Kate reappears in official photo and thanks for support after surgery

Kensington Palace released an official photo of Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, this Sunday (10). On the topic, Kate thanked the public for their support over the past two months.

The princess underwent stomach surgery in January and was hospitalized for 13 days. After the procedure, Kate did not make any public appearances, which fueled rumors about her health.

On March 4, US website TMZ published a photo of what appeared to be the princess' first public appearance in six weeks. In the film, he appears in the passenger seat of a car.

This Sunday, Kensington Palace released a photo of Kate with her children Louis, Charlotte and George. The princess is sitting and smiling. This photo was taken by Prince William.

“Thank you for your well wishes and continued support over the past two months,” he wrote.

Kate also wished Mother's Day in the UK this Sunday.

Rumors

At the end of January, the British monarchy announced that Kate would not resume her public schedule until after Easter, as she needed to rest.

Since then, little information about Kate Middleton's health has been released by Kensington Palace, which is responsible for official communication between her and Prince William.

The lack of updates on the princess's health led to rumors that she had “disappeared”. Also, William's failure to attend an event fueled conspiracy theories.

For example, on Google, searches related to Kate Middleton's name include plastic surgery to enlarge her butt and divorce with Prince William.

At X, the old Twitter, it's no different. In addition to the Google-searched theories, users joked that the princess couldn't possibly have had a haircut.
