Catherine, Princess of Wales, revealed her diagnosis in a video statement.
The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, says she is in the early stages of treatment after cancer was found in tests.
In a video statement, she disclosed that it was a "huge shock" after an "incredibly tough couple of months".
But she sent a positive message, saying she is well and getting stronger every day.
Details of the cancer have not been disclosed, but Kensington Palace says it is confident the princess will make a full recovery.
The princess's statement explained that when she had abdominal surgery in January, it was not known that there was any cancer.
But tests after the operation found cancer had been present.
She said her medical team then advised that she should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy.
