Catherine Princess of Wales has planned abdominal surgery | BBC News
Statement from Kensington Palace with regard to Katherine the Princess of Wales with me with me is Daniela Ralph our roal correspondent um so just take us through the statement yeah a surprise statement that came from Kensington Palace around 2:00 this afternoon completely out of the blue there had
Been no hint at all that the Princess of Wales had been in any way unwell uh the statement reads that she was admitted to the London Clinic here in central London um yesterday for Planned abdominal surgery um the surgery was successful but she’s expected to remain in hospital
For 10 to 14 days so up to up to two weeks recovering in hospital she’ll then return home to Windsor to recover um and she will not be carrying out uh any public duties at all during a recovery period which could take up to three months so clearly a serious condition
And a surprise development there um from the Princess of Wales absolutely no sign of any uh you know any difficulties any problems obviously saw over Christmas um sort of the usual pictures so as you said total Sur surprise yes I was at Sandringham on Christmas day so I saw
Her with my own eyes and she looked incredibly well and uh there has been no hint of any poor health at all from her um they’re not giving very much information from Kensington Palace as you would totally understand viewing it as a private medical matter it’s clearly
Serious she’s going to be in hospital uh for up to two weeks but the surgery was successful we have also been told that it’s not a non-cancerous condition that was being treated um she is not somebody that has been in poor health at all 42 years old extremely fit and healthy the
Only issues that have hospitalized her previously have been during her three pregnancies when she had uh hyperemesis gravidarum that’s extreme pregnancy sickness that meant she had to be hospitalized but other than that there have been no serious conditions that we’ve been made aware of at all um the
Statement does also say that they understand the prince and princess of Wales that there is going to be a huge amount of Interest here but they are very Keen to protect their privacy the medical privacy of The Princess and to look after their uh three young children
As well so they’ll only be providing updates when they see fit and when there’s something to say and clearly from that statement it looks like there’s going to be quite a long period of recuperation and any I mean there was talk this year of international you know travel with the couple clearly all
That’s going to be put on hold now yeah definitely um there was a mood that we were going to see much more of them this year and they were as you say doing a lot more international travel there was a trip actually planned to ity for them before Easter that now won’t be
Happening and I think the mood from the statement is that we won’t see very much at all of the prince and princess of Wales in the coming months Prince William will not be carrying out any public engagements at all while his wife is in hospital uh we’re also told that
He wants to spend as much time as possible with her when she’s back at Windsor recovering and helping to look after the children so he will cut back on his schedule as well and I don’t think we’ll be seeing um the Princess of Wales out on public duty doing any kind
Of raw engagement until after Easter okay Daniela Ralph our roal correspondent thank you

❤❤❤💐💐💐😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏
Getting her tubes tied?
Now try and beat that one nutmeg..
It's so upsetting to see so many young, fit people get unwell very suddenly recently. Hope her treatments are effective but I'm sure she is in safe hands. You are in our thoughts Kate.
Oh our Lord may the princess please gain a speedy healing ever now? Thank you.
She needs a year off.. 🌺
Prayers for Kate's rapid healing 🙏
Charles could not let Princess Kate be the concern of people for even a few hours. He has to be the center of attention. No one cares about his penis or how he pees. Remember he told everyone to go bugger themselves with coffee to cure cancer? Go take a coffee enema Chuckie and grow up.
💐🤗😍🥰
Щиро зичу ЇЇ Високості швидкого одужання. Хвилюємося за неї в Україні 🙏❤🇺🇦
From the Philippines, we wish the Princess of Wales a speedy recovery!
I will include her in my prayers. OMG. Our dearest loveliest Catherine, get well soon! ❤🙏
Hernia? Seems about right recovery time for that.
Must be all that housework she does? All that motherhood, you know lifting the kids, cooking cleaning etc. mad how the poor man will worship these free loaders yet step over a homeless person….. like a nightmare you can’t wake up from
It’s more royal theatre, what are that lot distracting us from……suddenly they’re ALL in the headlines? Ok yeah another coincidence
Privacy… oh the hypocrisy
Why is it such a surprise? A lot of women have planned surgery for abdominal problems.
Hopefully the Princess of Wales will be well soon, she is going to be a great Queen when the time comes.
Why is this even a big news item with two women talking about basically 'nothing', is beyond me. Have the press still not learned their lesson. The lady specifically asked for privacy, what's going on here goes completely against the grain. A huge shame and why is the presenter wearing black?
1:25 ”We've also been told that it is not a non-cancerous condition..", so in other words, it is cancerous?
Princess of Wales had An intestinal Obstruction also known as Bowel Obstruction which generally is a complication of Crohn’s Disease. This info is per an American Psychic … Psychic never mentioned Crohn’s …Kate with her two weeks in hospital, and several months rest and recuperation will be fine. King Charles will also have an excellent recovery
💝💝💝💝Speedy recovery HRH Princess Catherine. With prays, hugs and best wishes. Jehovah Rapha😇😇😇💞💞💞❤🩹❤🩹🙏🙏 We also wish that the surgery process goes smoothly for the King's health. God save the King.
Oh no! Anyway…
There are lots of questions to be asked of her but I guess they’ll have to wait a few weeks . KC also .
Prayers of recovery for the Princess of Wales, and her family. 💜🙏🙏
Please send my kindest regards to her and wish her better soon.
Shes so hot
The first bit of British news on the so-called 'British' Broadcasting Corporation in months, and naturally, it's about the Royal family. Why are we forced to pay for being ignored?
Remember this is caused by psychological torment resulting from Omid’s book that named Charles and Kate
Free Julian Assange
Timestamp 1:25 Presenter said 'Not a non-cancerous condition'. English is not my first language. But that sounds quite serious
I believe she is having her foot removed from her bottom.
Was it an NHS hospital? Haha yes we'll obviously not.
If it was planned, then why was she rushed to Hospital, in an Ambulance, with such a big Convoy of cars. I thought they wanted Privacy.
Speedy recovery to kate, but if it was Meghan the so called royals, media and their cronies would want to see her in the Grave, I only hope all of you racist British know that pain, sickness and death is for the poor, middle class and the rich so when all of you hating Meghan and wishing the worst things to happen to her and all the negative thoughts please remember when you're digging, digTWO PITS because you could fall in the one you digged for the person
Maybe an obstruction she had which is sudden and serious.
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Sounds like hernia surgery to me.
There must be something serious happening if they are building this story in the way they are. The royals are not that important these days
Oh, well, this is the first time you had a sexy princess… and you made her sick.
Hello! I help King and Princess from England get well soon God bless and God saved safe King and Princess. Come home safe saved meet family and love one.
Who the fuck care, just the brain dead PLEBS
✨💚✨ I hope HRH Princess of Wales recovers soon!
Princess Kate ….She could be pregnant….Hyperemesis Gravidarum!!??
It's a trial separation.
