Princess Kate revealed she's changed her drinking habits following her cancer diagnosis. Here's what you should know about alcohol and cancer.
Princess Kate revealed her relationship with alcohol has changed since her cancer diagnosis.
While touring a beer hall with Prince William on March 12, the Princess of Wales, 44, said she's not much of a drinker.
"Since my diagnosis, drinking alcohol is not really something − it's just something I have to be a lot more conscious of now," the royal says in video taken at the event.
Princess Kate revealed in March 2024 that she had been diagnosed with cancer and would undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy after having abdominal surgery. Her treatment ended in September, and in January 2025, she announced her cancer was in remission.
Drinking alcohol raises your risk of getting several kinds of cancer, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
