Earlier this month, Kardashian joined in on the public scrutiny about the Princess of Wales' health and whereabouts, as after undergoing abdominal surgery in January, she was only spotted out a few times. On those occasions, the public thought she looked a little different, sparking conspiracy theories she had been replaced by a body double.

On March 16, the mother-of-four posted a few glam photos of herself alongside the caption, "On my way to go find Kate."

Kate shared details of her medical woes in a social media video on March 22.

"In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London, and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful," she shared. "However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment."

Kate admitted the diagnosis came as a "huge shock," but Prince William has been by her side every step of the way.

"We hope that you will understand that, as a family, we now need some time, space and privacy while I complete my treatment," she continued. "My work has always brought me a deep sense of joy, and I look forward to being back when I am able β€” but for now, I must focus on making a full recovery."
