Kate Middleton Spotted After Apologizing for Altered Mother’s Day Portrait
Kate Middleton was seen leaving Windsor Castle with Prince William, just hours after she issued an apology for altering a family photo shared on Mother’s Day. The couple was initially on their way to the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, a significant event attended by senior members of the royal family, including Queen Camilla and Princess Anne, as per a report by DailyMail.
However, it was later clarified that Kate was not heading back to royal duties but to a private appointment. The specifics of her destination remain unknown, but it was convenient enough to be on Prince William’s path into central London. William was seen arriving solo at the service scheduled for 2:45 pm, indicating that Kate had other plans.
During their departure from Windsor Castle, Kate was observed looking out of the window, while William seemed to be engrossed in his phone. The couple left the castle grounds in a blue Range Rover, which subsequently dropped William off at Westminster Abbey, leaving Kate to proceed to her appointment.
This unexpected sighting of Kate comes after a period of public absence following her abdominal surgery and a two-week stay at a private hospital in London in January. Her appearance was unanticipated, especially since she was not expected to be seen in public until after Easter. This period has been rife with rampant online speculation and conspiracy theories concerning the Princess of Wales’s health.
Amidst this, Kensington Palace faces growing calls to publish the original Mother’s Day photo. This request follows Kate’s admission and subsequent apology for editing the family portrait, which featured her with her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The incident has stirred considerable discussion and added an unexpected twist to the usual royal proceedings.
