges are laid … a very sordid situation.
I just wish the media would leave her alone, she's entitled to keep this to herself & her family!! God Bless you Kate! I'm so sorry & will be praying for you!!

So then she needs to support herself and stop asking everyone whose business it isn't to support her. She's not entitled to anything. But to get a job and support herself.
I am someone who had cancer and with the help of my faith in Christ and the helo of a great medical team, I am an overcomer. There is no such thing as preventative chemotherapy. I said that to friends and they dismissed it. Thank God Dr. Gupta clarified it.

Exactly. Chemotherapy uses very strong medication with highly toxic side affects and would only be used to kill off cancer cells and further prevent the reoccurrence of same. 🙏🙏🙏💕
Praying for Kate, her children and Will. May God continue to bless you and give you strength!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Amen ❤
God please give this lovely woman a full recovery. Amen❤
Strange but true DR. Gupta it is a term we use in our Country....when cancer is determined after an operation. and the medical team feel they have removed everything, patients are still treated to make sure there will be cleared...hence preventative chemotherapy
He's American. He doesn't get it. He thinks the only words used are the ones he knows. Yes adjunctive is also used, but not ONLY used
Yeah, I thought the same thing. I've certainly heard and understand what preventative chemo means. The WHO uses the term and various well-respected scholarly journals have published medical articles that talk about preventative chemo. The speculation of Dr. Gupta is ridiculous here, and on top of that calling out something like her use of the term "preventative chemotherapy" to increase speculation is so disrespectful. Thanks for speaking up about this!
@@jonap5740true. Catherine’s message was given in plain language in a short video message- it wasn’t a medical lecture and she explained the chemo’s purpose. This whole speculation is ridiculous.
I also have had chemo and have heard the term preventative chemo. I am also an American, so just because this Doctor doesn't know about it does not mean it does not exist. And you do get tired and just don't want to have a lot of company or go out. I have been this way since the epidemic started and am just now starting to get my strength back. Not everyone is affected the same way.

I wish her full recovery 🙏🏼
I wish her a full recovery 🙏🏻
I was offered preventative chemotherapy.. "The use of certain drugs or other substances to help lower a person's risk of developing cancer or keep it from coming back." That was in the Mid- West in a Breast Cancer Women's Center.
PLEASE!!!! the British Health care protocols are different, no one has the right to state that "Preventative Chemotherapy" is not a valid medical protocol. It just leaves doors open for speculation and misunderstanding.
Thank you for explaining this so much better
I had a chemo wash after cervical cancer as a preventative measure. 2001 in the UK. Again not saying that is what she has and it was a long time ago ...things change! However preventative chemo exists.
It is NOT a medical term.
I'm from the UK and I have heard several people say that they have had 'preventative chemotherapy'. It might not be a technical medical term in some countries or some circles but it appears that in the UK it means that you have treatment to reduce the risk of it coming back once its been removed from somewhere in your body.
@@MissAndDav thank you for explaining this so well. Here in America we have 💩 healthcare and it’s prohibited from your truth. Medicare for all is our dream
Hope she's OK , I really like her
Doesn’t anyone realize that Princess Catherine’s medical information is none of their freaking business?
We don't need the details. She has Cancer and that's enough in and of itself. Its now time for her to get the best care possible and heal. I know she's a public figure but at the end of the day she is Human, let her be.
"Questions that need to be answered".. It's cancer! What else do you want to know?? It's getting out of control! Just leave her alone! That is a very private matter and she needs to be focused on her recovery for God's sake
Agreed.
I concur. Let her be. No more questions. Just because she's royalty, doesn't mean the public needs to know everything. No more questions. She doesn't have to answer anymore questions.
Exactly so, in trying to answer the question
asked..his wise reply was without more detail
/ information, it was unanswerable or even to speculate. He elucidated on the report given.
He didn't suggest to know further than the
information already made public.
He was being helpful, respectable, kind and compassionate.
The intimation to ask questions wasn't literal just explaining why his answer was lacking sunbstance with minimal detail.
