Princess Catherine has reportedly been spotted out on a walk in the midst of conspiracy theories regarding her health in recent weeks.
The world has been gripped by the lack of information surrounding Princess Catherine's whereabouts recently, which wasn't helped by a poorly edited Mother's Day photo.
Despite online speculation about her whereabouts, given she hasn't been spotted in public since her abdominal surgery at the start of the year, it seems that a new sighting should end the rumors.
As reported by the Daily Mail, the Royal couple were reportedly seen at a farm shop around a mile from their Adelaide Cottage in Windsor on Saturday. The Prince and Princess of Wales had reportedly just watched their three children - George, 10, Charlotte, eight, and Louis, five - take part in sports.
The sighting at The Windsor Farm Shop will provide a much-needed boost to the British public who have been growing more concerned about the Princess' health amid a tsunami of speculation over her unknown condition.
A witness who saw the couple told The Sun: "After all the rumors that had been going round I was stunned to see them there. Kate was out shopping with William and she looked happy and she looked well. The kids weren't with them but it's such a good sign she was healthy enough to pop down to the shops."
While no pictures were taken of the couple - adhering to their request for privacy as Kate recovers - their reported appearance is an encouraging sign that she is taking her first steps towards a return to official royal engagements.
The Princess, who made her last public engagement at Sandringham on Christmas Day, is expected to return to public duty after April 17, when her children start back at Lambrook School, near Ascot, following the Easter Holidays.
The Princess has not ruled out making a return to the public eye on Easter Sunday and could join her family for the traditional walkabout, which would be photographed.
A palace source told the paper there had been 'no confirmation either way' adding that anything else was speculation.
The reports of an early return and her Windsor sighting come just a few days after the Princess was pictured in the back of a car alongside Prince William as they left Windsor Castle last Monday.
The conspiracy theories surrounding the Royal Family only intensified when the Princess took the blame for the family photograph released by Kensington Palace on Mother's Day.
It came after it was pointed out that part of Princess Charlotte's sleeve and the misaligned edge of her skirt were missing, with other speculation including the positioning of Princess Catherine's zip.
In addition to the numerous imperfections in the image, viewers also spotted that the Princess appeared to not be wearing her wedding ring, which sparked multiple unfounded theories online about the state of her marriage.
