Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, has made her first public appearance since December. She was spotted riding in a car with her mother, Carole Middleton, on Monday. This sighting comes after Kate underwent planned abdominal surgery in January. Kensington Palace recently addressed rumors about the princess's whereabouts, emphasizing that they would only provide significant updates on her recovery.
The palace spokesperson confirmed that Kate is doing well following her surgery. The timeline for her recovery was initially outlined when the operation was announced on January 16. It was stated that the surgery was successful, and Kate was expected to remain in the hospital for 10 to 14 days before continuing her recovery at home. Based on medical advice, it was unlikely that she would resume public duties until after Easter.