A good Doctor as also hejpful to others who
are also going through the same experiences.
well its not cancer obviously because if it WAS cancer the term 'preventative' would not be used. making a comment correcting peoples warped interpretation of language is not a request for more information.
@@marionrichards4051he showed a lack of ethics engaging in this at all. It was pointless. He knew he didn’t have enough information and he was able to predict what he would be asked. Would he have speculated like this on one of his own patients? He said her medical team haven’t provided any information - of course they haven’t. They aren’t allowed too under UK law. Catherine was clear about the amount of information she released and the timeline. There is no point in a doctor speculating at all. It doesn’t help other people with cancer and it is simply leading to further speculation. Catherine is protected under UK law and entitled to the same level of medical privacy as everyone else in the UK. That doctor needs to stop.
Get well soon Princess 🙏
Praying for Kate, William, and their family 🌼🌸🏵️🌷
She deserves her privacy. She told what she wanted. That should be enough
😮
First, leave the woman alone. Cancer is horrendous to fight. People poking into her business adds stress she doesn’t need. Second, FFS, why is this news? Why are we so enthralled with a monarchy?
1st of all, what does the House of Windsor do for the great People of Britania?
Long Live the Princess (from America).
People would have left her alone if they had simply stayed quite when they said we wouldn’t hear from her until Easter. But out fake pictures is going to make people talk.
I feel for Kate, I had the best experience you can hope for with chemo and it still kicked my ass. But she is a public figure living off of her subjects. This is the unfortunate trade off here
TRUE people acting like a bunch of rich folks are the most interesting bunch on the planet
LEAVE HER ALONE. UGH
Sadly, in this chaotic world, and the often disgusting thing we call social media, everything seems to make it everyone's business.
All of us watching and using it are guilty in some fashion. However, it's the news outlets, t@bloids, people who have nothing better to do with their lives and their incessant prying are the ones that ruin it.
I wish you all the best Kate 🙏♥️🙏
Poor Kate. The poor family. I can't believe bullying her was a Tiktok trend. She won me over with her Christmas special after Philip was lost. I love Kate😢
Gosh people, leave her alone.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Switch off CNN Fake News then. Simple.
Well said Amanda.
Switch off CNN Fake News and get yourselves a life of your own to worry about.

Dear Princess Kate, I'm sending prayers for you and your family. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I have a friend who had a hysterectomy. Cancer was found, but was localized. She had several rounds of chemo in case any cells had got in her bloodstream. That was around 2008 and she is fine today.
I have heard the term preventative chemo before. I have family members after surgery to have found the part removed was cancerous. But all is out with the surgery. Preventative technically is a way to say now we need to be sure its gone and cant start again.
Thank you for explaining this term much better
This is not preventive. It’s still treatment to stop any free floating cancer cells from metastasizing. Those are still cancer cells that exist and need to be treated. It’s not preventive.
I would think it would be radiation if they got all the cancer out in the surgery and wanted to prevent it from coming back. Doesn't really make sense she's having chemo.
That is exactly right and it is a medical protocol in many countries. It’s ridiculous people are getting hysterical over Catherine explaining what her chemo is for. She was very clear, it’s a legitimate medical protocol and that’s it.
That's not preventative thats termed adjuvant.
God bless and heal her. Bring her and her family peace.
I pray she will be well. I lost my best friend to cancer. She had it removed - They said they got it all - no chemo was needed. It came back about 6 months later. Was terrible losing her.
My best wishes to the wonderful Catherine, Princess of Wales 💖💖💖💖💖
Prayers to her and her family. 🙏
I HOPE SHE LIVES A LONG LIFE. GOD BLESS HER

Dr Gupta-what an awful invasion of privacy coming from a doctor.
As a Dr he should know that HIPPA rights are in place. This man is a pathetic human being and I feel sorry for his patients if he has any.
