The Princess of Wales is no doubt happy to be home, and will be surrounded by her loved ones as she continues to recuperate following her surgery.
This week is extra special for the Middleton family, as Princess Kate’s mother Carole Middleton turned 69 on Wednesday. The Princess will most likely be joined by her parents at her home in Windsor, where they will mark the milestone birthday privately.
Kate, 42, has temporarily stepped back from public duties, and will now remain at home with Prince William and their three children, Prince George, ten, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five.
On Monday, Kensington Palace announced that the royal had left hospital and returned to her home almost two weeks after undergoing major abdominal surgery. She was admitted to the London Clinic – the same private hospital where King Charles underwent treatment for an enlarged prostate – for a planned operation on 16 January.
The future Queen is not expected to return to official duties until after Easter, with her husband the Prince of Wales temporarily stepping back from his royal role to juggle caring for her and their children.
A Kensington Palace spokesperson said: “The Princess of Wales has returned home to Windsor to continue her recovery from surgery. She is making good progress.
“The Prince and Princess wish to say a huge thank you to the entire team at The London Clinic, especially the dedicated nursing staff, for the care they have provided. The Wales family continues to be grateful for the well wishes they have received from around the world.”
