Kate Middleton marked International Women’s Day by sharing three throwback photos on Instagram. The Princess of Wales, currently recovering from abdominal surgery, was featured in the images posted by her and Prince William's official account.

The first photo showed Kate shaking hands with Sarah Goldson, who directed the Wimbledon Ball Boy and Girl training. This initiative aims to develop life skills among young people, with 280 participants selected from local schools.

Another picture depicted Kate walking with Bianca Sakol, the founder of Sebby’s Corner, a baby bank providing essentials for children in need. The third photo featured Kate with Dr. Gubby Ayida, CEO of Evelina London Children’s Charity, and another snap with Professor Uzo Iwobi, founder of RCC | Race Council Cymru.

Since her surgery in January, Kate has been out of the public eye, sparking various conspiracy theories. However, the palace clarified that updates would only be provided for significant developments and confirmed that Kate is 'doing well.'

Despite her absence, Kate remains a prominent figure in people's thoughts. Prince William has received numerous well wishes for his wife during recent public appearances. Royal experts emphasize Kate's importance to the monarchy, likening her to the late Queen Elizabeth in terms of significance.
