The Princess of Wales underwent abdominal surgery in January, and the Palace released a statement confirming that she would not be returning to work until after Easter. In recent weeks, there has been growing speculation online about Kate Middleton's recovery as royal fans have been desperate for an update. As a result, a spokesperson made an unprecedented move by responding to the 'wild conspiracy theories' circulating on social media by reiterating that they would not be offering any information about the Princess.
Although a paparazzi photo of Kate was published earlier this week, it has not silenced the online chatter as her return to work was seemingly confirmed by the Ministry of Defence, only to be removed shortly afterwards.
