We want to bring in Royal Commentator, Kinsey Shofield, along with Fox News contributor and Board-Certified Medical Physician, Dr. Jeanette Nashwatt. Kinsey, I think I speak for everyone when I say that I think it was a shock to hear this admission by the Princess, and yet an outpouring of affection, I think, worldwide.

[00:00:22]

Absolutely. As your correspondence just said, she is, polling-wise, the most popular member of the British Royal royal family, not only across the pond, but here in the United States of America. We now understand that the princess discovered her cancer diagnosis on February 27th, when Prince William pulled out of his godfather, King Constantine of Greece's Memorial service, just 45 minutes before he was expected to arrive. There was a lot of speculation surrounding him missing that event, and now we know why.

[00:00:53]

Before we bring in Dr. Jeanette, I want to share this bit of sound from the Princess of Wales, and then I'll get both to react to it. This is her, again, in the video talking about her diagnosis.

[00:01:07]

It has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte, and Louis in a way that's appropriate for them and to reassure them that I'm going to be okay. We hope that you'll understand that as a family, we now need some time, space, and privacy while I complete my treatment.

[00:01:24]

I think I'd be wrong not to mention this, Kenzie. There was so much speculation, hurtful speculation, and I think it underscores the need to sometimes just step back and take a pause.

[00:01:37]

Absolutely. I completely agree with you. And we have a better understanding now that the reason they waited so long to give us the privilege of this information is because they wanted to make sure that the children were not asked about it at school. The kids are getting ready to go on holiday until mid-April. Both Prince William and the Princess of Wales are going to take breaks then, too, to spend time with their family. And they just did not want to upset their babies.

[00:02:00]

I want to turn to my good friend Dr. Jeanette. I don't know what to make of what we heard. A little opaque, but I'm imagining as a physician, you can maybe draw some conclusions from what you heard. What can you tell us?

[00:02:14]

Yeah, My heart and my prayers goes out to Princess Katherine and to her family, to the Royal family. This is a shock for not only the patient, but for the entire family and for the world. But we do know that she is undergoing preventative chemotherapy. That tells me, Kevin, that they caught this cancer early in its early stages. And that usually means, if you catch it early, it usually means a better prognosis. The most common cancers that we see in women in about her age, other than breast cancer and other than melanoma, is usually ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, or colorectal cancer. We don't know exactly the type of cancer we have that she has, but we do know that she's undergoing treatment for it. The purpose of the chemotherapy is to ensure that the cancer cells do not come back, and the goal is to maximize her better prognosis in the future, looking forward.

[00:03:10]

Well, obviously, I think what you said really resonates with everybody, not just here in America, but globally. Our prayers to the family. Kenzie and Dr. Jeanette, thank you both for joining us tonight. We appreciate it.
