Naman Ramachandran The BBC has responded to complaints about its extensive coverage of the cancer diagnosis of Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales.
Last month, Middleton confirmed she has undergone treatment for cancer. In an emotional video, Middleton said that while her condition was originally thought to be non-cancerous, cancer was found in her system following abdominal surgery and she is now in the “early stages” of preventative chemotherapy.
The BBC said that it “received complaints from people who feel our coverage of the Princess of Wales’ cancer diagnosis was excessive and insensitive.” In response to the complaints, the BBC said in a statement on Friday: “We broadcast in full the highly personal video message from the Princess of Wales, in which she spoke directly to the public about her cancer diagnosis.
