Kate Middleton is eager to resume her public duties, but Prince William is urging her to focus on her recovery, according to recent reports.
An insider has provided an update on the Princess of Wales' health and her potential return to royal engagements. The source noted that Kate is feeling conflicted about making future appearances; she wants to express gratitude to her supporters but recognizes the need to prioritize her recovery.
"She’s been deeply touched by the letters and support from around the world," a source told Closer. "But this has also made her feel somewhat guilty and pressured to give back to the public."
The source continued, "Kate feels torn. She knows she needs to step out of the spotlight to focus on her health and be with her family, but her royal duties also bring her immense joy and contribute to her mental well-being."
Prince William has advised Kate not to rush her return, stressing that she should take all the time she needs to rest. He cautioned that even occasional appearances could be exhausting and that she might regret returning too soon.
"Kate understands William’s concerns and wants to follow his advice," the insider added. "However, she worries that the longer she stays out of the limelight, people might get used to other royals taking her place. William has reassured her that this will not happen and that the public will eagerly await her return, promising that the reception will surpass her expectations."
Fans grew concerned for Kate’s well-being when Kensington Palace announced she would not attend the Trooping the Colour rehearsal, especially as King Charles himself is undergoing cancer treatment. Recently, an insider claimed, "Kate's diary for this year is empty, with no plans scheduled."
