The health of the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, has been the subject of constant speculation since her abdominal surgery last January.
The princess’s extended absence from public life fueled a wave of theories and rumors, exacerbated by the distribution of a photo by TMZ that some claimed was not Kate.
Kensington Palace has been tight-lipped about the situation, raising more questions than answers.
The confusion intensified when the princess’s participation in the traditional Trooping the Colour, scheduled for June 8, was announced and then denied.
Amid pessimistic speculation on social media about her recovery, statements by royal biographer Robert Jobson have drawn attention.
What has Robert Jobson said about Kate Middleton’s health?
In an interview with Hello! magazine, Jobson shared his impressions of Kate’s recovery, suggesting that although she’s back to her routine and functioning well, she prefers not to rush her return to public life.
According to sources close to the princess, her recovery is positive, but she is not yet 100 percent.
“From what I hear, Kate has settled back into a routine and is functioning well, but she doesn’t want to rush things. I have spoken to people close to her and I think she is recovering well but not quite 100 percent,” the writer said.
Jobson also revealed that the future queen consort values this quiet time to focus on her recovery and enjoy moments with her children, which has been crucial to her spirits.
“She also feels fortunate to be able to have this time with the children and put her recovery first.”
Emily Nash, meanwhile, stressed the importance of family for Kate, who has used these weeks to be with her three children, George, Charlotte and Louis.
“Kate may not have been at school or sports, but she has been able to spend a lot of time at home with her children over the past few weeks and they will have been such a tonic for her.”
“Her family is absolutely the center of her world, so having George, Charlotte and Louis at home with her has no doubt really lifted her spirits.”
The story surrounding the Princess of Wales’ health continues to unfold, and as the public awaits her reappearance, it is clear that her wellbeing and her family are her priority.
