The Princess of Wales has sparked concerns 38 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: this week after pulling out of her planned and highly 39 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 2: anticipated appearance at Royal Ascot in England. She was initially 40 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: supposed to take part in the Royal carriage procession alongside 41 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 2: William and the King and Queen, but canceled on the 42 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: day with report she was disappointed but had to find 43 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: the right balance on returning to full time duty. I 44 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: was actually at Ascot on Wednesday when the news she 45 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 2: was no longer attending broke and I can confirm it 46 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: caused quite a stir. There was understandably a lot of disappointment, 47 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: but I saw the other royals there and they looked 48 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: to be having a lovely day, so that's a good 49 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 2: sign that things are okay back home now. It came 50 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: amid a busy week for Kate and the rest of 51 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 2: the family, after she attended Trooping the Color last Saturday 52 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: and then the Order of the Garter ceremony in Windsor 53 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: on Monday, and Kate had to skip Ascot last year 54 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: she was undergoing treatment for cancer, and even though she's 55 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: now in remission, it's regularly been stressed by the Palace 56 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: that there is flexibility around her engagements as she resumes 57 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: public duties.
