She said she was well and getting stronger.
“My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment,” Kate said in the video which was filmed on Wednesday.
“This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family.”
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says Australians are “sending support and strength” to Catherine, the Princess of Wales, following her announcement she is receiving chemotherapy to treat cancer.
“My thoughts, and those of Australians, are with the Princess of Wales and her family following the news of her cancer diagnosis,” he posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Saturday.
Albanese said the Princess showed “extraordinary courage” with her public statement, in which she expresses her concern for others.
Prince Harry, who has fallen out with William since he moved to California with his wife Meghan, sent a message of support.
“We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace,” Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, said.

Buckingham Palace said on Friday that the King is proud of Kate for her courage in speaking about her treatment.
Charles is “so proud of Catherine for her courage in speaking as she did” and has “remained in the closest contact with his beloved daughter-in-law throughout the past weeks,” after they spent time in hospital together, a Buckingham Palace representative said.
Charles and his wife Camilla “will continue to offer their love and support to the whole family through this difficult time,” the spokesperson added.
Kate’s office, Kensington Palace, said it would give no further details about the type of cancer.
It said she was on a recovery pathway and the preventative chemotherapy had begun in February.
After her operation, the palace said Kate would not return to official duties until after Easter but her absence from public life has provoked intense speculation on social media.
She and William had wanted privacy about the cancer until their children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five, began their school holidays which started on Friday.
“It has taken me time to recover from major surgery in order to start my treatment. But, most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to George, Charlotte and Louis in a way that is appropriate for them, and to reassure them that I am going to be okay,” she said.
“As I have said to them; I am well and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal; in my mind, body and spirits.”
