Royals hit by double health scare as King and Kate need hospital treatment
The monarchy has been hit by a double health scare with the Princess of Wales in hospital after abdominal surgery and the King facing treatment for an enlarged prostate.
Kate – a future Queen – is expected to remain in hospital for 10 to 14 days and is set to be away from official duties for up to three months to give her time to recover.
The nature of the princess’s condition has not been revealed although Kensington Palace confirmed it was not cancerous.
It is serious enough, to be stepping temporarily back from official duties while his wife is in hospital and in the immediate aftermath while she recuperates.
