The Princess of Wales has returned to work with a private meeting at Windsor Castle, according to an entry on the court circular.
The post from Tuesday reads: “The Princess of Wales, Joint Patron, The Royal Foundation of The Prince and Princess of Wales, this afternoon held an Early Years meeting at Windsor Castle.”
The court circular documents the engagements of the Royal Family, whether they are in public or behind palace walls.
The palace has not issued any pictures of the meeting or shared specific details of what was discussed.
Last week it was confirmed the princess was going to start doing some work behind the scenes after her cancer diagnosis earlier in the year.
In an incredibly personal video, the princess confirmed she had finished her preventative chemotherapy but that her focus was to “stay cancer free”.
She said: “Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.
“I am however looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.”

It is understood members of Kate’s team from the royal household attended Tuesday’s meeting, along with representatives from the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood.
Focusing on the importance of nurturing zero to five-year-olds, and supporting their parents, has long been a cornerstone of the princess’s charitable work.
The last time she attended a private meeting at Windsor Castle for the Royal Foundation was on 6 December 2023.
Her only other engagements on the court circular this year are her attendance at Trooping the Colour and her appearance at Wimbledon.

The palace suggested last week that the princess is only likely to return to “light duties” for now, attending a handful of public engagements before the end of the year.
It is understood that Kate’s intention is to join other members of the Royal Family at the Cenotaph for Remembrance Sunday in November, with her engagements being scheduled when she feels able to carry them out.

Prince William also attended a private engagement on Tuesday with a visit to meet members of the SAS, according to another entry on the court circular.
It reads: “The Prince of Wales carried out a private visit to 22 Special Air Service Regiment, to meet individuals who have been deployed on recent operations.”
Due to the top secret nature of their work, the palace never shares further details of these kind of visits.
