Kate Middleton sparked concern for her wellbeing after Kensington Palace released first official photo of the princess following her abdominal surgery.

According to royal author Roya Nikkhah, the photo was taken by Prince William at Windsor earlier this week.

Kate also thanked her well-wishers for support in the caption, wishing fellow Britons a Mothering Sunday.

“Thank you for your kind wishes and continued support over the last two months,” it read. “Wishing everyone a Happy Mother’s Day. C”.

In the photo, Kate could be seen sitting on a garden chair surrounded by beaming Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

Fans were enthralled at the first glimpse of the future Queen of England as she continues her recovery from abdominal surgery from nearly two months ago.

Others raised concern for her, with one saying: “She looks so weak.”

“What is going on??? She’s so weak she can’t stand and to make a public appearance she has had to wrap herself in her children like a blanket She’s frail …what on earth has happened??” another expressed.
