  • HELLO! reported the statement from her representative: "We are grateful for the concern shown, but do not comment on private medical matters."
  • She previously underwent heart surgery and later said she still needed daily rest during recovery.
  • In December 2024 she fell at her Kensington Palace home, breaking both wrists and temporarily struggling with basic tasks.
