Princess Catherine prioritizes hands-on parenting and long-term mental health and early childhood causes while gradually resuming royal duties after cancer remission, topping UK popularity polls at 68%.

  • On January 9, Catherine, Princess of Wales turns 44, days before the first anniversary of her cancer remission announcement, while quietly prioritising family and long-term passion projects.
  • Advisers say the shift comes from a deliberate focus on early years and children's development, aiming to create a stable, middle-class-style family life amid reputational strains on the House of Windsor.
  • At home, Catherine and Prince William have settled the Wales children into the Grade II-listed eight-bedroom Forest Lodge, Windsor Great Park, retaining long-serving nanny Maria Teresa Borrallo and sharing school runs while limiting phone use.
  • A recent UK YouGov poll found Catherine, Princess of Wales topping approval with 68 per cent positive, and the couple have kept a visible profile with a surprise visit to Charing Cross Hospital.
  • Looking ahead, plans include Prince George starting a new senior school later this year, a potential United States visit in 2026, and the Wales family's advisers say they intend to remain through Prince William, Prince of Wales's accession.
