The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, is currently undergoing medical treatment at a London hospital following a successful abdominal surgery, Kensington Palace announced today. The 42-year-old princess was admitted to The London Clinic earlier this week for a planned procedure.
Kate Middleton is expected to remain in the hospital for a period of 10 to 14 days, after which she will return home to continue her recovery. Based on the current medical advice, the Princess is not anticipated to resume her public duties until after the Easter holiday.
A spokesperson from Kensington Palace released a statement, saying, “The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate. 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.
While the specific details of the surgery and the nature of the medical condition were not disclosed, it is evident that Kate Middleton is taking the necessary time to focus on her health and well-being during her hospitalization.
Kensington Palace has indicated that updates on the Princess’s progress will be provided only when there is significant new information to share. In the meantime, Kate Middleton’s well-wishers and the public are respecting her privacy and eagerly await her return to her royal duties.
