Kate, Princess of Wales and King Charles have both been diagnosed with cancer

Royal biographer Angela Levin has claimed that Princess Anne "will do anything for her brother" after the Royal Family has been rocked by health issue over the past few weeks.

The Princess of Wales’s revelation that she is undergoing cancer treatment sparked an outpouring of support and well wishes from around the world. The emotional video message saw Kate speak out on the ‘huge shock’ of her diagnosis as she opened up on the ‘incredibly tough couple of months’ her family have experienced.


Kate is not the only royal battling the disease as King Charles recently revealed that he is also undergoing cancer treatment and will return to his royal duties when possible.

Levin explained that this means that it is likely that Princess Anne, the most hardworking royal, will step up for a frontline role.

Speaking to Mark Dolan on GB News, Levin said: "l think Princess Anne is always ready for a frontline role. I think she did when we saw that in the coronation when she was there on her horse guarding the new King.

"That was a very important job to look after him. I think she's willing to do everything, but she doesn't like the press to follow her. She doesn't like to be the centre of attraction.

"But she will do anything for her brother. I mean, she can be relied on, I think the public likes her very much because she's just no no-nonsense woman, you know?

When asked whether the King's other sibling Edward could also help Levin said: "Sophie does far more than Edward. I think the pair of them can do everything.

"The Queen once said that Sophie is marvelous because when she's in the room, you don't even know she's there. She gets on with things.

"Although it doesn't sound particularly polite, it's very important that she does do so much work. She's taking on loads just to be helpful and to be part of the family."

Speaking in the video message recorded on Wednesday in Windsor, the Kate had said: “In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous.

“The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present.

“My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment.

“This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family. As you can imagine, this has taken time.”

She is casually dressed in the video and sitting on a bench, saying: “It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment.

“But, most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be OK.

“As I have said to them; I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirits.”
