Gary Goldsmith, the uncle of Princess Kate, has shared his optimistic outlook on his niece's return to public duties by Easter, following her recovery from abdominal surgery.
Kate has been taking a necessary break from the public eye for the past two months, but according to Gary, the Princess of Wales is on a good path to recovery and expected to resume her public engagements by Easter.
During an appearance on Thursday's GB News with Nigel Farage, shortly after his stint on Celebrity Big Brother, Gary opened up about Princess Kate's health and the support she has received.
"I think she has the best support on the planet, she has the best people looking after her. 'They [The Palace] have said we would see her at Easter and nothing has changed since that! They have been very transparent,'" he shared, reflecting confidence in the information provided by the Palace regarding Kate's return.

Princess Kate later took responsibility for the confusion, issuing an apology and indicating her direct involvement in the editing of the image.
Gary also reflected on his recent participation in Celebrity Big Brother, aiming to alter public perceptions and offer a glimpse into celebrity life.
Despite mixed reactions from viewers and reported tensions within his family due to his disclosures in the house, Gary considered the experience profoundly positive.
