Kate Middleton

While Kate Middleton continues to be the driving force behind the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood and its affiliated Business Taskforce, Kensington Palace has announced that she will be taking an extended leave from her duties.

In March, Catherine, Princess of Wales, revealed that she has been diagnosed with a form of cancer, undergoing medical treatment, including preventative chemotherapy. Despite her absence, her task force, which emphasizes the critical nature of early childhood and seeks to catalyze societal change by ensuring children have a solid foundation, released a new report on Tuesday. The report urges businesses to increase investment in children’s early years by offering support to employees, such as flexible working hours for parents and assistance with childcare.  Kate Middleton

 

Despite being briefed on the report and staying updated on her foundation’s progress, Kate Middleton is not expected to return to work until she receives clearance from her medical team, according to a Kensington Palace spokesperson speaking to the BBC. However, early childhood initiatives will remain central to her public engagements.

Since revealing in January that she underwent an abdominal procedure and subsequently announcing her cancer diagnosis, Kate has requested privacy for herself, William, and their three children. The Wales family opted out of the traditional Easter Sunday service to prioritize spending private time together, demonstrating Kate’s commitment to her advice on being present in parenting.

Emma Franklin from Deloitte, who contributed to the recently published report, emphasized the significance of “parenting out loud” in the workplace. This includes advocating for boundaries such as refraining from responding to work messages during personal time off and openly discussing the challenges faced by working parents. According to the report, setting such examples can pave the way for generational change in the future. Kate Middleton
