It really doesn’t look like her in the picture, though.

And the Daily Mail again.

🤔

News or gossip? I thought the British Press were respecting Catherine's privacy at the moment.

Why can't they leave her alone to get well in private.

I agree think it's the foreign press.

And Gransnet. ☹

I’m sure that when Catherine is deemed fit enough to return to her public roles, it will be very carefully managed.

Nothing too arduous or lengthy, and probably very low key.

I am concerned for her return to public work, the media will
be a nightmare

That has been worrying me. They will be examining her in detail from head to foot and noting every little thing. She is such a public figure, so elegant and beautiful, any change will be highlighted. The family need to pull together and protect her as best they can.

I’m still known by the name I was Christened and registered with, nothing disrespectful there

I hope Catherine is feeling better. She’s clearly had significant surgery

I expect this morning the Princess of Wales and her mother have got bigger things to worry about than TMZ

(Carole’s brother Gary Goldsmith went into the Big Brother House last night and will be all over the ITV network…)

Why is Catherine still being called Kate Middleton?

The modern age, not always kind or generous, or respectful to people, can you imagine our late Queen being called anything other the Princess Elizabeth.
Why do people also think that its OK to shorten people's given names, I can't remember Princess Diana being called Di Spencer, ugh.
Manners cost nothing. Then again it is an American rag.

It’s not great news that she’s been papped whilst still recovering, when she obviously isn’t posing for the camera. Poor woman.

The picture was apparently published in America. They don’t respect privacy there.

and;
Kate was pictured wearing sunglasses in the passenger seat of a 4x4 Audi, which her mother Carole Middleton was driving near Windsor Castle. The photos were taken shortly before 9am, suggesting the mother and daughter were returning from the school run.

further to OP

The Princess of Wales has been pictured for the first time since undergoing abdominal surgery in January - after an American website published photos of her being driven by her mother near Windsor today.

The pictures were published by US gossip website TMZ but not in the UK after Kensington Palace appealed for her to be able to recuperate in private.

It is the first time that the princess has been seen in public at all since she celebrated Christmas at Sandringham with Prince William, their children and the rest of the Royal Family.

Paparazzi poor woman, not sure it will be printed here

Hope she is okay. It is horrible recovering from a major op, especially if you are in the public eye.
