Why Kate Middleton Is Still Not Appearing to the Public After Her Surgery
Buckingham Palace shared news about King Charles and Kate Middletonâs medical procedures, but they did it in different ways. For King Charles, they told everyone before his operation. But for Kate, they waited until after her surgery to tell people. And now even weeks after her surgery, Kate is still not appearing to the public, and hereâs why.
Why Kateâs surgery was kept a secret?

The palace source stated, âIt was sensible to be more open about it, as otherwise, people might have thought the worst.â
The choice to announce King Charlesâ medical procedure ahead of time was to prevent rumors and concerns. They believed being transparent would foster a supportive atmosphere.
In contrast, they held off on revealing news about Kateâs surgery to respect her privacy during the procedure.
Where is the Princess of Wales now?
Regarding Princess Kateâs abdominal surgery, a royal insider reported that sheâs âdoing well.â She spent 10 to 14 days in the hospital and will require three months of recuperation at home. Although the palace didnât specify her condition, they assured her it was not cancer.
Weeks after her operation, Kate has still not made a public appearance. It is reported that the reason for this is because the Princess of Wales has moved from her home at Adelaide Cottage to Sandringham in Norfolk.
Her decision to stay at the Royal Familyâs country estate, Sandringham, during the kidsâ half-term break, is seen as a positive sign of Princess Kateâs ongoing recovery from her abdominal surgery.
Moreover, the fact that Wales has opted to spend quality time together has been praised as a clear indication of Kateâs âsteady recoveryâ.
The source explained that Norfolk provides the family with the expansive, open spaces they seek, away from the intrusive Heathrow flight path experienced in Windsor. Additionally, there are friends in Norfolk, such as the Marquess and Marchioness of Cholmondeley, with whom they can enjoy some leisure time.
