She recently took a break from public appearances to focus on her recovery. Middleton was released from The London Clinic on January 29th after her surgery. The Princess of Wales is resting and recovering while her three children care for her. 

According to a source close to the royal family, 10-year-old Prince George, 8-year-old Princess Charlotte, and 5-year-old Prince Louis have been very thoughtful during their mom’s time of need. “They’re doing everything they can to ensure she feels comfortable,” explained the source. “Kate’s favorite flowers, comfy blankets and pillows, and her go-to snacks fill their house at Adelaide Cottage.” The family is thrilled to have her back home. The kids even made homemade “get well soon” cards to welcome her home from the hospital. “She needs to rest, but Kate doesn’t have the heart to turn them away,” the source noted. Recovering from surgery is never pleasant. However, having your children care for you can make the experience a little brighter. 

Kate Middleton’s entire family is taking care of her.

Not only are her three kids paying extra attention to their recovering mom’s needs, but they’re also each putting a personal spin on her care. They have been telling Kate stories, bringing her tea, and making her soup. According to a source from OK! Charlotte even arranged a spa day. Prince William is also helping out at home and attending royal events solo. He is taking care of cooking for Middleton and the family. According to a source, he is pretty good at it, too, whipping up oatmeal, smoothies, roast chicken, and even Kate’s favorite curry. The source added that William has a new appreciation for everything Kate does.  

Middleton and the rest of the royal family want to keep her health issues relatively private. Middleton underwent planned surgery, and while the details are unknown, it was not cancer-related, according to Kensington Palace (via Huffington Post). Recovery is never easy, but Middleton’s children will ensure she is comfortable and cared for. Required rest may have some upsides for a typically busy person like Middleton. According to the source, she is reading and streaming her favorite shows, such as ‘Bridgerton’ and ‘The Kardashians,’ and is secretly enjoying her downtime.
