Prince William and Kate Middleton pay their sincere respects to Deborah James

The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, and his wife, Kate Middleton, paid tribute to Deborah James, who died at the age of 40.

Heading to their official Twitter account, the royal couple tweeted: “We are so sad to hear the heartbreaking news about Lady Deborah. Our thoughts are with her children, her family and her loved ones. ”

They went on to say: “Deborah was an inspiring and unmistakably brave woman whose legacy will live on. TOILET. “

The family of podcast host and cancer fighter Deborah announced on Wednesday that she had died “peacefully … surrounded by her family.”

In May, the day after Queen Elizabeth approved a lady for Deborah James, Prince William visited her and presented her with the medal.

On Twitter, Deborah shared many photos with the Duke and wrote: “The time @KensingtonRoyal came for tea to give me my Damehood! Surreal. “

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also praised her on Twitter a few days before the Queen approved of Damehood.
