Princess Catherine of Wales, also known as Kate Middleton, is currently in the hospital after undergoing a major abdominal surgery.

This will be her third night in the hospital, and it is reported that she will need more time to recover.

In the meantime, Prince William is taking charge of their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, and trying to maintain a sense of normalcy for them.

Despite the royal couple’s fame and responsibilities, they have always relied on their close support network, especially Catherine’s parents, Michael and Carol Middleton.

They have been hands-on grandparents, often taking care of the children and providing a stable environment.

Additionally, Catherine’s siblings, Pippa Matthews and James Middleton, have cleared their schedules to support her recovery at home in Windsor.

They are ready to assist with taking care of the children during this time.

The bond between the Middleton siblings has always been strong.

Last year, when James experienced the loss of his beloved dog Ella, his sisters immediately offered their support.

James has openly discussed his battle with depression and how his dogs have helped him through difficult times.

He expressed his gratitude for the constant presence of Catherine and Pippa during his struggles.

James, who is known for his love of dogs, also mentioned that he felt fortunate that Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis have the privilege of growing up with dogs.

He shared that he had always wanted a dog as a child but was unable to convince his parents to get one.

Eventually, the Middleton family got a retriever named Tilly, who even appeared in official photographs of Prince George as a baby.

Dogs have remained an important part of the royal family’s life, and they recently welcomed a new Spaniel named Orla.

In addition to their love for dogs, Princess Charlotte shares a special connection with her aunt, Pippa Middleton.

Charlotte’s middle name is a nod to Pippa, and the two have a close aunt-niece relationship.

They even had important roles as page boy and flower girl at Pippa’s wedding to James Matthews.

Pippa and James recently welcomed their own child, Inigo, into the world, and the Middleton family has warmly embraced him as the first grandchild to carry the Middleton family name.

Princess Catherine and Prince William have three children together, while Pippa and James have three of their own.

However, due to the daughters taking their husbands’ names, none of the Middleton grandchildren currently bear the Middleton surname.

With the arrival of baby Inigo, this will change.

As Princess Catherine continues her recovery, her family remains by her side, providing support and care.

Prince William is taking on additional responsibilities to ensure a sense of normalcy for their children.

The Middleton siblings continue to demonstrate their close bond, offering unwavering support during challenging times.

And with the birth of Inigo, the Middleton family name lives on, creating a new chapter in their family’s legacy.
