Kensington Palace has posted thank you cards to members of the public who sent their well wishes to the Princess of Wales as she undergoes chemotherapy.
Kate, 42, announced via an emotional video message at the end of March that she is in the early stages of treatment after a cancer diagnosis.
During the clip, the future Queen said it had been an ‘incredibly tough couple of months’ for her family but she was ‘well and getting stronger every day’.
Since the public has found out about the Princess’ health struggle, other working royals who have stepped in have been given cards and notes to give to Kate. Royal fans have also sent them to the Palace.
One woman received a letter from the Palace on Saturday after she sent a card to Kate wishing her the best after hearing that she was undergoing abdominal surgery in January.

The short note, which is printed on card and features the Palace’s letterhead on the top, read: ‘Thank you for your kind well wishes to Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales.
‘Your thoughtful gesture is very much appreciated.’
The palace usually sends out cards on special occasions such as birthdays and Christmas, when they receive correspondence from royal fans.
The postcard was left blank, which is unusual because correspondence from the Royal Family usually comes with a picture.
Allex Marie took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to express her gratitude for the note, adding that she would ‘treasure this my entire life.’
She wrote: ‘Back in January when we were informed our beautiful Princess of Wales had undergone surgery I sent her a card with our (my family and I) sincerest best wishes for healing and of course an abundance of love.
‘Today I received this beautiful acknowledgement and I can honestly say I shall treasure this my entire life.
‘The envelope has Kensington Palace on the back lol hubby [sic] thought he was going to have to get his suit out for a garden party (silly him) but he is just as blown away as I am to received this beautiful, and much treasured card.
‘Continued prayers and healing to our beautiful Princess of Wales.’
Others also posted the note and wished Kate would get well soon, adding that they would thankful for the note.

The mother-of-three was at the centre of conspiracy theories that swirled around online which questioned her disappearance after having surgery, despite the palace stating that she needed time to recover from her operation at the start of the year.
Speaking to PEOPLE, a former Palace aide said the level of interest in Kate’s health was a ‘complex reaction’.
They explained: ‘There was no malintent. But it unleashed a pent-up feeling that people wanted information — unfortunately, that’s the curse of being a modern royal.’
King Charles has also been diagnosed with cancer after going for a procedure for an enlarged prostate at the same hospital as Kate in January.
At the start of February, Buckingham Palace went public with the news that he was diagnosed with a form of cancer, adding that it is not prostate cancer, but was discovered during his treatment.
He has since praised his daughter-in-law for her courage in speaking about her condition.
‘His Majesty is ‘so proud of Catherine for her courage in speaking as she did’,’ Buckingham Palace said.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex also said: ‘We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace.’
