She does look a bit different. But at least she's out and about.

For goodness sake that photo doesn't even look like her. It makes me cross to see how the press have hounded her over what are obviously private health issues. Why on earth can the press not leave the poor woman alone, she is obviously dealing with something personal and just wants some privacy to heal from whatever it was. Shame on you all british press, you can do better than this.

Have you watched the video?

I haven't instigated anything, nor am I bullying anyone. I'm saying there's little point engaging because it just flames the thread. That's the complete opposite of instigating.

So your post didn't get responses such as 'Yes, I think quite a few villages are missing their idiots..." to which you responded "😂 So well put!"?

Well it was. Some of the comments on this thread about fakery are batshit.

TwinklyReader · 19/03/2024 11:42

In the full-length version of the photo, she's looking thinner than ever. That's probably to be expected after major abdominal surgery, but poor thing! I hope she heals and is able to get back to whatever is normal for her. She's been through a lot this year already.

I know the royals have fabulous riches and lots of status, but those things can only go so far. They don't protect you from ill health or bereavement or from getting hurt.

Get well soon, Kate!

I think she looks a bit different because she's lost weight due to surgery and being ill.

You need to go to Specsavers

You are bullying actually. Just because I happen to disagree with you.

FrancisSeaton · 19/03/2024 11:50

They don’t engage with the FBI either

@anotherside 😂😂

ThisGreyPoster · 19/03/2024 11:54

So either this is a lookalike or an old video of Kate and William.
Or Kate is sprightly and in great health and is just skiving when she says she is too ill to go to the St Patrick Days parade or even video a message for them.

ClaudiaWinklepanda · 19/03/2024 11:57

What are the decorations on the sheds?

I wax and wane on it.

I just think it's barmy if they are body doubles or AI altered footage/photos.

But all of the 3 Kates we have seen in the past 3 weeks look.... different.

I don't know. Something isn't right.

I just don't know why we can't have a little photoshoot of her reading some cards saying thank you for your kind wishes.

That would be easier than all this.

I think the conspiracy theories and hand flapping about the whole situation is what’s barmy! Get a life 😭

GameOfJones · 19/03/2024 12:06

Honestly I think the country has gone completely mad. It's reminding me of those TikTok/social media "sleuths" in the Nicola Bulley case last year that were so convinced of their conspiracy theories they hounded her traumatised friends and family. It's like people have to believe they are particularly clever and have worked out some major conspiracy rather than just accept that the most likely explanation is the correct one.

It is clearly a video of Kate and William. If you're so far down the rabbit hole that your brain won't allow you to see what is in front of your own eyes then frankly I don't think there's any helping you!

It has vibes of the hounding of Diana before she died and is really quite sick.

I don't see me disagreeing with you or fact checking your comments as bullying but I am sorry if that's how it's made you feel.

Quartz2208 · 19/03/2024 12:09

It is barmy yes but it is also barmy not to at this point not release a statement, doubling down and stubbornly sticking to the original plan of action for me isn’t a good look for the future monarch(s).

accepting that a change of action is needed shows strength, shutting down all of this is a decisive action- continuing to value privacy above all else is foolish.

whoever advised the photo (or didn’t) that needed to look perfect missed the mark, we don’t need them always to be picture perfect, she doesn’t need to either. This is an opportunity to make them more relatable and sympathetic but they are missing the mark

woahhhh · 19/03/2024 12:09

Ellaelle · 18/03/2024 20:42

Lol that's not her! Looks nothing like her unless she had plastic surgery and changed her face

Which is one of the thoughts I have had over this whole mysterious disappearing for 2.5 months. There are not many things that would cause someone to literally HIDE

I don’t think Nicola Bulley released fake and doctored photos of her family that only serve to fuel speculation. Nor did she live in the limelight - with full security and a world class PR team and acres of options for privacy.

Pp will be invested in women they identify with, that is the only similarity that I can see.

Thank you. We all have a view. None of us know the truth. I wish we did, then these threads wouldn’t be needed at all. And we could go back to arguing about how many Easter eggs are appropriate for children!

ThisGreyPoster · 19/03/2024 12:13

If this is Kate, she is sprightly walking quickly. Nut she is supposedly so ill she can not even film a video message for the St Patricks Day parade she is missing?

This makes no senses. Even Charles who is visibly ill and undergoing cancer treatment is still meeting people privately and has done a video message.

DriftingDora · 19/03/2024 12:13

If that's her she looks terribly thin, certainly like someone who's been ill for a while. She's never been exactly plump, but my goodness she looks as though she's lost a lot of weight, there's hardly anything of her.

Ahugga · 19/03/2024 12:14

If she's well enough to be out shopping she's well enough to pose for a photo. This whole thing is ridiculous. There's just no need for the disappearing act.Personally I'm assuming it's plastic surgery gone wrong.
