A royal commentator has provided an update on Kate Middleton’s possible return to royal duties. GB News Royal Correspondent Cameron Walker has said that the possibility of her return cannot be completely ruled out after her noteworthy appearance at Trooping the Colour this month.

The Princess of Wales made her first public appearance at the annual event since her cancer diagnosis. She told fans ahead of her appearance that she would join a few public engagements over the summer. Walker said while talking about the princess’s return that the palaces have ruled out Royal Ascot and G-Day but haven’t confirmed her absence from any other engagements.

Walker said in conversation with hosts Tom Harwood and Emily Carver, “So they’ve ruled out Ascot and obviously they’ve ruled out G-Day this week, but they haven’t ruled out any further engagements this summer. I suspect we may see her before the summer’s out, but it all depends on where she is with her chemotherapy and if she’s having a good day or a bad day.”

In her statement before her Trooping the Colour appearance, Kate admitted that she is not out of the woods yet with treatment, as she is still undergoing preventative chemotherapy. Walker said that the palace is taking things day by day with the princess’s health woes. “Like she said in her letter when she said she was going to go to Trooping, they’re really taking it step by step, which I imagine is very much the sensible thing to do,” Walker said.

Previously, a source told US Weekly that Kate may never come back in the role that people saw her in before, as she battles cancer. “There was a time when she was front and center on royal engagements with Prince William,” the insider added. Kate is now reevaluating what she is going to be able to take on when she comes back after she started undergoing preventative chemotherapy.

King Charles and Kate Middleton’s health woes have strengthened the bond between Prince William and his father, according to a friend of the royals. Both the princess and the king are battling cancer. While Charles has returned to his royal duties, Kate still hasn’t. However, she was seen during Trooping the Colour in her first appearance since her cancer diagnosis. A friend of the royals has now claimed that over the last six months, Charles and William have grown closer. “They don’t talk about the past, and Charles feels lucky that the two of them can talk about the job,” the friend told the Mail. The illnesses have increased the bond between them, but there is also greater tolerance between the two men.

There seems to be no signs that William’s relationship with Prince Harry may be mending. A source said of the relationship between the two brothers, “Whatever might happen in the future, the trust that was implicit in his relationship with Harry is gone for good.” The source added, “Even if it is possible that some kind of managed reconciliation could be achieved, it will never be anything more than superficial.”

Earlier, a royal expert pointed out that William’s Father’s Day photo shows that his feud with Harry is worse than ever. The Prince of Wales shared an old photo of himself and King Charles from when he was a little boy, captioning it “Happy Father’s Day.” The Mirror’s Royal Editor Russell Myers said on the British talk show Lorraine that it was notable how William chose to post a photo of him and his father alone, excluding Harry. Myers claimed that this was a hint that the feud between the two brothers is no better at present.
