Kate Middleton has been admitted to the hospital for a “planned abdominal surgery,” a statement from Kensington Palace read on Wednesday.
The royal family shared the news on social media, revealing that the Princess of Wales, 42, went to the facility on Tuesday.
While the surgery was “successful,” she will remain in the hospital for 10 to 14 days before “returning home to continue her recovery.”
However, she is “unlikely to return to public duties until after Easter.”
“The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate,” the memo went on.
“She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible.”
They added: “Her wish that her personal medick information remain private.”
The Palace then noted that they will “only provide updates” on Middleton’s progress “when there is significant new information to share.”
The Duchess of Cambridge “wishes to apologize to all those concerned for the fact that she has to postpone her upcoming engagements.”
“She looks forward to reinstating as many as possible, as soon as possible,” the statement concluded.
