Actually, the Archbishop of Canterbury never comments on what happens at Buckingham Palace.
But after Princess Kate's cancer diagnosis, the head of the Anglican Church is now speaking out.
London – For a long time, one question concerned the royal world: What is going on with Princess Kate (42)?
Prince William's wife (41) was not seen for months, an edited photo caused a real scandal, and conspiracy theories spread rapidly online.
On Friday, Princess Kate put an end to the rumors and made her cancer public.
Now the Archbishop of Canterbury is speaking about Kate Middleton's shock diagnosis and is protecting the Princess of Wales.
'Should be allowed to be sick': Archbishop of Canterbury speaks about Kate's cancer diagnosis
“Examinations after abdominal surgery revealed that there was cancer,” said Princess Kate in her emotional video message.
She is now in the initial phase of preventive chemotherapy.
It is not yet known what type of cancer it is.
This shocking news led to emotional reactions from her staff in the palace; King Charles, along with Prince William, is firmly at Princess Kate's side.
Justin Welby (68), the Archbishop of Canterbury, also spoke about Princess Kate in a radio interview with the British “Times” and defended her.
“People should be allowed to be sick, have an operation, whatever it is, and live in peace without having to prove something every other day,” said Welby – criticizing the public treatment with Princess Kate's health.
The Archbishop of Canterbury also asks for the wild speculation surrounding Princess Kate to end.
This is “extremely unhealthy”.
Justin Welby has been a close confidante of the Windsors for many years and is friends with Princess Kate and Prince William.
Nevertheless, the interview is surprising.
Because the head of the Anglican Church never comments on the goings-on in the British royal family.
