Princess of Wales Recovers from Surgery, Continues Work Behind the Scenes

Prince William adjusts workload to care for family as three most senior royals temporarily step back from public duties.

  • The Princess of Wales is recovering from major abdominal surgery and is not expected to return to public duties until after Easter.
  • Despite her recovery, she will continue to work behind the scenes, maintaining contact with her charities and the Shaping Us campaign, which focuses on the importance of the first five years of childhood.
  • Prince William will be taking over the school run for their three children and adjusting his workload to care for his family.
  • The Princess's recovery and the simultaneous absence of King Charles due to a prostate procedure means the three most senior royals will be absent from public duties for a short period.
  • Despite the reduced number of working royals, the remaining members of the royal family, including Queen Camilla, Princess Anne, and the Dukes and Duchesses of Edinburgh and Gloucester, will continue their public engagements.
