Kate Middleton, King Charles Back Home After Double Royal Health Scare

The British Palace was plagued with a double health scare involving King Charles and Kate Middleton in the past weeks, but fortunately, both royals are already home.

The Princess of Wales underwent a "planned abdominal surgery" on Jan. 16 at The London Clinic, Kensington Palace announced. After staying at the hospital for weeks, she is finally home to reunite with her husband, Prince William, and their three children -- Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.

"The Princess of Wales has returned home to Windsor to continue her recovery from surgery. She is making good progress," Kensington Palace said in a statement Monday, per People.

"The Prince and Princess wish to say a huge thank you to the entire team at The London Clinic, especially the dedicated nursing staff, for the care they have provided. The Wales family continues to be grateful for the well wishes they have received from around the world."

Kensington Palace announced the Duchess of Cambridge's surgery a day after the procedure. According to the announcement, "The surgery was successful," but Middleton would be spending 10 to 14 days more at the hospital for recovery. So, Middleton would not be out for any official duty until after Easter.

The British monarch was also discharged from a private London hospital after he got a scheduled treatment for his enlarged prostate, Buckingham Palace announced Monday, according to CBS News. The King had "rescheduled forthcoming public engagements to allow for a period of private recuperation."

British historian and writer Tessa Dunlop, author of "Elizabeth and Philip: A Story of Young Love, Marriage and Monarchy," previously weighed in on the double health scare that plagued the British monarchy. She said the King shared his health battle to protect his daughter-in-law, Middleton.

"It is highly unusual for the Royal Family to divulge private health matters. In that respect, the shared information about the King's enlarged prostate was unprecedented, and it was also canny," she told Mirror.

Dunlop explained that it was an "obvious strategy" to deflect the public's attention due to the lack of "real detail" behind Middleton's surgery. The Palace did not share why the Princes of Wales underwent abdominal surgery.

"Buckingham Palace doesn't do spontaneity; the release of a statement containing private matters about the King's health immediately after news of the Princess of Wales' major abdominal surgery was deliberate. The timing deflected from his daughter-in-law's major operation, likewise, the private detail concerning his prostate gave the public something else to think about."

Meanwhile, Prince Harry's biographer, Angela Levin, slammed him for not acknowledging his father and sister-in-law in his acceptance speech when he received his Living Legend of Aviation award. Levin claimed he could have said a sentence about the royal family's health scares and alleged that the Duke of Sussex's move was a "deliberate snub -- to prove that he's independent and doing very well."
