Following her skin cancer diagnosis, Sarah Ferguson expressed optimism about her health.

The Duchess of York was seen leaving King Edward VII’s Hospital in the Marylebone neighbourhood on Wednesday, Jan. 24, after visiting her doctor.

According to the Daily Mirror, Fergie was moved by the concern of those gathered outside the hospital and “stopped to chat with locals before being driven off”.

“I’m fine, thank you,” she allegedly assured one of the concerned onlookers.

A representative for the mother of two disclosed on Sunday, Jan. 21, that the former princess had been diagnosed with malignant melanoma, just months after having a masectomy to cure breast cancer.

Melanocytes are the cells responsible for the skin’s brown or tan hue; in malignant melanoma, they proliferate abnormally.

She later took to Instagram to reflect on her diagnosis, writing a lengthy message.

“Naturally another cancer diagnosis has been a shock but I’m in good spirits and grateful for the many messages of love and support,” she wrote beside a selfie of herself.

The ex-wife of Prince Andrew then urged her followers to continue to monitor the size, shape, color, and texture of new moles, which she warned might be a “sign of melanoma and urge anyone who is reading this to be diligent.”
