The Princess of Wales, who announced that she was in remission from the disease earlier this year after completing chemotherapy back in September last year, continues to keep busy with her royal duties while maintaining beloved hobbies as part of her recovery efforts.
"Princess Catherine has been recuperating behind the scenes," royal expert Neil Sean told FoxNews Digital. "This includes a return to ballet with her daughter Princess Charlotte, a massive return to daily nature walks, as well as [keeping up with] her photography hobby."
"An excellent source told me she is living in the moment and has no time for drama… or difficult family members," Sean continued. "She attended Trooping of the Colour and the Order of the Garter but felt it was too much to attend Royal Ascot. She felt exhausted. This is normal… regarding her return after cancer."
Sean went further to reveal that Kate has adopted playing the piano every day, describing it as "the best therapy known to her."

"Behind the scenes, the Princess of Wales continues with various Zoom chats with her charities… and dealing with an incredible amount of correspondence from all over the world. But as she's pointed out, it's the simple things in life that have truly turned her life around," Sean stated.
"A source tells me that one of her great comforts is having a very close friendship between herself and her daughter, Princess Charlotte," he continued.
"Last year, they went on a private visit to the Sadler's Wells ballet, which has [sparked] Charlotte's interest in the world of dance, something that Catherine herself shared when she was younger," the royal expert shared.

According to Fox News, royal expert Hilary Fordwich said that she has received both respect and admiration from palace aides, especially for her work ethic.
"Those who work with her, and for her, share that she's disciplined, pragmatic, and a quiet, influential figure," Fordwich explained. "She divides her time meticulously between parenting, supporting Prince William, and fulfilling her royal duties, all while maintaining a workout regimen supporting her physical and mental health."
"Of particular note is her ability to balance tradition with a modern approach to family life, which is crucial for the monarchy's relevance in an ever-changing world," Fordwich said. "She's in lockstep with her generation."
How Prince William And King Charles Are Supporting The Princess Of Wales

Kate's husband, Prince William, and her father-in-law, King Charles, have reportedly "put zero pressure on Catherine to return to full-time royal duties."
"They're [encouraging] her to enjoy these wonderful moments with her young family while recuperating," Sean said. "The princess knows how fortunate she is. She is tending to a brand-new family vegetable garden patch with both Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte."
Sean noted that her other passion "has been returning to her home cooking, particularly her chutney and her specialty honey from her beehive," adding that Kate told the source, "These are great therapeutic things to do."
"You lose yourself in the art of cooking, and it's something you can share with the children, family, and friends while talking about all manner of things with zero pressure," Sean added.

The Princess of Wales recently opened up about her struggles amid her recovery journey, sharing during a visit to Colchester Hospital on Wednesday, admitting that this chapter of her life has been "really, really difficult."

Although no longer under active medical supervision, the 43-year-old royal admitted that she can not "function normally at home as [she] perhaps once used to."
Kate emphasized the importance of having support during this phase of recovery: "[Having] someone to help talk you through that, show you and guide you through that sort of phase that comes after treatment … is really valuable."
The princess further stressed that healing doesn't happen overnight, noting that finding a "new normal … takes time."
"It's a roller coaster, it's not smooth, like you expect it to be. But the reality is, you go through hard times," the princess added.
