Catherine, Princess of Wales, is currently in the hospital after undergoing abdominal surgery. The procedure was planned and successful, but the princess is expected to remain in the hospital for 10 to 14 days and will not resume her royal duties for months.

Kensington Palace has not provided further details about her condition but stated that it is not cancer-related. The palace also mentioned that the Princess of Wales, aged 42, will unlikely return to public duties until after Easter based on current medical advice.

During her hospitalization, the Prince of Wales will not be carrying out any official duties, and the palace will only provide updates when there is significant new information to share.

The surgery, which took place on Tuesday, is significant enough to keep her in the hospital for up to two weeks, and it is expected that recuperation could take as long as three months. The palace stressed that the princess wants her personal medical information to remain private and hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible.

After being discharged, the princess is expected to recover at home in Windsor, where she lives with Prince William and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

She is currently recuperating at the London Clinic, near Regent’s Park in central London, which is described as the UK’s largest independent private hospital.

TV cameras and reporters were seen gathering near the hospital after the announcement on Wednesday afternoon. Once discharged, the princess is expected to recover at home in Windsor, where she and Prince William live with their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
