Kate Middleton broke her silence for the first time since her planned abdominal surgery in January. In a statement posted on Instagram for Mother’s Day in the United Kingdom (celebrated on March 10), the Princess of Wales expressed gratitude for the well wishes she received during her recovery.
Alongside a photo taken by Prince William featuring herself and their three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—Kate wrote, “Thank you for your kind wishes and continued support over the last two months. Wishing everyone a Happy Mother’s Day. C.”
Amid ongoing speculation about her whereabouts, the palace reiterated that Kate is unlikely to resume public duties until after Easter, based on medical advice. Palace statements have addressed and dismissed conspiracy theories, emphasizing Kate’s positive recovery.
Recent reports revealed Prince William’s focus on work rather than social media. Additionally, Kate was spotted driving with her mother Carole Middleton on March 4, with photos released by US media after Kensington Palace appealed for privacy during her recovery.
