Seeing as the sporadic and formal updates about her recovery did little to stymie the gossip mill, an official picture of the Princess of Wales has been posted\u2026 only to trigger a whole new batch of speculations.<\/p>\n<p>The United Kingdom celebrates Mother\u2019s Day on March 10 and so, Kensington Palace posted an image wherein Kate is seen sitting on a chair with a happy smile in place as she is hugged by Prince George while holding Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The cheerful picture of Kate with her children was taken by Prince William in Windsor earlier this week, as shared by a palace spokesman.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C4U_IqTNaqU\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

As highlighted by many theorists, they are just not ready to \u201cbuy it\u201d that all is hunky dory with the Princess of Wales.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-why-is-kate-middleton-not-wearing-her-wedding-and-engagement-rings-in-first-picture-post-surgery\">Why is Kate Middleton not wearing her wedding and engagement rings in first picture post-surgery?<\/h2>\n<p>Before you join the rumor train, it would be prudent to acknowledge that this is not the first time Kate has been snapped without her rings \u2014 she has been seen without her precious jewels during a few royal visits to hospitals for health and safety reasons. She also leaves them behind when there is a risk of her Welsh gold wedding ring and her engagement ring (that was once worn by Princess Diana) sustaining damage or getting lost i.e., when she takes part in sporting events, like the Commonwealth Games swimming trials in August 2022.<\/p>\n<p>And if the lure of rumors hasn\u2019t swayed you yet, it would be a good idea to realize that Kate has a perfectly good reason to not wear the rings now either \u2014 she is recovering and\/or wearing the rings is not comfortable with the after-effects of the surgery. The picture shows her in a relaxed setting, not wearing just the rings but<em> no other piece of jewelry<\/em> either. A palace source (via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.townandcountrymag.com\/society\/tradition\/a60149323\/kate-middleton-photo-no-wedding-engagement-ring\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Town and Country Mag<\/em><\/a>)has also answered the query about the missing rings by highlighting the fact that when the picture was taken, Kate was at home.<\/p>\n<p>Will that quell the rising tide of brand-new rumours? Nope. The picture has evidently backfired, bringing more questions to the palace\u2019s doorsteps and barely answering the existing mysteries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img
