Kensington Palace in London said statement On Monday, Catherine, 42, was “making good progress.” They previously said her procedure was “planned” and that the problem was “non-cancerous.”
It is expected that the future queen will need a long period of time to recover. She is not scheduled to return to her official duties until after Easter.
Palace officials are usually tight-lipped about the health of royals, and although few details have been revealed, it came as a surprise when, earlier this month, the palace made successive health announcements. Charles, 75, is said to have gone public with his problems as a way to encourage other men with symptoms to get their prostate checked.
It's been an eventful period for Royal Health news. Last week, Sarah Ferguson, Prince Andrew's ex-wife, said she had been diagnosed with malignant melanoma, a type of skin cancer.
