Kate Middleton Just Shared A Rare Message About Her Future Work

While Kate Middleton continues her treatment for cancer, she is also looking ahead to future endeavours for her royal work.

In a new message posted on X (the social media platform formerly known as Twitter), Kate shared a note to British TV show host Dwayne Fields, who was named the new U.K. Chief Scout of youth development organisation Scouts. The Princess became a joint president of Scouts back in 2020, becoming the first woman to hold the position in the non-profit’s history. She works alongside fellow joint president Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent.

Replying to a video message of Fields introducing himself and the work he plans to accomplish under his new role, Kate congratulated the adventurer on his appointment.

'Delighted to welcome @DwayneFields as the new UK Chief Scout,' the royal wrote on X. 'The Scouts is such an incredible organisation, teaching #SkillsForLife and making a huge difference to young people across the country. Looking forward to working with you!'

She signed off the note with 'C,' for Catherine.

Kate has remained largely out of the spotlight since the start of this year. In March, she revealed that she had been diagnosed with cancer and would be undergoing 'preventative chemotherapy' to treat her condition.

Although she isn’t currently working in an official capacity, the Princess of Wales has made a few public appearances in the months since her cancer announcement, including outings at Wimbledon and Trooping the Colour. She most recently appeared in a video message with Prince William that congratulated the members of Team Great Britain on their wins at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
