The Princess of Wales is currently recovering from abdominal surgery after undergoing treatment for an undisclosed medical issue in January. At the time, the Palace announced that Kate would be resting and had requested privacy until she returns to her royal duties, with her three children said to be doting on the royal and Princess Charlotte even planning a sweet activity to help her mother.
In the same statement the Palace confirmed that the Princess of Wales would not be expected to return to work until after Easter, under doctors advice. However, speculation about Kate's condition reached new heights online in recent weeks given that the Palace has remained quiet on her recovery while King Charles - who was diagnosed with cancer around the same time - has remained semi public-facing through videos and meetings. Additionally, Prince William's absence from a memorial service last weekend 'set off alarm bells' according to royal experts, resulting in a spokesperson refuting a host of claims - including that Kate was in a coma - and calling the rumours 'wild conspiracy theories'.
