According to historian Tessa Dunlop, the announcement of the king's hospitalization, which came about 90 minutes after that of his daughter-in-law, served to distract from the princess's intervention, about which nothing is actually known

The latest rumor, spread by People magazine, which contacted sources close to the family, sheds light on how hospitalizations and procedures occurred a surprise not just for the English, but also for Kate's friends and most of the royal family. Only a few knew Just very trustworthy people who would never have been able to spread indiscretions: you know, in certain cases The more informed you are, the more likely the news is to reach the press.

However, the Princess of Wales and her entourage were very good at it keep the secret, So much so that a week after the operation we still don't know the details, it's just full of hypotheses.

According to royal expert Angela Levin, it is “strange and worrying” that the future queen “will remain in hospital for a good two weeks and will not appear in public again until Easter” following abdominal surgery.

Also after the holidays Kate celebrated her birthday at Adelaide Cottage, where she lives with her husband and children George, Charlotte and Louis, returned to school the following day, January 10th. It is therefore plausible that the operation was actually planned, but not because of a serious pathology; Given the important recovery times approximately three and a half monthsmaybe the princess decided on it a hospital stay at the beginning of the year to spend Christmas with family and in order not to make the absence a burden for the children. At the moment she is still in hospital at the London Clinic, where – as we learn from People – she is also very good at physiotherapy after abdominal surgery. After her discharge, Kate will spend her recovery in Windsor, where she will also be supported by her parents, who have always played an important role in caring for her three grandchildren. We should see it again after Easter, early April.
