Kate Middleton is vying for Time Magazine’s annual “Person of the Year” title.
The Princess of Wales, 42, is on the shortlist after she “made international headlines this year and stirred a conversation about privacy and health for public figures,” the magazine wrote.
Other notables on Time’s shortlist include Vice-President Kamala Harris, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, podcaster Joe Rogan, businessman Elon Musk, convicted felon and incoming President Donald Trump, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Russian economist Yulia Navalnaya.
The announcement was made on the “Today” show Monday morning with the winner due to be announced on Thursday.

7 Since 1927, Time has selected a person or group who has made the biggest impact — whether positive or negative — over the past 12 months.
Middleton was previously on the Time100 list of Most Influential People in 2013, and one of the runners-up for Person of Year in 2011.
The royal’s health made headlines in January when it was announced that she would be undergoing major abdominal surgery.

7 Cruel rumors and conspiracy theories ran rampant after she was not seen in public for several months after the surgery.
They were put to rest in April when the mother of three shared in a video that she had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy.
Middleton did not reveal which kind of cancer she had and shared that they had delayed announcing the news to protect her and Prince William’s three children: Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.
Three months ago, the royal released another video revealing that she had “finally completed my chemotherapy treatment.”