@@dortheapugsley5528 As a doctor he has professional duty to challenge misinformation and misrepresentation of medical treatments to mislead the public. There is no such thing as "preventive chemotherapy"
@@dortheapugsley5528absolutely right. In the UK Catherine has a legal right to medical privacy. I can’t believe he actually participated knowing he didn’t have information to answer the questions and just putting further speculation out there without an understanding of UK medical protocols. It was unethical.
Absolutely right Linda.
Linda, this is a medical correspondent who is being interviewed. He, and others, will have speculated about quite a few public figures - it's the nature of his job.
Did you care when others were under scrutiny or is it just because it's Kate Windsor and you believe she should be given special treatment?
I sincerely hope you never read articles or listen to or view news stories about Kate - because they are all intrusive and deny her the right to privacy. You don't get to take the moral high ground.
No matter what her condition, she’s going to put up a brave front for her family and for the media that reports to the world. I wish her the best.
Greetings, how are you doing today and how is the weather conditions over there
Why can’t they leave this family alone? Why should the public receive private health information about any woman?
Leave the lady alone. Lets focus on the bs we got going on here.
Focus on reality by switching off CNN Fake News.
Princess Kathryn I'm hoping for some much needed privacy and rest for you while you make a full recovery . ❤❤❤ from the USA
The term preventative chemotherapy was used by drs when a treatment plan was laid out for my husband who had cancer. He never wanted to discuss his condition with anyone else , except for his loved ones, it’s appalling that they are making the princesses talk about her condition to the whole world and this dr should know better than suggest we should be given more information in this case. I don’t think I would choose such an insensitive practitioner as my dr.
No-one outside of the royal family and Kate’s medical team had to get involved especially not tabloids or newspapers. Leave her alone. Let her recover in peace!
She is so pretty and a real person like princess Diana 💕
I so hope she has an easy, successful recovery. William lost one lady in his life at an early age. I hope his and Kate's kids won't have to go through that. God bless for a long life with the family.
People should be more empathetic to Kate & her family... Also, they have their right to privacy... After all, stress produces more Cancer cells!...
So, please let this lady recover so that she can try to live her life & be here to raise her children ...
My thoughts & prayers are with Kate, William, & their family❤😊
So then she needs to support herself and stop asking everyone whose business it isn't to support her.
May Princess Catherine be well, May Princess Catherine be peaceful, May Princess Catherine be surrounded by the love and support of her family and friends, May Princess Catherine find comfort and solace in her process of recovering. ❤❤❤
It IS given preventively. When some tissue is removed and the pathologist finds nothing or finds that cancer is removed " completely " they know the tiny cancer cells break loose with the disturbance of surgery so giving chemo makes double certain to keep it from spreading invisibly
Dr. Gupta is correct. That’s not preventive. It’s actually treating cancer after it’s diagnosed. The term preventive indicates preventing cancer before it starts. You are stating it already is there and chemo is used to treat free floating cancer cells. That’s not preventive. It’s the second line TREATMENT.
@@Mb2IseeUin other countries beside the US the medical protocols are different and chemo explained and given as preventative is correct. People getting hysterical over the way Catherine explained her diagnosis is ridiculous. She explained there were cancer cells and she is having chemo to prevent the cancer from coming back in a short video message that was not a medical lecture.
Yes it is hall of veils…
There’s no such thing as “pathologist finds nothing” and the person is still getting chemo. That’s misinformation. Do you think people with benign tumors are given chemo? The answer is NO!
This is very sad. Kate is the best royal since Diana. Wishing her a full recovery.
We all need to leave Kate and her family alone to heal, and pray for her and their wellness. 💕🙏💙🇺🇦
Beautiful,genuine, most caring lady and my prayers on full recovery….🙏
Hang in there Kate you will beat this 😊
All my cancer was removed. I still had 3 rounds of chemo just in case there were other cancer cells floating around. Sounds preventative to me.
Yes, it is a medical protocol in many countries. Just maybe not in the US where Catherine’s explanation seems to be getting everybody heightened.
@@peonypink9149 It's not getting anyone in the U.S. heightened because she just explained what Americans are saying.
