Listen: Emily reacts as Princess Kate admitted to hospital
The Princess of Wales recovering after surgery on her abdomen
Hi, Royal Clubbers. We have just had the announcement from Kensington Palace that the Princess of Wales was admitted to hospital yesterday for planned abdominal surgery. Princess Kate is expected to remain at The London Clinic for 10 to 14 days, before returning home to continue her recovery. She is unlikely to return to royal duties until after Easter, and the palace has said they'll be keeping us posted on any updates.
I've shared my reaction in the voicenote below. And please be sure to look out for my Wednesday newsletter I will be posting later (exclusively for our paid subscribers) in which I'll be writing about the news in greater detail.
10-14 days in hospital sounds very serious. I had brain and spinal surgery and was in hospital for only a week.
My thoughts and prayers are with Princess Catherine and her family.
