As she recovers from abdominal surgery, the Princess of Wales is 'doing fine,' Kensington Palace has reported.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are likely to attend King Constantine II of Greece's funeral in Athens tomorrow with other members of the European royal family (pictured inset). On January 10, the king, the tyrant of Greece, died of a stroke in Athens at the age of 82, more than 50 years after being exiled in a military coup. Closer relatives and members of Europe's other royal families are expected to attend his funeral, which is being held at the city's Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral on Monday, January 16. Queen Letizia of Spain will be there with her husband and Constantine's nephew, King Felipe (pictured left), as will Queen Margrethe of Denmark (pictured left), who was his sister-in-law. The King's widow, Queen Anne-Marie, will attend, as well as his son Crown Prince Pavlos, who is now the head of the former Greek royal family. King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium, King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden, as well as Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands are among the other European royals to attend. According to Hello, William and Kate, Prince and Princess of Wales, may represent Charles and Camilla at the service.

For her outing in Menorca with her husband, the Spanish queen looked cosy in oversized white coat she wore with a black and white number and knee-high black leather boots. For the occasion, she wore her hair in an elegant updo. On their visit, she and King Felipe, pictured right, explored a hospital museum and a basilica.

Last week, Constantine II, the last king of Greece and who was exiled in 1967 following a military coup, was admitted to Athens' private Hygeia Hospital with breathing difficulties. According to local reports, he died 'of a stroke' on Tuesday evening. Constantine had been treated in an intensive care unit at the private Hygeia Hospital in Athens, according to staff. In 1964, Constantine II, the young monarch, who had already excelled as an Olympic gold medalist in sailing, was extremely popular.
