CATHERINE, the princess of Wales, will be recuperating at her home, Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Great Park, as she receives treatment for cancer.
The 42-year-old member of the royal family has revealed that she is undergoing preventive chemotherapy after cancer was detected following her abdominal surgery in January.
During her recovery, she will be at her four-bedroom royal residence, where she resides with her husband, Prince William, aged 42, and their three children: Prince George, aged 10, Princess Charlotte, aged eight, and Prince Louis, aged five.

However, according to a royal expert, the Grade II listed property, which was built in 1831 for William IV's wife Queen Adelaide, might not be the most suitable option for Catherine due to its chilly interior, the Daily Mail reported.
Former BBC royal correspondent Michael Cole, speaking to GB News, remarked that the family home was "absolutely not an ideal place" for recovery from a surgery. He referenced a description of the property previously penned by Rosemary Townsend.

Their decision stemmed from a desire for a place that necessitated zero renovation or additional security measures, the report added.
Furthermore, the family deemed four bedrooms adequate, as they do not employ live-in staff. Aides commute to the property as required for their services.
Situated in the middle of the Crown Estate's private 655-acre royal park, Adelaide Cottage was constructed as a retreat for Queen Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen.
It was also a favoured residence of Queen Victoria, who frequently indulged in breakfasts there.
The cottage saw substantial renovations in 2015, which meant Prince William and Catherine did not have to invest millions for the same purpose.
