Kate was spotted for the first time after surgery.

Kate was photographed in a car with her mom for the first time in months. The Princess of Wales has not been seen in public since December. Rumors and conspiracy theories have arisen as a result of her absence from public engagements until Easter, Prince William's last-minute cancellation of his relative's funeral due to "a personal matter," and her two week-long hospitalization at Windsor. There were a lot of theories about the demise of her marriage to William. "We were very clear from the beginning that the Princess of Wales was out until after Easter and we would only be providing updates when something was significant," the statement said. The photo of Middleton shows that the princess is in recovery, but it has not done enough to alleviate public concern about her health. The person in the pictures is a stunt double, according to some online.
