The Palace Denies ‘Nonsense’ Rumor Kate Middleton Was in a Coma After Abdominal Surgery

According to a palace source, a false report claimed that the Princess of Wales had ‘complications’ during her abdominal surgery.

Despite recent claims suggesting that Princess Kate underwent abdominal surgery and was placed in an induced coma due to complications, a palace insider has reportedly refuted these rumors. Following reports of the 42-year-old’s hospitalization a journalist falsely asserted on the widely-watched Spanish program Fiesta that the Princess of Wales encountered unforeseen issues during the operation. The journalist alleged “The doctors had to take drastic decisions at that moment because of the complications that arose. The decision was to put her in an induced coma. They had to intubate her. There were serious complications that they didn’t expect because the operation went well but the postoperative period didn’t go so well.”

However a source close to the palace has dismissed these claims asserting that there is no truth to the reports of Princess Kate being placed in an induced coma. The palace insider emphasized that the surgery was performed without any complications and that the princess is currently recuperating well. The source further clarified that Princess Kate’s condition did not necessitate an induced coma and she was not intubated following the procedure.

In light of the conflicting reports royal watchers and concerned individuals await official updates from Buckingham Palace regarding Princess Kate’s health and the details surrounding her recent hospitalization. The dissemination of inaccurate information underscores the challenges of navigating the delicate balance between respecting privacy and addressing public curiosity surrounding the royal family’s medical matters. As speculation continues to swirl reliable sources are essential in discerning the accurate narrative amidst the sea of conjecture and hearsay.

The journalist also claimed that Princess Kate’s life was at “serious risk” following the surgery and implied that extensive arrangements were made for her recovery at home practically converting an entire hospital for her use. However a source from the palace refuted these allegations reported by the British publication.

“It’s completely baseless” the palace insider stated. “The journalist made no effort to verify any of the information with anyone within the royal household. It’s entirely fabricated, and to put it politely it’s completely untrue.”

Kate’s admission to the hospital came as a surprise to many, despite Kensington Palace’s reassurance in their announcement on January 17 that her surgery was pre-planned. Furthermore the palace confirmed the success of the procedure.

“Her Royal Highness underwent scheduled abdominal surgery” the statement stated. “The surgery was deemed successful and it is anticipated that she will be hospitalized for a period of ten to fourteen days before returning home to continue her recovery. In line with current medical advice it is unlikely that she will resume public engagements until after Easter.”

The statement also acknowledged that Kate anticipated inquiries about her health but expressed her desire for privacy.

Acknowledging the anticipated interest in the announcement Kensington Palace emphasized the Princess of Wales’ desire for maintaining her children’s normalcy and safeguarding the confidentiality of her medical information. Consequently the palace pledged to provide updates on Her Royal Highness’s condition only in the event of significant developments. This stance underscores Kate’s commitment to shielding her children from undue disruptions to their routine while prioritizing her personal privacy regarding medical matters. By opting for a selective approach to updates the palace aims to balance the public’s curiosity with Kate’s wish for discretion ensuring that any disclosures regarding her health are made judiciously and with utmost respect for her privacy and well-being.

Kate and Prince William are parents to Prince George Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Prince William aged 41 and next in line to the throne purportedly rearranged his commitments to be by Kate’s side during her recuperation from the scheduled surgery. This week Kate’s departure from the hospital was confirmed indicating her progress in recovery.
