Kate Middleton’s secret message decoded: ‘She’s done with all this!’

Kate Middleton’s most recent video, posted in time for the New Year and her birthday, has just featured a public admission of her largest lesson learnt yet, all wrapped up in a respectful nod to Mother Nature.

In that video message the Princess talked not only about the resilient power of the season but also about her own reflections and the gratitude she feels.

“I find myself reflecting on how deeply grateful I am,” the princess says in her video. “For the rivers within us flow with ease, fears washed away, cleanse and purify. Come to peace with our tears and discover what it means to be alive.”

Even royal commentator Robert Jobson touched on what the raw meaning behind her words likely meant, especially since she had a battle against cancer just last year that involved preventative chemotherapy treatments.

In the chat with Hello! he said, “after everything she has been through, she feels blessed that her treatment is over, and quality time with the children [Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and seven-year-old Prince Louis] is what matters most. She takes nothing for granted.”

Plus, “birthdays are all milestones and perhaps mean more now that her children are growing up fast, but this doesn't mean that Catherine feels the need to celebrate with grand gestures,” he added, highlighting her 44th run around the sun.

Because of that he added, “she won't go back to the old pace; she's learnt that lesson. It will be meaningful, with gaps in between for her family.”

One that reminds her “running on empty isn't an option; nor is missing too much time with George, Charlotte and Louis,” so “the days of just powering through are done,” he added while signing off.
