Royal biographer Claudia Joseph told Fabulous earlier this year: "Natasha has been at Kate’s side since she joined the Royal family and will be a tower of strength for her as she fights her battle against cancer."
The biographer continued: "She was one of a handful of people who visited the Princess at the London Clinic, and is, no doubt, available to her day and night, whenever she wants a chat.
"Natasha, who is five years younger than Kate, has been in the Princess’s orbit for more than 13 years and has witnessed all the key events in her life: she has been at her side for Royal weddings, births and overseas tours, she visited Kate at the Lindo Wing, at London’s St Mary’s Hospital, after the birth of her children."
In March, Princess Kate announced she had undergone preventative chemotherapy after cancer was found in tests following her significant abdominal surgery earlier this year.
