Princess Catherine underwent planned and successful abdominal surgery, necessitating a hospital stay of up to two weeks. Kensington Palace clarified the condition is not related to cancer, and her recuperation may extend for about three months. Prince Charles will temporarily abstain from official duties while his wife is in the hospital and during her subsequent recovery. The announcement coincided with Buckingham Palace revealing that King Charles III will undergo treatment for a benign enlarged prostate, requiring a visit to the hospital next week. The privacy of medical details was emphasized in the statements, with Catherine expressing a desire to maintain normalcy for her children. After hospital discharge, she is expected to recover at home in Windsor with Prince William and their three children. Updates on her health will be shared only when significant new information arises. The princess, 42, is currently at the London Clinic, the UK’s largest independent private hospital, near Regent’s Park in London.
