Kate Middleton’s return to the public eye following her abdominal surgery may have just been unveiled.

Kensington Palace announced on Jan. 17 that the Princess of Wales, 42, had a planned medical procedure.

Britain’s Ministry of Defense seemingly confirmed on Tuesday that Middleton will be appearing at a pre-Trooping the Colour event on June 8.

The UK’s army noted on its website that Middleton is set to examine soldiers from the Foot Guards at the function.

The individuals from the infantry will line the processional route along the Mall in London for the Trooping the Colour parade in the days following the inspection.

Middleton has appeared at the parade since tying the knot with Prince William in 2011.

Trooping the Colour is the ceremonial batch of events that celebrate and officially mark King Charles’ birthday in June — despite his actual milestone being on Nov. 14.

This year’s festivities are slated to start on June 15.

The Duchess of Cambridge has been out of commission since her procedure, and has been recovering at her home at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor.

A whirlwind of conspiracies about her whereabouts have surfaced since she took a step back from her royal duties.

Amid the confusion, her rep told The Post on Feb. 29: “Kensington Palace made it clear in January the timelines of the princess’ recovery and we’d only be providing significant updates. That guidance stands.”

Her camp added that she is now “doing well.”

Days later, the mother of three was spotted in a car with her mother, Carole Middleton, for the first time since her surgery.

In the March 4 grainy photos, the royal attempted to stay incognito as she rocked sunglasses and a dark jacket.

When Kensington Palace first revealed Middleton’s illness, they noted that she would be “unlikely to return to public duties until after Easter.” The holiday falls on March 31 this year.

“The Princess of Wales appreciates the interest this statement will generate. She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible; and her wish that her personal medical information remains private,” the palace’s initial statement on Middleton said at the time.

“Kensington Palace will, therefore, only provide updates on Her Royal Highness’ progress when there is significant new information to share.”
