Princess Kate is taking a cautious approach to her health, surrounding herself with only a tight-knit circle of trusted family members as she undergoes preventative cancer treatment.
According to sources close to the royal family, Kate has not met with her close friends since her health update, opting instead to rely on her immediate family for support.
"The key thing for her now is avoiding any kind of stress or anxiety and just getting on with the business of getting better," a friend of Prince William and Princess Kate revealed to The Daily Beast.
The couple is reportedly planning to relocate to Sandringham once the school term ends, allowing Kate to focus on her recovery in a peaceful and private setting.
Kate's friends have expressed understanding and support for her decision, acknowledging that her health is the top priority. "They might not see Catherine again until the autumn—and only then if she has recovered fully," a friend told The Daily Mail's Richard Eden.
Those close to the royal couple have emphasized the importance of family in Kate's life, particularly her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, and siblings, Pippa and James Middleton.
"The circle of trust is tiny," a pal of the Prince and Princess of Wales shared with The Daily Beast.
"She has been surrounded by Carole and Michael, and Pippa and James have obviously been there for her as well. They are an incredibly tight family, and Catherine feels confident relying on them. They have been there for her for decades and never let her down."
