Princess Kate considers permanently stepping away from royal duties?

Kate Middleton a is reportedly considering a permanent life out of the spotlight following chaotic few months.

The Princess of Wales has been absent from the public eye since undergoing abdominal surgery in January and is expected to remain so until after Easter.

Now, a source told National Enquirer that the mom of three is very much liking the much-needed break from royal duties, prompting her to continue to push back her return date.

“Kate’s desperate struggle with the constant pressures of life in the royal fishbowl has clearly taken a terrible toll on her physical and mental health.”

“She spent weeks staying out of the public eye after her operations — and it’s only strengthened her resolve to quit,” explained the insider.

However, Prince William is less than pleased with his wife’s decision, owing to her agreeing to the commitment when she married the royal heir.

“William is beside himself over her decision,” the source told the outlet. “He’s stunned his wife could ever consider such a move.”

“He made sure she knew what she was getting into when she married him and she’s done a brilliant job,” they added. “He’s concerned she’s become emotionally unstable, but she insists she’s finally seeing clearly!”
