It looks like Catherine, Princess of Wales, is on the final stretch of her road to recovery. Kate left Windsor for the first time post-surgery on February 8. She headed to Sandringham in Norfolk to join William and their kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, at their country home, Anmer Hall. “Catherine is recovering well,” a source told the Daily Mail. “She was looking forward to a change of scene and will be able to take it easy in Norfolk while the children let off steam with William.”
Another sign that Kate is firmly on the mend was William, Prince of Wales’ return to royal duties. He postponed his engagements to be by Kate’s side during her illness. However, William was back at work on February 7 to present medals to those named in the New Year Honors List, which celebrates outstanding public service. And William was a consummate pro. “It is a difficult time for him, but it wasn’t spoken about. With all the royals, it is stiff upper lip and duty as normal, isn’t it?” an honoree told People.
It’s been a tough time for William. In addition to Kate’s surgery, he’s been dealing with the shock of his father, King Charles III’s cancer diagnosis. However, William’s been taking it all in his stride. “He is coping remarkably well considering his wife had surgery, and he only found out his father’s news recently,” a friend of the couple said.
