Kate Middleton, who has recently overcome a year-long battle with cancer, has sparked renewed speculation following Prince William’s announcement about his upcoming trip to Brazil for the 2025 Earthshot Prize.
The prestigious environmental event, which was launched by Prince William in 2020, is scheduled to take place in Brazil this November. Royal fans are buzzing with excitement over the possibility of Princess Kate accompanying her husband on the trip, which would mark her first international visit since her cancer diagnosis was made public. However, there has been no official confirmation about her attendance yet.
The Earthshot Prize, which aims to find and scale solutions to some of the world’s most pressing environmental challenges, has been a central project for William, and Kate has been actively involved in its promotion. The Princess of Wales previously attended the ceremony in London in 2021 and Boston in 2022. However, she missed the 2023 event in Singapore to remain with Prince George during an important school exam. Additionally, Kate stayed in Windsor during the 2024 ceremony in South Africa to focus on her cancer treatment.

This year, Kate has not traveled abroad but made her first visit to Wales in February 2025, marking her first outing since her diagnosis.
Royal watchers are hopeful that the upcoming Earthshot Prize trip could offer a significant public appearance for Kate, especially given the challenging year she has faced. If she does decide to join Prince William in Brazil, it would symbolize not only her recovery but also her continued dedication to the causes she holds dear. The royal couple’s supporters are eager to see if Kate will step back into her international duties, a clear sign of her resilience and strength after her health battle.
