Kate Middleton is reportedly considering stepping away from her royal duties altogether, according to a shock new article published by RadarOnline.

The information is said to come from a Palace source, who supposedly told the National Enquirer that though the Princess of Wales hasn’t made a concrete decision one way or the other yet, the constant pressure of royal life has exacted a heavy toll on her.

As a result, Kate continues to push back the date upon which she’ll return to royal life following her disappearance from the spotlight back in January after a “planned abdominal procedure”
