QuotePrince Michael of Kent still carries out a busy schedule of engagements at the age of 72, but the Queen's beloved cousin has been fighting a secret health battle.

The grandson of George V underwent surgery for prostate cancer and has been successfully receiving treatment.

Members of the Royal Family are usually reluctant to discuss their health issues, but the Prince has bravely decided to confirm details, in support of the thousands of other sufferers of the disease.  'Prince Michael regards all medical issues as personal and private,' his spokesman, Simon Astaire, tells me.

'However, he has authorised me to tell you that this particular problem was, happily, diagnosed very early and treated successfully last year by a surgical team who have his admiration and gratitude. There will be no further comment.'
