Kate Middleton Is Expected to Soft Launch Herself During an Easter ...

In case you hadn't noticed, Kate Middleton's been on a prolonged and much-discussed break from royal duties following her abdominal surgery back in January. And despite Kensington Palace making it abundantly clear she'd be absent, that didn't stop everyone from fully spiraling. I mean, to be fair (!!!), *that* photoshopped pic and missing ring haven't helped!

Anyway, if you're wondering exactly when the Princess of Wales will make her triumphant return back to the spotlight, we're happy to report it could actually be sooner than expected. According to the Telegraph, Kate "has not ruled out making a return to the public eye on Easter Sunday," and might even join the rest of the royals for their annual walk to St. George’s Chapel.

Btw, the Princess of Wales hasn't made a "final decision" on whether she'll join the family yet (a source noted there's "no confirmation either way"), but this definitely seems like a good opportunity to soft launch her return ahead of the royals' Easter break—especially since her attendance would be her first public appearance since Christmas Day sans the two times she was photographed by paparazzi in a car.

Meanwhile, an insider recently revealed to Us Weekly that people will have to wait for Kate to speak out about her health. Per a source close to her, she'll "likely be ready to talk about it" after Easter, when "doing a royal walkabout and meeting and greeting members of the public."

The insider then added that, "Nobody at the palace knows what the exact medical condition Kate has been suffering with. But Kate is a very transparent person. She’s not really capable of lying but at this stage and just wants her privacy."

Good! To! Know!!!!
