Kate Middleton spotted for the first time after surgery and wild conspiracy theories in new photos

Finally!

Kate Middleton was spotted Monday for the first time since December as she continues to rest in private following her planned abdominal surgery earlier this year.

In pictures obtained by The Post, the Princess of Wales, 42, sat in the passenger seat of an Audi being driven by her mom, Carole, near Windsor Castle.

Middleton attempted to keep a low profile in a pair of sunglasses and a slight smile.

The Post has contacted Kensington Palace for comment.

The sighting comes as wild conspiracy theories about Middleton’s whereabouts have taken over the Internet.

Kensington Palace made it clear in January that Middleton would remain behind closed doors until after Easter and that they’d “only be providing significant updates.”

“That guidance stands,” her rep told The Post last week.

Middleton’s husband, Prince William, 41, only fueled the conspiracies when he pulled out of attending a memorial service for his godfather , Greece’s late King Constantine II, at the last minute on Feb. 27 due to “a personal matter.” However, the palace said Middleton was “doing well” in the same statement.

The mother-of-three spent a total of 13 days at the London Clinic in January until she returned to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor to be reunited with William and their kids.

“The Princess of Wales has returned home to Windsor to continue her recovery from surgery. She is making good progress,” Kensington Palace said in a statement upon her release.

“The Prince and Princess wish to say a huge thank you to the entire team at the London Clinic, especially the dedicated nursing staff, for the care they have provided.”

William made a rare personal remark about Middleton’s recovery at the 2024 BAFTA Film Awards.

When asked if he was team “Barbie” or “Oppenheimer” — referring to the hit films’ playful rivalry over the summer — William explained he hadn’t had much time to sit down and watch movies.

“I’ve done [watched] the fewest I’ve ever done before — with my wife it’s been a bit—,” he said last month, without elaborating too much.

“But hopefully, we’ll catch up, I’ll make my list tonight,” the heir to the throne added. “I’m a big fan of Christopher Nolan so I’ll be pleased if he wins, I loved ‘Oppenheimer.’”

“I haven’t watched ‘Barbie’ yet, but I want to,” William claimed.

The future king kept more tight-lipped, however, when he ignored a reporter who directly asked him about his wife in Wrexham, Wales, on Friday.

According to a video obtained by the Daily Mail, when a person in the crowd asked the Prince of Wales, “How’s Catherine?” William stayed silent and kept walking.

But he did respond when a fan asked him for a selfie.

“Can I say hello to the team? I’ll come back,” William offered at the time.
