Just to add - I’m aware I have spelt “there” wrong !

I have just seen the photos and video of Kate and William at the farm shop .

Am I alone in thinking it’s clearly her? I don’t understand how people are thinking it isn’t ? There is also talk of this being at Christmas due to decorations up but I think it’s also very clear to see that they aren’t Christmas decorations - it’s just some fairy lights and a heart shaped decoration , that isn’t specific to Christmas and is in fact they type of decor that these places have ??

I feel like people actually want to believe that there is some kind of conspiracy. I understand the questions regarding her ‘disappearance’ but now she has been seen it’s like this isn’t enough . The poor woman has had surgery and has clearly had a health issue - what more do people want ? I know the royal family do have to accept that their privacy is limited and it’s all part of the parcel but can’t we just have some basic empathy and understand that they are still human , they still have feelings and heath problems and are entitled to some privacy and some time to rest and recover ?

Someone rather nice told me they are sure she is abducted, killed, etc and the Royal family can get away with this and with everything else. With some things some of their princes did get away with, but to kill and hide a woman, come on. She has parents. People are vile to imagine such vileness happened to her.

There’s been a very funny thread on this today, think it’s probably full now. Lots think it’s not her because she hasn’t got the same ears.Grin

What 🤣

She’s basically not wearing make up at the farm shop. (My point being she does look a bit different).

I think it has all been a bit odd so people are obviously wondering what’s going on and now people are just too far down the rabbit hole. It’s a nice distraction from normal life I guess. And some of the theories are quite entertaining!

Glad to see that everyone agrees !

It’s crazy I have heard some insane theories !

I do think for most it is just an escape I guess isn’t it - some drama, something to talk about !

I am feeling a little convinced over the alleged affair between William and Rose Hanbury ( so I guess it could be said that I’m also being taken in ) but I’m hoping that’s not true

I've seen the 'she's dead/murdered' crap spouted on Tiktok & Twitter. What I don't understand is if they've murdered her secretly, what happens next? Will they produce a look a like? Will they just keep delaying her return or will they remove all traces of her online then gaslight us & tell us she never existed & we're all experiencing some mass scale Mandela effect 🤔

Another rumour started on SM

Eenymeanymineymo · 19/03/2024 21:32

I'd love it to be a good whodunit...starring the great Angela Lansbury.

But I think all is well. And Kate is doing exactly as she's been said to be doing.

Boring but most likely the truth.

FrancisSeaton · 19/03/2024 21:38

I don't think she's dead getting a divorce been abducted by aliens but i also don't think the person at the farm shop was her

From a distance, the British press are awful vultures. This just wouldn't happen in Canada. Our press is repeating some of your stories, but our press doesn't hound people and make up stuff like yours does.

I feel bad for them (W&C). They said she would be out of the limelight until Easter, so just let it be.

The Press isn’t reporting this stuff here, it’s on social media. The newspapers didn’t even print the photo of her in the car. Just said it was printed in foreign news.
A lot of it I’ve read on X etc is by Americans.

ShiteRider · 19/03/2024 21:41

I couldn’t really care less but having seen the photo I don’t think it looks like her at all.

Spectre8 · 19/03/2024 21:45

Fsr more entertaining to wonder what's up I mean I saw the video and I don't think it's her so definitely amusing to see the theories going round and the memes hahah

People are just taking the piss out of them it's not them being thay deep

teabooks · 19/03/2024 21:47

They are just a family with family stuff going on.
So many threads about it ive started to hide them.

Stickinthemuddle · 19/03/2024 22:09

She has fillers usually which will have gone down too. It doesn’t look like her particularly and doesn’t look like either of the other 2 pics so it is intriguing but I’m sure time will tell.

I heard the car photo was of her corpse. Which is wild enough but would her actual mum agree to drive it around, and if so to what end?!

Surroundedbyfools · 19/03/2024 22:12

I can’t believe anyone gives 2 fucks ! I’ve enough to worry about in my own life to give the royals a thought !

I found this article quite interesting The Psychology of Conspiracy Theorists: More Than Just Paranoia - Neuroscience News

Summary: A new study delves into the intricate psyche of conspiracy theorists, attributing their beliefs to a mixture of personality traits and motivations.
The study suggests conspiracy theorists are not necessarily ‘mentally unwell’, but often resort to conspiracy theories to fulfill unmet needs and rationalize distress. Analyzing data from 170 studies with over 158,000 participants, it identifies a need to understand and feel secure in their environment, and a sense of superiority over others as key drivers.
In addition, personality traits such as paranoia, insecurity, impulsivity, and egocentrism were found to be common among conspiracy theorists.

She's lost weight which has made a big difference to how she looks. Sometimes that happens; back in the 70s, a good friend of mine lost weight while she was away at Uni and the first time she came back I barely recognised her! I spent the first hour with 'it's not her, it's a bad clone' running round my head!

mdinbc · 20/03/2024 20:20

Fashionqueen1188, I admit I didn't investigate who took the photo or where it first appeared, but you have to admit the British press is fierce regarding the Royal family. Every single day there is a story. I just popped on to Daily Mail website and there are three separate headlines. It's just relentless.

I imagine someone had to buy the original photo, and it gets passed along once it is in public domain. Regardless, people (the papparazi) know that if they hound the royals they will be paid for their images and a story will be made up.

I also think the press is fine with good stories if the subject agrees to photos, but the minute anyone famous doesn't go along with them, then they start getting nasty. The press loved Catherine before she went out of the limelight, now they have turned on her and William. It was the same for Diana all those years ago.

The real news is too depressing for people.

I am feeling the same.I have enough worries without worrying about someone whom I don't know and am not likely to meet.

nildesparandum · 22/03/2024 21:59

I must admit I feel for her now.
I have a rare form of blood cancer but am twice her age.I have had my life, she is just in the middle of hers.
