Kate Middleton canceled her attendance at the Ascot parade and caused concern

The Princess of Wales herself deeply regretted not being able to attend this prestigious event since 2023

Kate Middleton  has made headlines again in recent hours after unexpectedly canceling her attendance at one of the most prominent events on the British royal calendar: the Ascot races.

This sudden absence, announced just half an hour before the start of the carriage procession, has raised alarms among royal family followers and fueled rumors about her health.

Concern for Kate is understandable. Since March 22, 2024, when she shared an emotional video in which she revealed her cancer diagnosis, her situation has been closely followed around the world.

After abdominal surgery in January and six months of treatment, the princess has been slowly returning to her official duties. Her return to events such as The Order of the Garter in Windsor, alongside her husband Prince William, led many to believe that her recovery was on the right track.

However, the unexpected decision not to attend Ascot has left many puzzled. According to sources close to Buckingham, Kate Middleton herself deeply regretted not being able to attend this prestigious event, which she has not returned to since 2023. Although her schedule is closely supervised by her team, the princess reportedly chose to prioritize her well-being and avoid overexertion.

At the Ascot races, which represent one of the most important social gatherings for the British aristocracy, Prince William attended alongside his mother-in-law, Carole Middleton. Both witnessed the thrilling victory of jockey William Buick and trainers John and Thady Gosden, in which Ombudsman took the Prince of Wales's Stakes prize. In addition, the traditional carriage procession was led by figures such as golfer Justin Rose and his wife Kate Phillips, as was originally planned for the Princess of Wales.
