Kate Middleton and Prince William thank everyone who has thought of them after the announcement of the princess's illness and have ceased communications with the outside world until further notice. The heirs to the throne are «enormously touched by the messages» they have received following Catherine's cancer diagnosis «from people here in the United Kingdom, across the Commonwealth and around the world in response to His Royal Highness's message», a spokesperson for Kensington Palace stated in what appears to be the last message from William and Kate on the subject: from now on, the couple intends to handle the matter privately. This was reported by the BBC.

The message from William and Kate

William and Kate «are extremely moved by the warmth and support of the public and are grateful for the understanding of their request for privacy at this time», the note states. It is a message that is at the same time a thank you, an acknowledgment of the extraordinarily positive response to Catherine's video message, and a polite warning emphasizing that the public phase of this matter ends here.
