Kate Middleton has not appeared in public since Christmas as she recovers from abdominal surgery
Kate Middleton's absence from public view has fueled conspiracies that the Princess of Wales is in a coma after abdominal surgery.
Kate, Princess of Wales, has not been seen in public since Christmas and panic among royal fans and supporters is through the roof.
Adding to their concerns, William, Prince of Wales, was removed from the memorial service for the late King Constantine of Greece an hour before the event was scheduled to take place.
Although Kensington Palace assured the public that William's last-minute absence had nothing to do with Kate Middleton or King Charles' health problems, panic around his mysterious condition is growing.

Speaking on the topic, royal commentator Katie Nicholl said GB News He said everyone expected William to not only appear but also speak about Kate's health at the memorial service.
“If royalty leaves an hour before an event, it just doesn't happen,” he said. “They don't like to disappoint people.”
Nicholl added: “They are never late, let alone withdrawing from something. So to withdraw something for an important member of the family, as I said he was William's godfather, was absolutely unusual.”
He went on to highlight that the Princess of Wales “has not been seen since Christmas Day” and added: “She has undergone clearly very serious abdominal surgery.”

“I think a 13-night stay in hospital indicates the seriousness of that, who we understand won't be seen until well after Easter,” Nicholl said. “It's obviously worrying.”
“I should add that when we received that statement from the palace, it was advised with a sort of subsequent guidance memo that the Princess of Wales is continuing her recovery, which I think is intended as an assurance, obviously not an exaggeration. “The public panicked.”
