King Charles on Friday publicly acknowledged his daughter-in-law, Princess of Wales’ cancer diagnosis and said that he is “so proud” of her courage for informing the public of her condition.

A statement released Friday evening by the Buckingham Palace was quoted by The Mirror UK, “His Majesty is ‘so proud of Catherine for her courage in speaking as she did’. Following their time in hospital together, HM has ‘remained in the closest contact with this beloved daughter-in-law throughout the past weeks’.
