The Princess of Wales let her husband do the beer tasting yesterday as she revealed she has cut back on alcohol “since my diagnosis”. Catherine, 44, was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer at the start of 2024 and underwent six months of chemotherapy. She is now in remission and has resumed a normal schedule of royal engagements.
The princess made the comments as the couple got stuck in by pulling pints and taking part in brewing as they visited the famous Bermondsey Beer Mile this afternoon. William and Catherine, who earlier visited Borough Market, popped by Faber Beerhall, where they were invited to try some beer and cider.
But the princess politely declined and told owner Hannah Rhodes: “Since my diagnosis, I haven’t had much alcohol.” She added: “It’s something I have to be a lot more conscious of now.” Rhodes, who offered Kate a soft drink instead, said: “Fair enough.”
