A “happy, healthy, and relaxed” Kate Middleton and husband Prince William were reportedly spotted visiting a local farm shop over the weekend, but — bizarrely — no photos were captured of the royals during their rumored outing.
Onlookers claimed to the Sun that the Prince and Princess of Wales made a stop at a farm shop in Windsor after watching their children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, play sports.
And while the rumored sighting may provide some royalists with comfort and a collective sigh of relief that Middleton, 42, is doing well, it also seems to raise more questions than before.
“After all the rumors that had been going ’round, I was stunned to see them there,” one eyewitness shared with the outlet. “Kate was out shopping with William, and she looked happy and she looked well.”
“The kids weren’t with them, but it’s such a good sign she was healthy enough to pop down to the shops,” the source added of Middleton’s visit to the Windsor Farm Shop, located just a five-minute drive from Windsor Castle.
The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.
The lack of photographic proof documenting Middleton’s wholesome outing fails to quash whispers about her well-being following her planned abdominal surgery on Jan. 17.
Since returning home from her two-week stint at the hospital, the royal has remained largely out of the limelight, opting to recover in her home at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor.

In her absence from public life, several conspiracy theories have taken root, which only intensified after she posted a heavily edited UK Mother’s Day image that received a “kill notice” from major press agencies.
Last week, Middleton’s senior staffers claimed they had not seen or spoken to the princess in recent weeks, and were not aware of her health woes until after her surgery.
The princess was last seen in an official capacity on Christmas Day while attending church in Sandringham, England.
The mom of three is not expected to return to her public duties until after Easter, which falls on March 31, 2024.
