In the purported video of Kate's first appearance in public, she was seen dressed in a hoodie and leggings and carrying her shopping bags while strolling down the street beside her husband Prince William at a farm shop in Windsor near their home. "These pictures are the answer. She’s obviously recovering well from the quite serious operation she had in January," said Sun photographer Arthur Edwards.
