Prince William showed a photo of Kate Middleton after surgery for the first time and addressed the public on her behalf

Kensington Palace has published an official photo of Kate Middleton for the first time after she underwent a "mysterious" abdominal surgery. In the picture, the 42-year-old Princess of Wales poses with her three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

As you know, the picture was published on the occasion of Mother's Day, which is celebrated in the UK on the fourth Sunday of Lent, which is this year on March 10. The photo appeared on the official Instagram page of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Under the photo, Prince William left a warm message to the people on behalf of his wife: "Thank you for your good wishes and continued support over the past two months. I wish everyone a happy Mother's Day."

In the photo, the wife of the main heir to the British throne looks happy: she smiles sincerely, surrounded by similarly smiling children.

It is noted that the family portrait was taken by Prince William himself. That is why he is not in the photo. Presumably, his wife and children were posing at their Anmer Hall estate in Norfolk during a recent vacation. However, rumors have already spread online that the photo was taken a long time ago, before Kate Middleton's January surgery. Whether this is true is unknown. Meanwhile, most Internet users hope that the photo is fresh and that Katherine looks so healthy and happy right now.

It should be noted that the other day Kate Middleton was spotted in public for the first time in more than two months near Windsor Castle. The Duchess was caught while traveling by car with her mother Carol.

A few weeks ago, an insider said that the princess was "feeling well" and recovering. However, no official statements about the mother of three have been published. This caused concern among fans of the royal family, who had already missed the Duchess. She was last seen during the Christmas celebration.

Rumors of Middleton's "poor condition" were fueled by her husband, who at the last minute refused to participate in an important event due to "personal reasons." After that, rumors about the princess's health spread in the media.

As a reminder, on January 16, Kate Middleton was hospitalized for abdominal surgery. Representatives of the British royal family then reported that the 42-year-old Princess of Wales would stay in a medical institution for about two weeks.

Earlier, OBOZ.UA reported that after discharge, the Princess of Wales would "work from bed" and would not appear in public until Easter, so a number of events planned for that time had to be canceled.
