Royal aides have blasted claims made by a Spanish news outlet that said Kate Middleton was in “great danger” after being put in a “coma” following her abdominal surgery.
The Princess of Wales, 42, was discharged from the hospital on Monday after she made “good progress” following her hospitalization on Jan. 16.
But Spanish journalist Concha Calleja sensationally claimed that doctors were fighting to save Middleton’s life in a broadcast the day before her release from the London Clinic.
Sources told The Post that the Spaniard’s report is “wholly inaccurate.”
“It’s total nonsense,” a source told The Times of London. “No attempt was made by that journalist to fact-check anything that she said with anyone in the household.”
“It’s fundamentally totally made up, and I’ll use polite English here: it’s absolutely not the case,” the insider added.
Fueling concerns over Middleton’s health, Calleja further claimed medics took “drastic” measures to save the mother of three, who she claimed was in an induced coma.

Calleja claimed that Kate’s recovery was “possibly going to require a bit of assistance, and I’m not just referring to her family.”
She added that “practically an entire hospital” was being set up to support her at their Windsor home.

Middleton spent a total of 13 days at the London Clinic. APCalleja, who wrote just one book on the royal family, claimed to have gained the insight from an unnamed royal aide in “a completely confidential manner.”
Princess Catherine was this week whisked away to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, where she was reunited with Prince William and their three children.
She will continue recovering there behind closed doors until after Easter.

Royal sources say Kate’s return to official duties “will depend on medical advice closer to the time.”
Last week, it was reported that Middleton didn’t tell those close to the royal family about her surgery.
