An Information Commissioner's Office spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday that they had received a breach report and are investigating.
The hospital where the Princess of Wales was treated in January has launched an investigation into claims staff attempted to access her private medical records, according to reports. At least one member of staff was alleged to have been caught trying to access the royal's notes, the Mirror reported. Kate attended The London Clinic in January for abdominal surgery - and she has not attended a public engagement since, with suggestions she is expected to return to royal duties around Easter.
' Hospital bosses are said to have contacted Kensington Palace after the apparent breach came to light. The clinic refused to comment on the claims but told the newspaper: 'We firmly believe that all our patients, no matter their status, deserve total privacy and confidentiality regarding their medical information.' Kensington Palace said: 'This is a matter for The London Clinic.' Sky News has contacted Kensington Palace and The London Clinic.
