In light of the Princess of Wales’ recent cancer diagnosis announced on March 22, it’s no surprise that Kate Middleton and Prince William are enduring a difficult time. Amaia Arrieta, the designer behind Amaia London, a luxury children’s label favored by the royal family, shared her thoughts with The Telegraph. While Arrieta takes pride in seeing her designs worn by the royal children, she’s deeply saddened by the turmoil the couple is facing.
“It’s heartbreaking at the moment. I think they are going through hell. I hope they will be back. It’s really personal,” Arrieta expressed.
Arrieta’s sentiments follow a brief health update from the Prince of Wales during his recent visit to Tyne, England. Amidst interacting with locals, Prince William confirmed that Kate was “all doing well,” acknowledging the concern shown by well-wishers.
On March 22, Kate revealed her cancer diagnosis, refraining from disclosing the specific type. Despite initial hopes that her abdominal surgery was cancer-free, post-surgery tests revealed otherwise, prompting her to undergo preventative chemotherapy.
In her statement, Kate explained the delay in informing their children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—about her diagnosis, citing the need for recovery and appropriate explanations. She emphasized her gratitude for William’s unwavering support and the outpouring of love from well-wishers.
As they navigate this challenging journey, the royal couple remains focused on healing and finding strength in each other and the support of their loved ones.
