PRINCE WILLIAM’s ailing wife, Princess Kate, is planning to step back from royal duties — and her shocking decision is rocking her marriage and the monarchy, worried palace insiders tell The National ENQUIRER.
While the 42-year-old Princess of Wales hasn’t officially retired, Kate keeps pushing back the date when she’ll return to public life after at least two severe surgeries in early January that sources squeal were linked to abdominal cancer and an eating disorder.
“Kate’s desperate struggle with the constant pressures of life in the royal fishbowl has clearly taken a terrible toll on her physical and mental health,” says a senior palace courtier.
“She’s spent weeks staying out of the public eye after her operations — and it’s only strengthened her resolve to quit.”
The future queen of England has only been spotted once since entering the posh London Clinic, which is known for cutting-edge cancer treatments. She was snapped on March 4 — looking worn and haggard — in the passenger seat of a car being driven by her mother, Carole Middleton.
Kate’s first official engagement was slated for the June 15 Trooping the Colour ceremony — nearly FIVE MONTHS after her surgeries — but that has been canceled with no word on when she’ll return to work.
