Social media leaking news of POW hysterectomy

It goes without saying its only her business, however I found it odd that whilst 'doomscrolling' from sleeplessness I came across a couple of posts from US news sites claiming they had news obtained from 'Palace sources' posted onto SM.

We all know that KP is somewhat leaky but over something like this? (I suppose Maybe if the price was right?)
Or is it just speculation passed off as the truth?
Or, are US news sources avowed to publish info that uk ones aren't?

I'm not particularly interested in what she's had done, surgery is unpleasant, full stop, But I'm just wondering if there's a reason the story is in US but not uk news-if it even real ( which seems slightly unlikely I would think, but then you never know about anyone personal life).
Just found out odd and curious as to the whys

POW stands for prisoner of war, FFS.

It's obvious in this context it's not prisoner of war

CrispsandCheeseSandwich · 20/01/2024 11:05

we will eventually find out of course

Will we? Phillip had abdominal surgery, which I think was described as "exploratory". But no other details have ever come out.

Yes. I clicked on this assuming it was breaking news about war crimes - not ideal speculation about Princess Kate.

CrispsandCheeseSandwich · 20/01/2024 11:10

i saw something on SM which showed a post from Dec 28th of a royal convoy speeding towards a hospital in London & I wonder if Kate had been in hospital for longer than we think.

What do you mean, "towards a hospital"? In London, some cars were seen driving in the direction of a hospital? So down any road in London really, given the various hospitals across the city? And whilst it was towards a hospital, it could actually have been going quite literally anywhere?

Sorry, what? Yes it does, but in this context it also stands for Princess of Wales. In another context it might mean Prince of Wales. What an odd thing to say

There's not a State List of Approved Acronyms.

FFS.

Unlikely in the Royal Family section, don't you think?

2jacqi · 20/01/2024 11:13

@CupOfCoffeeandaPineappleChunk i read that it came from a palace source! no doubt that the palace source resides in USA!!!

Exactly. The headline makes me think specifically of some of the atrocities documented in The Kolyma Tales, not vapid royal tittle tattle!

It's on "trending" I didn't notice the forum.

It's nasty, nosey idle speculation.

NoMoreFalafelsForYou · 20/01/2024 11:28

Yet if it's true, here you are running to another forum to spread the exact same rumour to even more people 😕🙄
YABU

CurlewKate · 20/01/2024 11:33

I'm prepared to admit to believing my curious. I suspect we all are, if we're honest. But it agree that she's absolutely entitled to privacy. Sadly, the only way she's going to get it is by providing a bit more information.

TreadSoftlyOnMyDreams · 20/01/2024 11:34

All the "evidence" points to having a gastric band fitted and radical liposuction of all the extra weight. She'll be a shadow of her former shadow when she comes out! 😉.

Leave the woman alone FGS.

I really don’t think so . Apparently Harry only found out when he saw the news headline .
Sad that it has come to this but they could risk Scobie leaking the news.

witnessprotection73 · 20/01/2024 11:36

Yes you’re right. The convoy was in Marylebone the destination of the hospital but I agree it could’ve been going anywhere.

Alwaysalwayscold · 20/01/2024 11:41

I wouldn't trust the American media to tell me if it was raining outside.

The king Edward was/is always used by the Queen and RF. I know because I used the same surgeon. So if they were seen there, it’s likely they were heading to the KE. There is nothing else of notes apart from some cool boho cafes.

Newchapterbeckons · 20/01/2024 07:58

I just don’t understand why Buckingham palace are allowing this to run and run. They could put an end to this circus immediately, the fact they haven’t either means it’s much more serious than we imagine or it’s a breakdown or similar.

A plain hysterectomy is hardly going to be breaking news.

Nonsense. There will be wild speculation regardless.

Kate is entitled to her privacy on medical matters and not have every operation discussed. Responding to speculation in any way would just add fuel to the fire.

Well it could hardly be worse.

The world is smaller now we have email and texts etc.

FarleyHatcherEsq · 20/01/2024 11:51

The double standards are astounding. No one is allowed to speculate on Kate but Meghan, Brittany, Katie Price, Jodie Marsh, etc are all fair game. People say awful things about them all the time with no real understanding or evidence. I've seen many MN posters say that Meghan has a personality disorder or wasn't really pregnant. Where's the evidence for that?

Maireas · 20/01/2024 11:54

no-one is allowed to speculate on Kate
eh?
There are several threads doing exactly that, including this one.

FarleyHatcherEsq · 20/01/2024 11:55

@Maireas and how many people are saying that any speculation is wrong? A luxury which no other working class or world majority female celebrity is awarded.

No one else gets defended against speculation? Really? Well, you've obviously not seen the many threads on here supportive of Meghan.

I have no interest in speculating about private health details of any of them. Or Megan Markle either.

No "we" aren't.

Never even thought about it until clicking on this thread, as it appeared on "trending". Didn't even notice it was RF and didn't think POW" meant Kate.
