The Princess of Wales’s former aide has detailed the “unwavering support” she offered to the Royal Family during their difficult times in recent years.<\/p>\n
Natasha Archer, the Wales family’s former chief aide, played a central role during Catherine’s cancer treatment and subsequent chemotherapy.<\/p>\n
Two months prior to Catherine’s cancer announcement on March 22, 2024, the princess underwent planned abdominal surgery. Her condition was initially thought to be non-cancerous, though post-operative tests found that cancer had been present.<\/p>\n
She had been collected from the procedure by Ms Archer, who had, at that time, joined the princess’s most trusted friendship circle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The 37-year-old supported Catherine throughout her course of preventative chemotherapy in 2024, during which Catherine took a step back from her royal duties.<\/p>\n
Speaking to The Telegraph, the former senior private executive assistant to the Waleses detailed how she offered her “unwavering support” to the Prince and Princess of Wales during tough periods.<\/p>\n
“I’ve made incredible friendships there and I look back on my memories totally fondly and I just feel really grateful to have had that opportunity,” she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“I learnt so much from the people I was working for. It\u2019s planning, it’s being ready, it\u2019s offering an unwavering level of support to who you are working with.<\/p>\n
“And my work has definitely evolved now, but my standards remain the same.”<\/p>\n
She described working with the Wales family as “an extraordinary privilege” that she holds “so close to my heart.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Princess of Wales previously described her treatment, which ended on September 9, 2024, as “quite a daunting experience”, emphasising the crucial role of support teams and her inner circle during treatment.<\/p>\n
During a visit to Colchester Hospital’s Cancer Wellbeing Centre last year, the 44-year-old said cancer treatment is a “life-changing experience, both for the patient but also for the families as well.”<\/p>\n
“You have to find your new normal, and that takes time… and it’s a rollercoaster, it’s not one smooth plane, which you expect it to be. But the reality is it’s not, you go through hard times,” said Catherine.<\/p>\n
The mother-of-three announced she was in remission from cancer on January 14, 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal,” she said at the time.<\/p>\n
“I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead.”<\/p>\n
Months later, Ms Archer would leave her role at Kensington Palace, marking the end of more than 15 years of dedicated service.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
