In a rare and deeply emotional moment, young Prince Louis has shared a heartbreaking revelation about his mother, Princess Catherine, the Princess of Wales. The news, which has left the public in shock and sorrow, confirms the type of cancer she is bravely battling—abdominal cancer.

Though only seven years old, Prince Louis’s quiet words—shared through a message released by the Royal Family with the help of his father, Prince William—have touched hearts around the world.

“They told me Mummy is sick,” the message read in a gentle, childlike tone. “She has a cancer in her tummy, but the doctors are helping her get better. I love her very much, and I miss her hugs when she’s tired from the medicine.”

The royal family had previously announced Princess Kate’s cancer diagnosis, but out of respect for her privacy and the well-being of their children, the specific type had not been disclosed—until now.

According to a statement from Kensington Palace, the decision to reveal the type of cancer was made with Kate’s approval, as a way to raise awareness and connect with others facing similar battles. The Palace emphasized that Kate is currently undergoing treatment and responding positively to therapy.

Abdominal cancer can refer to several types of cancer that affect organs within the abdominal cavity, such as the stomach, pancreas, or intestines. While the exact details of Kate’s diagnosis remain private, her medical team is said to be “optimistic and committed to a full recovery.”

The inclusion of Prince Louis in this message is both heartbreaking and powerful. Royal experts say it was a carefully considered decision by William and Kate, meant to show the human side of their family’s struggle. “They wanted people to understand how this illness is not only affecting Kate, but also their children—especially young Louis, who is very close to his mother,” a source close to the family shared.

Public reaction to the message has been overwhelming. Messages of support from around the world have poured in, with many parents expressing admiration for how the royal couple is handling such a difficult situation with honesty, grace, and love.

One social media user wrote:
“Hearing this from little Prince Louis broke me. No child should have to understand words like cancer. We are all praying for you, Catherine.”

In these difficult times, the royal family has asked for continued privacy and understanding. Kate is currently resting at home, surrounded by her children and the unwavering support of Prince William. Despite the pain and challenges ahead, the family remains hopeful.

As Prince Louis’s message reminds the world, this is not just a royal health announcement—it’s a story of a mother, a family, and a little boy who wants nothing more than to see his mummy healthy and happy again.
