EBN- Princess of Wales underwent a successful abdominal surgery in the London Clinic on Tuesday.
Catherine will remain there for 10 to 14 days, Kensington Palace revealed in a statement issued on Wednesday.
“The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate. She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible, and her wish that her personal medical information remains private,” the statement reads.
“Kensington Palace will, therefore, only provide updates on Her Royal Highness’s progress when there is significant new information to share.”
“The Princess of Wales wishes to apologise to all those concerned for the fact that she has to postpone her upcoming engagements. She looks forward to reinstating as many as possible, as soon as possible.”
The palace refused to confirm what Catherine was being treated for but confirmed the condition was non-cancerous.
There will now be no international travel for the prince and princess in the coming months.
The Prince of Wales will postpone a number of his engagements as he supports their three children, and he will not undertake official duties while his wife is in hospital or during the immediate period after her return home.
