“She has had the carol service going on for the past three years or so. She hopes to attend the annual Remembrance Sunday as well.

“There is no suggestion she is in remission, only confirmation she has completed her course of chemotherapy. She wants to focus on being cancer free.

“She thanked the public for their understanding of her absence and the filmmaker that made the artsy video, a very emotional video, which is going to tug at the heartstrings of many.

In the video, Kate says: “Doing what I can to stay cancer-free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.

“I am however looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.

“Despite all that has gone before, I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life.”

The princess’ Christmas Carol concert at Westminster Abbey has become a firm fixture in the royal calendar in recent years and she is understood to have begun working with her team on the project.

Since announcing her cancer diagnosis, Kate has received messages of support from the public which she says she and her husband have “drawn strength” from.

She thanked everyone for their “kindness, empathy and compassion”, adding it has been “truly humbling”.