Dr. Gupta is right; the term is adjuvant chemotherapy. Chemo is not given in the complete absence of a cancer diagnosis. Adjuvant chemotherapy is done after surgery to remove a tumor to "mop up" any remaining cancer cells.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is chemo used before surgery in cases where it can shrink a tumor so less aggressive surgery is needed.
So there could still be cancer cells in her body which is WHY she is getting chemo. There is no absence of cancerous cells with chemo. That would be gross negligence. Your terminology is off.
Prayers for Kate!
Leave the woman alone to live her life. The fact that people can't shut up and continue to intrude is pathetic.😡
Well said.
The last thing she needs right now is for everyone to be talking about her health. Isn’t it bad enough that she was essentially forced to have to reveal her diagnosis after everyone got hysterical over a picture?!?! Prayers for her and her family.🙏♥️
It’s private and nobody’s business, let them navigate without placing additional burdens! I was diagnosed with cancer, it helped me to not tell anyone. Privacy is also healing. She has better medical care than the rest of us, all the help she needs and then some, so she absolutely will get through this. But Kate and only Kate will be the one to determine how to cope.
No questions "need" to be answered for anyone else except those close to Kate.
Praying for her full recovery ❤
Because her life isn't private. SHe lives off of the people. If she wants a private life she should get a job.
This has to be tough on the prince, to have two family members get cancer at the same time.
We forced a statement from a person facing terrible illness and possible death. We got what we asked for, now let's give her privacy. Let's give her love and healing thoughts and let her be.
Greetings, how are you doing today and how is the weather conditions over there
If a cancer is removed they give chemotherapy to make sure it is all gone and therefore, hopefully prevent it from returning. Leave the woman alone, stop speculating, and let her heal in peace.
Lets all pray for her and her family instead of blasting them all over. Her children deserve better than this people.
Praying for you and your family kate
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I hope & pray 2024 brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎 I’m originally from Canada grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
You have to lose something in exchange for these privileges, in this case, privacy. She’s the princess of wales, and her health is not entirely a private matter. It’s her job to do things that most people don’t need to do like showcasing her baby right after labor, and making public announcements like this. You don’t need to worry too much about her, she’s well compensated and she has all kinds of teams to help her.
It doesn't matter who she is and we don't own her it's her private business and upto her how much information she gives and nobody is entitled to know more than that .
@@aprilfisher4947 First of all, they are born to be majesties, highnesses, and you are not. They play by different rules. Second, you have to believe the British royal family is not a bunch of stupid people who would make their own lives unnecessarily hard. They do these things for a reason: to maintain their privileges and relevance. They are not rulers anymore but celebrities-celebrities that can’t sing, dance, or do other tricks. The only thing that keeps them in the limelight is their bloodline, and naturally, their privacies are a big selling point. That’s how they roll. They can quit anytime they want, but most of them don’t, and that tells you something.
Catherine is legally entitled to the same level of medical privacy as everyone else in the UK. Catherine contributes to the RF bringing in £1.5 billion to the UK per/year so she is assisting to prop up the UK economy to the benefit of everyone who lives there. She actually didn’t need to reveal anything but she has and no one is entitled to anything more unless she decides to share it.
@@angiel3693try again. Brand Finance, a 3rd party source reports the RF cost the UK taxpayer £450 million p/year. They bring in £1.5 billion per year to the UK economy. Your description of them as ‘not singing or dancing’, they are ‘celebrities’ and their ‘privacy’ is all they have going for them since they don’t do ‘tricks’ - is very shallow and not accurate. They do an enormous amount of charity and community-oriented work each year in addition to bringing in the tourist dollars. The Prince’s’ Trust has been going since 1976 and between 2006 - 2016 the work focused on young people was valued at £1.4 billion. Idris Elba started his acting career with a grant from the Princes’ Trust and is an ambassador for it.
All the profits from Charles’ products under the Highgrove brand goes to Charity.
Catherine plays a part in contributing to the work done and the money that is returned to the UK economy. So she is entitled to her privacy to undergo treatment and comfort her young children. To stop the insane conspiracy theorists and those who wish her harm, she has revealed a minimal amount of information. She doesn’t have to reveal anymore, she’ll return and get back to work.
