Kate Middleton name quietly pulled from the British Army’s website, just days before the scheduled Colonel’s Review, an event that was speculated to mark her return post-surgery.
Rumors stirred that the Princess of Wales was slated to attend the Colonel’s Review as the honorary Colonel of the Irish Guards, yet her office at Kensington Palace denied any consultation regarding her appearance.
Prior to the removal of her name, it was widely reported that Middleton would be partaking in the traditional inspection of Foot soldiers, a role she has dutifully fulfilled since her marriage to Prince William in 2011.
Since her “successful” abdominal surgery on January 17th, Kate Middleton has maintained a low profile, recuperating at her residence in Adelaide Cottage, Windsor.
Palace officials have remained tight-lipped about her recovery, only stating that she is “doing well” and is “unlikely to return to public duties until after Easter.”
The Duchess was recently spotted for the first time since her surgery, albeit in grainy photographs, seated beside her mother, Carole Middleton, near Windsor Castle.
Despite efforts to blend in with dark sunglasses and attire, Middleton’s appearance has only fueled curiosity about her health and absence from royal engagements.
Meanwhile, the mysterious circumstances surrounding Middleton’s recuperation coincide with reports of King Charles III’s ongoing battle with cancer, which emerged following a procedure for an enlarged prostate.
Amidst the royal family’s challenges, Prince William’s spokesperson emphasized his focus on work rather than social media engagements.
As the public eagerly awaits updates on Middleton’s condition and potential return to royal duties, her office reiterates its commitment to providing updates only when significant new information emerges, underscoring her desire for privacy and normalcy for her family amidst the relentless scrutiny of royal life.
