Sarah Ferguson has been through a lot over the last year, revealing her malignant melanoma diagnosis in January having previously undergone treatment for breast cancer.
On Sunday, the royal took to Instagram where she issued a heartfelt health-related message.
Sharing an image of herself beaming and with her flowing red hair worn loose, the Duchess donned a beautiful dark blue skirt and jacket for the outdoor snapshot.
She captioned the photo: "Today on #WorldHealthDay, I would like to remind anyone who may be reading this to check in with yourself.
"Check in on your state of mind and check in on your body. Go to your routine health check. Take that walk. Read a book. Your body and mind are a priority. Make sure to show them love."
Sarah's followers were quick to praise the kind and encouraging message, wishing her well and hoping that her health remains stable.
After the Princess of Wales publicly revealed that she had been diagnosed with cancer last month, mum-of-two Sarah was among those who expressed well wishes.

"As someone who has faced their own battles with cancer in recent months, I am full of admiration for the way she has spoken publicly about her diagnosis and know it will do a tremendous amount of good to raise awareness. I hope she will now be given the time, space and privacy to heal."

However, post-operative tests subsequently found that cancer had been present. The announcement came weeks after Buckingham Palace confirmed that the King had been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer on 5 February.

Sarah, 64, announced her own medical procedure at the beginning of 2024, when she revealed a diagnosis of malignant melanoma, a form of skin cancer.

She discovered she had an early form of breast cancer after a routine mammogram screening. The Duchess appeared on Loose Women last November to help launch its inaugural Don't Skip Your Screening campaign to highlight the importance of being tested for cancer.

"My cancer was completely symptom-free – I never found a lump and did not feel ill. My experience underlines the vital importance of getting screened when you're called in."
