Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, announced her cancer diagnosis on Friday, two months after undergoing abdominal surgery, and said she was in the early stages of treatment and was undergoing chemotherapy for the malignancy.

Despite not coming from a royal or aristocratic background, she has always given the impression of taking the challenges of royal life in her stride and quickly became one of the family's most popular members.

Leading Prime Ministers and other dignitaries from across the globe wished the 42-year-old a speedy recovery after the news came through on Friday. Here are some of the reactions:
