After a new update from hospital, our hearts go out to Kate Middleton’s children. š Sending strength and love at this difficult time
It has been 12 days since Princess Kate underwent abdominal surgery at the London Clinic. And for 12 days, her three young childrenāPrince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louisāhave not seen their mother. One would expect the little ones to visit their mom, but that hasnāt happened.

Prince William, having taken on full-time dad duties, has been seen leaving the Clinic through the back exit in his fancy electric Audi. Reports from theĀ SunĀ and theĀ Daily MailĀ claim that the prince has been visiting his wife daily. But what about their children?
And what about Kateās devoted parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, and her siblings Pippa Matthews and James Middleton? They share a close bond, with James even stating that Kate supported him during his battle with severe depression. Surely, they would want to see her too.
Itās not a matter of protecting the kids from intrusive media either. The press has agreed to respect Kateās privacy during her recovery. So, William or the Middletons could easily bring the children to visit their mom without any unwanted attention.

TheĀ SunĀ offers one possible explanation, stating that William and Kate want the childrenās lives to feel as normal as possible during this time. Thatās understandable on weekdays, but what about the weekend?
Surprisingly, the children did not visit their mother. Instead, they spent time at their grandparentsā home in Bucklebury, where, I assume, they enjoyed some countryside adventures. While being spoiled by their doting grandparents with sticky buns and sweet treats is lovely, isnāt a warm hug from their mom even better?
Considering the logistics, Kateās hospital is just a 45-minute drive from their home in Adelaide Cottage. So, distance is certainly not an issue.
What adds to the strangeness of it all is the bigger picture. The Waleses are often portrayed as committed and loving parents, prioritizing their family above all else. They take off almost every school holiday to spend quality time with their children. A royal aide recently shared their motto: ā100 percent family first, day job second.ā

But does this motto align with the decision to keep the kids from visiting Kate? Itās true that children might find it scary and upsetting to see their mother in a hospital bed. However, I believe they would prefer to have a dose of their momās love and reassurance, seeing firsthand that she is on the road to recovery.
The argument that royals rarely visit each other in the hospital doesnāt hold up either. Apart from Prince Philip, the royal family members have not been in the hospital for years. It seems that the younger generation of royals is breaking with tradition, embracing a more emotionally open approach.
For instance, when Prince Charles arrived at the London Clinic, he made a beeline for his daughter-in-lawās room. Even Queen Camilla visited her husband three times within 24 hours.

This deviation from normal Windsor protocol is surprising, especially during a time when all working members of the royal family should be pulling together. Perhaps itās time for some mystic intervention. Camilla might want to consider crystals, sage, and the expertise of a shaman to cleanse Buckingham Palace of any lingering negative energy or hex.
