Princess Kate set for ‘longest journey’ this summer since announcing cancer diagnosis
The Princess of Wales is expected to make her “longest journey” yet since announcing she had been diagnosed with cancer, as the future Queen is set to join the rest of the royals in Scotland.
Princess Kate has not travelled a lot this year, unless necessary, as she undergoes preventative chemotherapy for an unspecified type of cancer
Now royal sources told the Mail that Kate will likely join her husband, Prince William and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis as they head to Balmoral Castle with the rest of the Firm for their annual summer break.
The Royal Family traditionally travel to the Scottish Highlands every summer to relax in the peaceful countryside.
Kate has largely kept away from the public gaze this year, making only two appearances, one in June for Trooping the Colour and a second one in July for the Wimbledon finals.
Both events took place in London, which is roughly an hour’s drive from Windsor, where she lives with her family.
Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire, on the other hand, is 510 miles away from Adelaide Cottage which could take around nine hours to travel.
The latest news can be seen as the princess making “good progress” with her cancer treatment, the report stressed.
Back in March, the future Queen broke the nation’s heart when she bravely announced in an emotional video message that she had been diagnosed with cancer, following a major abdominal surgery in January.
