I want to take this opportunity to say thank you personally for all the
00:04
wonderful messages of support and for your understanding whilst I've been
00:08
recovering from surgery. It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for
00:14
our entire family but I've had a fantastic medical team who have taken
00:18
great care of me for which I'm so grateful. In January I underwent major
00:23
abdominal surgery in London and at the time it was thought that my condition
00:28
was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful however tests after the
00:33
operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I
00:39
should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I'm now in the early
00:43
stages of that treatment. This of course came as a huge shock and William and I
00:50
have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for
00:55
the sake of our young family. As you can imagine this has taken time. It has taken
01:01
me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment but most
01:06
importantly it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte
01:10
and Louis in a way that's appropriate for them and to reassure them that I'm
01:14
going to be okay. As I've said to them I am well and getting stronger every day
01:20
by focusing on the things that will help me heal in my mind, body and spirits.
01:25
Having William by my side is a great source of comfort and reassurance too as
01:30
is the love, support and kindness that has been shown by so many of you. It
01:35
means so much to us both. We hope that you'll understand that as a family we
01:42
now need some time, space and privacy while I complete my treatment. My work
01:49
has always brought me a deep sense of joy and I look forward to being back
01:53
when I'm able but for now I must focus on making a full recovery. At this time
02:00
I'm also thinking of all those whose lives have been affected by cancer. For
02:06
everyone facing this disease in whatever form please do not lose faith or hope.
02:11
You are not alone.
