IT was a long 13 days for Catherine, Duchess of Wales. Following abdominal surgery for an undisclosed cause, the 42-year-old recovered at the posh London Clinic. While her husband, Prince William, popped by for a visit — as did her father-in-law King Charles III, who was at the same facility to treat an enlarged prostate — her children Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and 5-year-old Prince Louis were not allowed. “For the safety of our patients, we do not permit any children or babies to visit,” the clinic advises, noting that special requests “must be approved by the matrons.”
So it was especially sweet when Kate was released on Jan. 29 and allowed to return to Adelaide Cottage, on the grounds of Windsor Castle, where she will continue to recover before returning to royal duties after Easter.“For Kate, it’s good to be home in her own bed, surrounded by her family and other familiar things,” an insider tells Star. “Though everyone at the hospital was amazing and made sure she had the best care.”
