Yet another piece! What are they trying to tell us without telling us?
Rose went to Stowe so presumably had a knowledge of Wills inner circle growing up.. But why all the articles!

What pleasure does it give some people to post about malicious rumours?

Some here are doing the job of the tabloids. I bet they were bullies at school as well.

Shame on you.

But where are the editors and the lawyers? Don't tell me the SEO experts have sole editorial control. Or do they?

Editors may (and should) have an opinion on pointless non stories about Rose but the lawyers won't care. The stories are not untrue or salacious. We can certainly have a whole other discussion about how click driven journalism is hastening the end of professional news reporting but there is no legal problem with it.

Can't they see what they will do if they push Kate to her limits? It's downright cruel

There is a story there they are unable to break for one reason or another.

There is thought, in the telegraph. It says “unsubstantiated rumours”

Some of the Kate conspiracies mention Rose and I think that many people didn’t register it the first time because they aren’t interested in the BRF.

I think that this is a warning shot to William. Fleet Street are pissed off that they aren’t getting as much info as in the past and need KP to give them info so that they can make money. William naturally hates the press but needs to realise that he needs to work with them or they will make him a less popular monarch than his father. If this was hundreds of years ago then he could keep things mysterious but in this day and age, it’s just not possible or realistic.
I’m not saying that we should know what kind of surgery Kate’s had but next to her father in law’s “cancer but not prostate cancer” info sharing, KP should have had a PR campaign of soft info to feed journalists. Their statements on the lines of we told you she’s fine so stop nagging us is a terrible attitude to have when KP needs the press as much as the press needs them.

No, they use SEO

It really is just clickbait, based on what all the weirdos are searching for and bumping up the lists

If it's evidence of anything, it's of how anything that ever gets traction on SM becomes hard/impossible to eradicate

They'd like to think...surely it doesn't work like that anymore? So many outlets other than newspapers?

@WinnieTheW0rm I understand what you are saying but why target Rose as opposed to dozens of other rural toff girls?

why would a lawyer be needed, they’re not saying anything potentially libellous? If you take out any implication of the affair it’s nothing more than a puff piece on somebody who is Kate’s friend. Nobody is saying she’s had an affair with William (in that article). If they wrote a story claiming X was having an affair with a Y then yeah, I’d expect somebody legal would need to clear it. i think evidence/sources would have to be solid. That’s why you’ll see a lot of words like “alleged” in stories lol !

I’d say seo drives most of what you read online yeah. newspapers have whole teams of SEOs. It’s a massive revenue driver for them. It’s different for print and tv.

This might give you more of an idea how seo works in newsrooms:

Yep this is correct. I work in this industry - it's not about a story they know to be true but can't run. It's click and SEO driven.

Not to say there isn't an affair btw just that these stories do not indicate insider knowledge they just indicate a lot of internet traffic about it.

Exactly this

Can't they see what they will do if they push Kate to her limits? It's downright cruel

I don’t think the media who print these sorts of stories care. They didn’t care about Meghan either.

Because William and Rose Hanbury have been “linked” before.

But long term she's their Golden Goose surely?

Because literally thousands of people are searching for her on Google due to the rumours swirling on soc media

This article is 8 years old so Rose has been in the presses sights for a long time..

It's really not a good look to be edging around the boundaries like this. Not for the broadsheets, at least.

But long term she's their Golden Goose surely?

Exactly. The press are managing to look trashy and piss off the Waleses at the same time and all for a story they can't or won't print.

Ah, no. The key bit I wasn't understanding was that RH's name had specifically come up elsewhere first.

But it has - quite prominently- and the papers are riding the SEO wave off the back of it? That's what you're saying?

It gets mucky when SM meets the rest of the world.

The rumours started first due to a story or a tweet that I believe has been since discredited? Don’t quote me on that. I kinda skipped this whole furore.

The rumour still circulates on social media, mentioned all the time by the “Meghan stans”, people who hate royals, other gossip mongers etc. ) as you’d expect.

Kate takes extended time off royal duties, dodgy photo editing etc etc and everyone and his wife buying into conspiracies. One of the major ones is that Kate is going to or has left William and the surgery/Mother’s Day photo etc is all a coverup.

People get taking About the rose rumour again. Citing this as proof. Kate finally pissed off and going to divorce William.

others Google the women, never heard of her. Or to see if any info about her/more info about rumour as they missed it first time round.

seo tools (including Google’s own trend tool that I screenshotted before) and news romms own analytics pick Up big rise in searches for rose.

they want that sweet traffic. Traffic = £££££

newsrooms need £££££

specially as nobody buys newspapers anymore.

so they write clickable articles about rose to entice that traffic On their site

They don’t have to even mention the alleged affair.

They keep pumping out fresh and unique angles to secure top spots in Google/news/Discover and keep getting those sweet clicks and therefore ££££

Ah see yeah, that’s what happened (as I have since explained in cross posted message!)

Was it not Giles Coren shit stirring on Twitter years ago? And then admitting it was all bollocks later?

If that is the only source then this ridiculous current media circus is quite interesting from a social media/psychology perspective.

Because he shagged her.
