Princess Kate?

Internet is going nuts about it, the theories are insane.

Hope she’s ok

@ColleenDonaghy they have not said they expect her to recover. They have said they expect her to return to work. Queen Elizabeth was working when she was very elderly and quite ill.

Ok. Fine. They're going to Weekend At Bernie's her. You got me.

Ferretaria · 29/02/2024 22:23

She's preparing for her new career

So where is she?!

ItsAllAboutTheDosh · 29/02/2024 22:06

The phrase - expected to make a full recovery - is a standard PR phrase. The fact they have not used that is fuelling speculation. It either means they do not know if she will recover, or their PR are terrible at their job.

Or most people aren't versed in the secret codes of PR speak and don't care to be so the fact they haven't used some specific form of words means nothing.

ItsAllAboutTheDosh · 29/02/2024 22:24

@ColleenDonaghy I am not claiming anything has happened to Kate. I have said the PR is fuelling speculation.

I think it is very likely she is in a coma.

Good Lord! Your posts are beyond ridiculous. Please tell me this is some satirical commentary on social media usage?

I cry-laughed at the sad Oompa Loompa lady on twitter.

At home. Her medical treatment is one of the few things which belong to her.

I have to admit I'm slightly curious about what medical procedure/s she's had done but not about to go down an Internet rabbithole

I'm the same and having had wide excision surgery for endometriosis that's my bet.

GreenClock · 29/02/2024 22:41

Some of the Twitter stuff is bonkers but some is funny.

User7825525 · 29/02/2024 22:41

Page6 have managed to get a statement from her rep.

“Kensington Palace made it clear in January the timelines of the princess’ recovery and we’d only be providing significant updates,” her rep tells Page Six exclusively. “That guidance stands.”

Have to say the tone is incredibly condescending. It sounds like they're treating the public like medieval peasants who dare question how their divine rulers are doing. There is not even a single word of thanks to the millions of people who genuinely wished her a good recovery and fought tooth and nail to defend her right to privacy?!

Fair enough, some of the rumours are awful and they have a right to rebut, however to give such a curt statement which they KNOW will be published and requoted a thousand times on social media is daring. And without a shred of acknowledgement or thanks that a taxpayer funded working royal disappearing entirely for 4 months might be something to be questioned.

Unless Page6 deliberately misquoted them, the grammatical structure of the sentence is very odd. This was pointed out multiple times on Tiktok. It reads like something typed up in a hurry (no proof checking) or by someone trying to sound smarter than they actually are. They've muddled up two separate subjects by using "Kensington Palace" and "we'd" in the same sentence. They are Kensington Palace. It's very odd to refer to themselves as a third party and then use an active first person form in one breath.

Crispynoodle · 29/02/2024 22:44

I'm guessing she has Chrons disease which would explain her athletic body. She might have had a bowel resection which is major surgery. She could be left with a colonostomy requiring an external bag. Imagine! Now that would take some adjustments given her situation and needing to be seen all the time, having to always be dressed well. Super anxiety right there OR she might have had cosmetic surgery! Who knows!

I literally can't see anything wrong with this. 😕

You sound a bit entitled. The Royal Family owes you nothing. They certainly don't owe you an explanation and constant updates on Kate, because you wished her a good recovery. 🙄 They explained the situation in mid January. She will be offline til after Easter. Deal with it.

Good grief. 🙄

Surely she’s on MN…I hope she’s posting crazy conspiracy theories about her location on the RF threads 🤣

That’s an idea🤣 what username/s do you think she has?

Her health really is nobody else's business other than her doctor. Leave the woman alone to recover in peace. There is no need for the public to know half the gossip the press pour out under the guise of public interest.

Why would they be seen?

@ColleenDonaghy People are saying they’ve not been seen since Christmas and her parents too

xSideshowAuntSallyx · 29/02/2024 23:26

When my mum had a a very large annuerysm removed from her abdomen, I remember she was in hospital for a couple of weeks and off work for over 2 months.

If she's had major surgery she will be recuperating for a couple of months.

NotTheKateYouAreLookingFor · 29/02/2024 23:32

Has anyone checked what the government is up to whilst large numbers of people are distracted by all these theories?

ColleenDonaghy · 29/02/2024 23:33

Amillionmenwenttomowameadow · 29/02/2024 23:19

@GreenClock Because of the vaccine why?

Because to some on Twitter, every unexpected death in someone under the age of 80 is because of the covid vaccination. Young people didn't die in 2019 you see.

The whole kate and willy wonka experience that when down on twitter was its greatest moment since the Rudy Giuliani four seasons incident.

Oh, Rudy Giuliani and the Four Seasons... probably some of the greatest coverage I've ever seen. I watched in real time. It was amazing.

You know that's not her name/title right?

Well no it's not, Wills called her Kath today 😉
