Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Catherine, Princess of Wales is 'doing well' following abdominal surgery
Caption: Catherine, Princess of Wales is 'doing well' following abdominal surgery. It was announced on Wednesday that the Royal had been admitted to The London Clinic on Tuesday for planned abdominal surgery. It’s since been reported that the operation was a success. Kensington Palace officials said on Wednesday that Catherine is expected to "remain in hospital for ten to fourteen days, before returning home to continue her recovery”. She will not return to public duties until after Easter. It’s believed Prince William will also postpone several royal engagements and won't attend any official duties while his wife is in hospital. It’s likely the royals will miss their annual trip to the BAFTA Film Awards in February as well as a visit to Rome this spring they reportedly had in the works. Royal aides will provide a revised schedule for William in the coming days. Catherine’s last public appearance was on Christmas Day when she joined in the traditional royal family walk to church along with William, their three children and other members of the royal family.
