Kate Middleton has suffered postoperative complications in hospital, claims royal journalist

Last week, the Royal Family announced that Kate Middleton underwent an abdominal procedure, resulting in her hospitalization for two weeks and a hiatus from official engagements until after Easter. While the official statement indicated that the surgery was planned and successful, the lack of detailed information led to speculation and opinions.

The statement from Kensington Palace mentioned that the Princess of Wales had undergone planned abdominal surgery, which was successful. She was expected to remain in the hospital for ten to fourteen days, with a subsequent recovery period at her family home in Windsor. The announcement also conveyed her desire for privacy regarding personal medical information and apologized for postponing upcoming engagements.

While some sources claimed the surgery was non-cancerous, others speculated that complications had arisen. Spanish journalist Concha Calleja, citing a palace insider, suggested that something went wrong in the postoperative period. Calleja claimed that the situation was serious, prompting the issuance of statements. According to her, Kate felt unwell after the Christmas lunch, was admitted on December 28, and had been under medical care for several days.

The reported seriousness of the situation led to expectations of a forthcoming statement from the Palace to provide more details about Kate’s condition and the complications in the postoperative period. The operation was described as lasting several hours with a certain level of risk, although the risk did not manifest on the operating table but afterward.

Kate has previously expressed her aversion to staying in hospitals, citing memories of extreme morning sickness after giving birth to George. She emphasized her eagerness to return home and resume normalcy, indicating that hospitals were not places she wanted to linger.

As the public awaits further updates, the focus remains on Kate’s recovery, and well-wishes are extended for her swift return to her usual duties.
