Signs of what to come: Princess Kate tried to hide pain behind smile in last outing before surgery

Kate Middleton exhibited signs of discomfort during her recent public appearance before her scheduled abdominal surgery.

The Princess of Wales participated in the royal family’s Christmas Day outing at Sandringham last month, showing subtle grimaces, as noted by body language expert Jess Ponce III, according to a report by “The News”.

While descending the stairs with her children, Kate’s overall demeanor appeared pleasant, but moments of unease were evident upon close observation. The future Queen underwent pre-planned abdominal surgery at a private London Clinic this week and is expected to stay in the hospital for a fortnight before continuing her recovery at home, according to a statement from Kensington Palace.

Despite moments of unease, Ponce highlighted Kate’s efforts to conceal her discomfort behind her evergreen smile as she engaged with the crowd. The mom of three maintained her composure, embodying a “true royal” according to Ponce, who praised her ability to present herself as unruffled by any underlying issues.

In moments when Kate was in motion, brief instances of unease were noted, but overall, she portrayed everything as being in perfect order, showcasing her ability to handle public appearances with grace.
