Kate Middleton was spotted in public for the first time after surgery and rumors of disappearance

Kate Middleton was caught by the paparazzi for the first time in recent memory: she has not appeared in public since Christmas after undergoing abdominal surgery, and numerous rumors have appeared online about where she has disappeared to. There were different assumptions: from betrayal of Prince William and escape from the palace to coma and even death. In an effort to dispel these rumors, Kensington Palace previously released an official statement about Kate's condition.

Kate's photo was published by TMZ. The shot shows Kate Middleton riding in the passenger seat of a car driven by her mother Carole. Photographers caught them near Windsor Castle.

In the photograph, the Princess of Wales is depicted wearing sunglasses, so it is still difficult to understand whether she had plastic surgery - such rumors also circulated.

Previously, Kate's fans were concerned about the behavior of William and his relatives. Thus, William recently abruptly canceled a planned meeting for “personal reasons.” Many associated this with the fact that his wife Kate Middleton became ill (or even died). Shortly after this, Queen Camilla was found in tears - this was also associated with Kate Middleton's health, and the rumors strengthened.

Kate Middleton is not the only member of the royal family who has suddenly discovered health problems: they were also found in 75-year-old King Charles III, who is being treated for cancer and recently underwent surgery. At the same time, Karl, despite his diagnosis, appears in public.
