The Princess of Wales is continuing her recovery process at her home in Windsor

Royal Family aides have hit out at the "madness of social media" in a new statement on the Princess of Wales's health.

Social media platforms have been rife with speculation surrounding Princess Kate's health.


In January, the royal underwent planned abdominal surgery and remained in the London Clinic for two weeks following the operation.

The Princess of Wales has now returned to her home in Windsor as she continues her recovery process.

Royal aides have blasted the speculation surrounding Kate's health condition, according to The Sun.

They said: "We were really clear from the start we weren't going to provide a running commentary on the Princess of Wales's health and only provide significant updates.

"Obviously, we've seen the madness of social media and that is not going to change our strategy.

"There has been much on social media but the Princess has a right to privacy and asks the public to respect that."

It comes as Prince William pulling out of a memorial service at the last minute for personal reasons sparked speculation surrounding Kate.

Kensington Palace said on Tuesday that the Princess of Wales continued to be doing well in her recovery process.

Princess Kate is not expected to return to public duties until after Easter.

Kensington Palace said: "We were very clear from the outset that the Princess of Wales was out until after Easter and Kensington Palace would only be providing updates when something was significant."

The Prince of Wales returned to public duties on Thursday in London after missing the Thanksgiving service on Tuesday.

Prince William then travelled to Wales on Friday for St. David's Day.

The royal has been undertaking sporadic engagements over the last few weeks after taking a short break from public duties following Princess Kate's operation in January.
