In January, Kensington Palace announced that Kate Middleton had undergone planned abdominal surgery and would not resume public duties until 'after Easter' at the earliest.'The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate,' the Palace said at the time. 'She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible; and her wish that her personal medical information remains private.
The lack of updates on Kate is in sharp contrast to the communication regarding King Charles in recent weeks. Since Buckingham Palace announced Charles's cancer diagnosis, he has been photographed attending church at Sandringham, meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and reading get well cards sent to the Palace.
