Kate Middleton revealed how her hair remained intact while undergoing preventive chemotherapy. The princess made the confession while interacting with a patient during a recent royal visit.
The Princess of Wales recently visited the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she underwent treatment for cancer, and met with cancer patients.
Katherine Field, a patient at the facility, told People Magazine that Kate said she didn't need to undergo cold cap therapy, a treatment that helps reduce hair loss during chemotherapy.
“I hate it,” Field said of the cool hat she was wearing at the time of the interview, adding, “"but I think it's working. There's a little hair coming out today, but I'm just trying to delay it."
She was then asked if Kate indicated whether she was wearing the cold weather hat during their last interaction, to which Field said: "She just said she shouldn't have worn it."
""For her to lose her hair, which is so iconic, would have been terrible," Field commented. "Everyone loves her hair!"
Speaking about her interaction with the Princess of Wales, she said: “It was just like talking to a friend about a really terrible time in life and how you find ways to get through it. “Finding the new normal” is what she said, which is absolutely true."
“I really like the photo. It was a special moment that not many people get to have,” Field continued. “Unfortunately, I had to get cancer to have that moment, but I’ll add it to my album for sure. I want to remember the good, not just the bad.”
