Princess Kate of Wales was spotted for the first time since her mysterious hospitalization news broke out.

The leading member of the royal family is said to have undergone surgery on her abdomen but no other details were revealed in terms of what exactly went down.

As per reports from local media outlets, the Palace has been giving out statements on her behalf after all sorts of weird and wild conspiracies took center stage in terms of where she might be and how she suddenly disappeared.

Therefore, the palace had no choice but to reassure royal fans who were starting to scramble to figure out where she was exactly. Others felt her absence at leading royal events was deeply felt as her husband Prince William tried to fill in the gap.

In the recently published photos by media outlet TMZ, she can be seen donning a giant pair of black shades while riding in the front seat of her Black SUV. This was driven by her mother, Carole Middleton, near Windsor Castle in the United Kingdom.

The royal was admitted to The London Clinic on January 16 for the treatment of a secretive non-cancerous condition. The last time she was seen was on Christmas Day when she was pictured attending the Morning Service with her husband by her side.
