Kate Middleton's touching response to remark about George, Louis and Charlotte on visit

The Princess of Wales was visibly moved by a remark about her three children during her recent visit to the Royal Marsden Hospital, where she received her own cancer treatment. Kate spent time thanking the staff for their care and spoke to patients about their cancer journeys, before sharing her own experience of the 'tough' treatment. She later revealed in a personal message on social media that she is in remission.
While in conversation with one patient, Kate was commended for managing her role as a mother of three to Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and six-year-old Prince Louis, during her cancer treatment. The woman told the Princess as she sat with patients and their families on the ward: "I think you've managed the children amazingly well." Touched by the kind words, Kate replied: "Oh, that's kind.".
She added: "The treatments are really so different and so varied, it impacts families differently." Kate was said to have wanted to show her support in person to those going through cancer treatment. Her surprise visit coincided with the news that the Princess has become joint royal patron of the Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, alongside her husband Prince William.
It was clearly a poignant and emotional outing for Kate. And according to body language expert Judi James, her demeanour spoke volumes about her feelings. Judi told the Mirror: "Kate's body language here shows how much this was a very personal visit for her as well as a more royal one to show her thanks. One strong factor defining a change of emotional state comes with the constantly and emphatically raised eyebrows.
