Kate Middleton's health has been a point of concern for many fans around the world. The Princess of Wales recently underwent stomach surgery in London, as confirmed by Kensington Palace, and is now recovering.

Her spouse, Prince William, may find her in the hospital for about two weeks. He is said to be delaying a number of his personal commitments while Middleton is still in the medical facility and for the first few days after her release in order to balance caring for his children and his wife.

Kate Middleton has not yet met her three children while confined to the hospital, while her recuperation from her abdominal surgery carries on, ET has learned. The Kensington Palace announced Kate Middleton's surgery in the following statement:

"The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate. She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible; and her wish that her personal medical information remains private.
"Kensington Palace will, therefore, only provide updates on Her Royal Highness' progress when there is significant new information to share.
"The Princess of Wales wishes to apologise 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."

Some fans have raised concern regarding Kate Middleton's health

While fans from around the world are pouring in their wishes for the Princess of Wales, some on social media have come up with conspiracy theories:

"Kate Middleton is about to go through what Diana went through but worse because she has nothing to go back to. Her whole family is broke and bankrupt, she’s not as beloved by her public or even a media darling. At least Diana had agency and knew she could rely on her influence," was one tweet.

Many fans are comparing Kate Middleton's situation to that of Princess Diana:

Some fans tried to use humor to express their suspicions:

Fans around the world are puzzled and looking for the truth:


We wish the Princess of Wales a speedy recovery and hope she gets back on her feet as soon as possible.