@@peonypink9149 Whether it’s financially worthwhile to keep the royals is a controversial topic. Let’s say they do bring in that much money, that’s because they have world wide attention, which is a double bladed sword. You can’t ask the public to only focus on ribbon cuttings, patient huggings but not affairs, divorce, medical problems , drugs, lawsuits… btw you know who enjoy the dramas the most? The UK people, yep, people who live there. No law says they have to reveal her medical records, or showcase their babies right after labor, or talk about their marriage on national tv or publish books, but they voluntarily did all of them anyway~for their OWN benefits.
Prayers for Princess Catherine God Blessings 🙌 🙏 ❤️ ♥️ 💖 💕 🙌 🙏
Greetings, how are you doing today and how is the weather conditions over there
Leave the woman alone. She has a right to her privacy, and has a right to hold onto her dignity. If she is not comfortable sharing what kind of cancer it is/was that’s her choice. Her and her medical team have every right to keep it confidential.. if you’re not there, battling the fight with her then you should have no opinion to how she wins her war! She should be admired as she is going through this with dignity, class, and grace.
Agree, she is going a difficult process and can happen to any one, people should be respect her, it's not easy.
Agreed, there's no such thing as preventative chemotherapy, only adjuvant chemotherapy 👍
The way Catherine explained her chemo is correct and a standard UK protocol as it is in other countries.
Everyone should leave her alone, praying for her full recovery ❤️🩹
Kate should be allowed her privacy. She doesn't owe anyone the right to know any more details.
Greetings, how are you doing today and how is the weather conditions over there
Dr. Gupta is extremely respectful when doing his job as a doctor reporting for CNN. I appreciate his opinion.
It is unethical for him to speculate without the medical information or consent and dismiss a medical protocol used in the UK and other countries. Would he speculate publicly about a patient without the medical information to answer the questions he can predict he’ll be asked and without the knowledge of the UK medical system? He shouldn’t have done it at all. His patients should be nervous.
Wow, are you the Dr's sibbling, partner or their child? If you love Gupta so much why don't you ask him to invade your medical history and disregard your right to medical privacy instead of the Princess's?
I don't understand why this continues. It's her damn personal journey, and she deserves ALL of her privacy.
I was so perturbed when I had cancer n people were meddling to know what was going on in my life.
Catherine needs to heal physically, mentally, n emotionally.
Bless her, her union w William, and her beloved children for going through her diagnosis.🙏🙏🙏
Such Naiveté in these comments. The Royal family is and chooses to be extremely public, and The Princess decided to make a fully public statement and The Princess should expect reciprocal thoughts and comments when she directly opens the door to questions. She could have stayed completely private, and chose not to.
Try again. In response to the patronizing comment. 3 people have tried to access Catherine’s medical records and the word is they were promised payment from a larger American media organisation. A criminal
Investigation is underway so it’s likely Catherine had to make a statement to ensure her news wasn’t broken by a media conglomerate.
Regarding staying quiet. Catherine is entitled to medical privacy under UK law. The conspiracy theorists were out of control with including DV fantasies so Catherine has given the minimal, clear information and told everyone she’s having time off. She’s done the sensible thing in the circumstances.
Only person acting naive is you fool. All people are entitled to medical privacy regardless of their role as a public figure. This is every individual persons explicit right, no exceptions.
Her medical issues are private and not anyone else’s business. She was already basically forced to make a statement and did so graciously, now leave her alone.
She doesn’t need to answer any more questions. Praying for her recovery and her babies
No more questions need to be answered. Be gracious with what you’ve already been given.
🙂
Thousands of other people were also diagnosed, most likely on the same day as she was.... she is NO More important than they are. The ideal of royalty and / or a monarchy is absurd!!!
And Catherine acknowledged others in her statement. She was far more gracious than you. You don’t like the idea of the RF than no one is forcing you to stay so don’t let the door hit you in the butt on the way out….
