Although she must remain vigilant and undergo regular 12-week check-ups, the news was the 'best possible outcome she could have hoped for' and her prognosis is good.
“After being diagnosed with melanoma, she underwent further surgery to examine the area around the malignant mole and her lymph nodes,” the Duchess' friend explained.
'The good news is that these have all been found to be cancer-free, so it appears there is no spread of the disease and the prognosis is good, although she will need regular monitoring in the future.
'It's a huge relief for Sarah and the whole family after the most stressful time and anxiously waiting for the results.'
Sources close to the Duchess said doctors were reluctant to use the term “cancer-free” because vigilance was still desperately needed, but added there was plenty of reason for optimism.
The friend added, “She's very lucky that the melanoma was caught early thanks to the vigilance of her dermatologist, who asked to have some moles checked while she was undergoing reconstructive surgery after her mastectomy.”
'Sarah will now have to undergo check-ups every twelve weeks. She is determined that something good will come from her situation and was encouraged to see an increase in the number of people searching the NHS website for details about melanoma after she made her diagnosis public.
“Expect her to beat the drum for the public health message and urge people not to miss mammograms or delay mole checks.
In her first ever live television interview, Beatrice also opened up about her partnership with the charity Outward Bound, which empowers young people to find joy in outdoor events and learning.
In a special project, individuals today are rappelling from the top of the Empire State Building.
'I'm here to start an awesome challenge called The Big Rappel. So I work very closely with a great organization in the UK called the Outward Bound Trust.
“I have been involved with the organization for a few years now and this amazing challenge is a phenomenal collaboration between Outward Bound Trust, Outward Bound International and Outward Bound New York.”
She said the charity 'really exists to think about what young people need in life'.
Her grandfather, Prince Philip, was also involved with the nonprofit in the 1950s.
Beatrice also talked about her love for New York, where she had the opportunity to live for a few years.
“New York for me, when I was thinking about my life and what I wanted to do, New York gave me a place to have a job and just get on with it.
“So New York has always had a special place for me, and also for my mother, she came here and started her charity… back in the day. So for us, New York has always been a great city to spend some time in.”
