Kate Middleton has hinted that she may resume her royal duty “very soon.”

Reports suggest that the Princess of Wales might make a surprise appearance at the King’s annual birthday parade, scheduled for Saturday, June 15.

However, a royal source told The Daily Beast that “there is no timeframe for Catherine returning to public duties.”

“I actually don’t think her note implies she is going to be charging down to their headquarters to inspect a parade next month,” the source added.

ANother source told the outlet, “I think this idea that Kate is suddenly going to pop up on the balcony on Saturday is far-fetched.”

This possible return follows Middleton’s apology for missing the final rehearsal for Trooping the Colour, known as the Colonel’s Review, last weekend. As the honorary Colonel of the Irish Guards, she expressed her regret in a letter: “Being your Colonel remains a great honour, and I am very sorry that I’m unable take the salute at this year’s Colonel’s Review. Please pass my apologies to the whole Regiment, however, I do hope that I am able to represent you all once again very soon.”
