Princess Kate of Wales seems to be steadily increasing her royal duties and engagements as she continues her recovery from cancer treatment. The Princess held her second official meeting in just two weeks on November 15th to discuss plans for her annual Christmas Carol concert at Westminster Abbey.
This meeting marks significant progress in Kate's return to work following her battle with cancer earlier this year. She had stepped back from public life after undergoing surgery in January and later receiving a cancer diagnosis that required chemotherapy treatment. In a video message in September, Kate shared that she had completed chemotherapy and was hoping to participate in a few more public engagements in the coming months.
Holding two meetings within a two week period indicates that Kate is actively preparing for a more prominent return to royal duties. Royal commentators see this as an encouraging sign of her ongoing recovery. Veteran royal reporter Phil Dampier said the fact she is planning her Christmas concert which will be broadcast on Christmas Eve is "fantastic news." He believes we may soon see Kate out in public again, possibly even attending Remembrance Sunday events later this month.
Her presence at major royal events like Trooping the Colour in June and Wimbledon in July were some of her first appearances since her hospitalization. But convening meetings to orchestrate her beloved Christmas Carol concert tradition suggests Kate is now ready to take on increased responsibilities. Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said Kate acknowledged the journey has been challenging but she is hopeful about doing more public engagements while prioritizing her health.

In addition to meetings, Kate was also spotted attending church with her family in Scotland last month, a low-key but significant first public appearance since finishing chemotherapy. She joined her husband Prince William and her in-laws King Charles and Queen Camilla at the Balmoral estate on November 13th. It was a relaxing family weekend for the royals after a difficult year where both Charles and Kate underwent cancer treatment.
On November 19th, the King and Queen were back in Scotland celebrating 25 years of the Scottish Parliament. They will now return to London to fulfill upcoming autumn engagements before traveling to Australia and Samoa next month. Their overseas tour schedule has been designed with consideration for the King's ongoing recovery from an undisclosed cancer.

All signs point to Kate making a gradual but impactful return to high-profile royal duties in the coming weeks. Her presence supporting other members of the royal family at events like Remembrance Sunday would carry special significance given her health journey. Kate seems determined to resume her responsibilities as Princess of Wales following her battle with cancer. Her recent actions indicate she feels ready to take the next step in her recovery through resuming a full public role.

It shows the Prince and Princess of Wales playing on the beach in Norfolk with their three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Unlike formal appearances, this footage captures them in relaxed, everyday moments of affection and laughter together.
At the heart of the video, Kate reflects on the importance of love and being loved. And her bond with William is clearly on display through tender touches, hugs and kisses - a more intimate side rarely seen in public due to their professional demeanor.
While fans delighted in these affectionate glimpses, it was Princess Charlotte's reaction that truly stole the show. In one amusing moment, the camera catches 9-year-old Charlotte's face of mock disgust as she witnesses her parents cuddling on the beach. Younger brother Louis finds it funny, but Charlotte appears thoroughly embarrassed by the public display.
