Princess Kate appearing on the balcony at Trooping the Colour would be "bizarre," a royal commentator has claimed.
Kate Middleton has been out of the public eye since and stepped back from royal duties this year after she was diagnosed with cancer.
The princess has been recovering in private but there has been speculation over whether she could appear alongside her family on the balcony at Trooping the Colour this weekend.
Last week, the Princess of Wales wrote that she hopes to be back in her public role representing the Irish Guards “very soon”.

A source close to the princess told The Daily Beast that fans should not over analyse the note from the future queen.

PAAnother said: "I think this idea that Kate is suddenly going to pop up on the balcony on Saturday is far-fetched.
"It would be wonderful, of course, but more than slightly bizarre given that she bowed out of the colonel’s review.”
In previous years, the future Queen has been accompanied by her husband, Prince William, and their three kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
Speaking about the likelihood that William will bring the children, royal author Katie Nicholl told Entertainment Tonight: "They’ve been up there several times now.

"They’re not working members of the Royal Family yet, but they will be," she continued.
"Prince George is a future king, so for the public to be able to see George, Charlotte, and Louis on occasions like this is really quite important."
King Charles has confirmed that he will be attending the event despite his own cancer diagnosis.
The whole family have appeared in previous years
PAHowever some parts of the annual event have been changed and viewers will see the King riding in a horse-drawn carriage alongside his wife Queen Camilla instead of on horseback, according to the palace.
In past years, Kate has taken part in the parade and watched the military flyover from the balcony of Buckingham Palace alongside her family.
Kate's last in-person public appearance was last December when she joined members of the royal family at a Christmas Day church service in Sandringham.
She later went into the hospital for a planned abdominal surgery in which they discovered that she had a form of cancer.
