Image alteration scandal in lede
[edit]The lede mentions nothing about her image alteration scandal or cancer diagnosis. This seems fit for that section, no? natemup (talk) 19:09, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
- Her cander treatment probably should be but the image alteration was trivial and soon blew over. Not worth including in the introduction. Celia Homeford (talk) 08:09, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- Catherine recently released a video in which she announced the completion of her chemotherapy treatment and how she is looking forward to staying "cancer-free".
- Even Sarah, Duchess of York, suffered from cancer recently but has since then undergone treatment which has deemed her cancer-free. Hence her article lead does not state it.
- It's a similar case with Catherine. Unless, it's serious and has a major impact on her life (not one year of public engagements), it would not be worthwhile to have it in lead. I would still prefer including it later on if it does become serious. Looking forward to what others have to say on this. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 08:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- The fact that Catherine is married to Prince William suggests that her medical condition and treatment will have a much more noticeable impact than the comparable circumstances on Sarah? Martinevans123 (talk) 08:59, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- True, but she has completed her chemotherapy treatment and is fine now, as per the Palace and her own statement. Anyways, it has been covered under the "Health" section. In future, if anything more serious occurs due to her cancer diagnosis, we would include it in the lead. MSincccc (talk) 09:35, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
