JAKARTA - Kate Middleton is back with a personal message after undergoing cancer treatment. The Princess of Wales took part in the National Three Peaks Challenge in England to support cancer services and research.

E News, quoted Thursday, July 2, reported that Kate climbed the highest peaks in England, Scotland, and Wales to support the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. This institution funds cancer treatment and research.

"A lot of people ask why I'm doing this challenge, and part of it is personal," Kate said in an Instagram video posted on June 28.

"I am so grateful to be here, strong enough to walk through these hills. But more importantly, it's about giving back," he said.

Kate, 44, had cancer treatment at the Royal Marsden after being diagnosed in March 2024. She has been in remission since January 2025.

The wife of Prince William said the climb was a way to remind the public of the impact of serious illnesses and the importance of holistic health services. "Through this challenge, I want to raise awareness about the deeper impact of serious illnesses and the importance of holistic health services," Kate wrote in another Instagram post on June 28.

Holistic health care means care that sees the patient as a whole, not just his disease. This approach also takes into account the patient's physical, mental, and daily conditions.

"Everyone is different, and ensuring a care approach that sees the human being in his entirety helps those living with cancer face the challenges of a very personal diagnosis," he wrote.

Kate also mentioned that holistic therapy can complement the clinical treatment pathway. According to the Princess of Wales, this kind of support helps patients maintain well-being, resilience, and quality of life in very difficult times.

This is not the first time Kate has paid attention to cancer patients after the disease she suffered from. Previously, he visited a cancer treatment center and encouraged patients and survivors.

"Please don't worry," Kate said when meeting a cancer patient who had completed treatment in a video uploaded by Hello on June 4.

"It's been an incredible journey. Congratulations, it's an incredible day," he said.
