Last month, the Palace announced that the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, had been admitted to a private hospital in London for an abdominal surgery. After remaining as an inpatient for two weeks, the Princess was discharged and has since returned home where she will continue with her recovery until she resumes her royal engagements in April.
Prince William had paused all of his official engagements and was due to step back from royal duties while Kate recovered. However, following the news of King Charles' cancer diagnosis, the Prince of Wales will be stepping in for his father in the coming weeks.
