Charles, Fergie, and now Kate.

That's a fairly small percentage. Do you think they have some specialized care that is limiting their odds?

Three out of how many? 57 perhaps? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_members_of_the_House_of_Windsor
This would be 5.3% of them having cancer.
Compare this to about an 18% chance of dying from cancer in a lifetime. https://www.cancer.org/cancer/risk-prevention/understanding-cancer-risk/lifetime-probability-of-developing-or-dying-from-cancer.html
I would say that the UK royal family is doing a very good job of avoiding cancer.
I agree with you there. I was just surprised three members were diagnosed so close together. I hope fate is kind to Kate, and allows her enough time to at least see her kids reach their teen years.

Yeap, it's not that it was three, but the odds that they were announced in such a short time frame. share
And apparently the Queen had it to.
