The Prince of Wales visited his wife Kate Middleton at the hospital as she recovers from abdominal surgery.
Prince William was photographed driving as he left the private London Clinic, Thursday.

William’s visit comes one day after Kensington Palace announced Wednesday that the Princess of Wales’ surgery was successful and that she could remain in the hospital for up to two weeks recovering.
« Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales was admitted to The London Clinic yesterday for planned abdominal surgery, » the palace said in a statement posted to social media. « The surgery was successful and it is expected that she will remain in hospital for ten to fourteen days, before returning home to continue her recovery. »
Middleton will postpone her public duties, likely until after Easter « based on the current medical advice, » the palace added in its statement.
Meanwhile, the Prince of Wales is expected to also postpone some of his royal duties to be by his wife’s side while she recovers in a hospital, according to reports.
The postponements include two international visits, according to People magazine.
He is also expected to spend extra time with their three children: Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, who recently returned to school following a Christmas break.
