Princess Kate filmed in public for the first time since Christmas
The Princess of Wales has been filmed for the first time since Christmas, after her absence sparked wild global speculation on her whereabouts.
Kate Middleton looked happy and relaxed in recently published footage of her shopping trip with her husband, Prince William.
In footage exclusively obtained by TMZ and The Sun, the royal was filmed dressed comfortably in a hoodie and dark leggings, as she carried her shopping and walked alongside Prince William on their way to the car park.
This is the first time the royal has been filmed in public since her "planned abdominal surgery", aside from two blurry paparazzi pictures of her in the backseat of a car, and reports that she was spotted out with her kids on Saturday morning.
Witnesses at Princess Kate's favourite farm shop reportedly said that she looked “happy, relaxed and healthy” as she ventured from her home in Windsor to the nearby store.
“Kate was out shopping with William and she looked happy and she looked well," witnesses said at the time.
“The kids weren’t with them but it’s such a good sign she was healthy enough to pop down to the shops.”
The Princess' whereabouts has been the topic of speculation for weeks, with the Palace having to speak out against the wild conspiracy theories on social media.
Her last public appearance was on December 25 during the royal family’s traditional walk to the Christmas morning service in Sandringham.
