Princess of Wales: First official picture of Kate since surgery released.
The first official photo of the Princess of Wales since her abdominal surgery in January has been released by Kensington Palace.
The image, taken by Prince William earlier this week, shows the princess with her three children.
The photo is accompanied by a Mother’s Day message along with a “thank you” from the princess for the public’s “continued support”.
She is not expected to return to public duties before Easter.
In a message shared on social media, Catherine said: “Thank you for your kind wishes and continued support over the last two months.
“Wishing everyone a Happy Mother’s Day.”
The photo shows the princess sitting down, surrounded by Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis and Prince George, wrapping his arms around her.
Catherine, 42, spent 13 nights at the London Clinic, near Regent’s Park in central London, following the surgery.
Prince William visited his wife during her stay and she was visited by the King before he had his own treatment there.
The Palace has shared few details about her condition, which has garnered significant social media speculation, but has said it is not cancer-related.
