Kate Middleton Shares Rare Statement Amid Cancer Diagnosis
Sep 8, 2024
Kate Middleton is shouting out a new colleague.
While the Princess of Wales has largely kept a low profile after announcing she was undergoing cancer treatment earlier this year, she shared a heartfelt congratulations to the United Kingdom’s new chief scout Dwayne Fields on social media.
“Delighted to welcome @dwaynefields as the new UK Chief Scout,” read Kate’s post, shared on her and husband Prince William‘s Instagram Stories Sept. 6. “The Scouts is such an incredible organization, teaching #SkillsForLife and making a huge difference to young people across the country.”
She added, “Looking forward to working with you! C.”
Dwayne, a TV presenter and explorer who in 2010 became the first Black Briton to reach the North Pole, succeeded Bear Grylls as the UK’s Chief Scout Sept. 5.
“I was first introduced to Scouts at the age of 7,” Dwayne said in a video shared on his and the organization’s Instagram. “I’ve been so lucky that I’ve managed to take young people on expeditions right across the world, but right here in the Scout groups and HQs right across this country is where Scouting lives.”
