Kate Middleton 'May Never Come Back' to the Royal Role She Had Before Cancer Diagnosis

Middleton's team has been “reevaluating what she’s going to be able to take on when she comes back.”

Kate Middleton will eventually make a return to royal life once she fully recovers from her cancer treatment, but according to new reports, observers will need to adjust to the Princess of Wales's role within the monarchy being different following her recovery.

While Middleton has been silently working away from the public eye, her team has been “reevaluating what she’s going to be able to take on when she comes back,” Us Weekly reports, with their source adding that “she may never come back in the role that people saw her in before.”
