Do not read or comment if you aren't interested!

Shamefully starting a new Kate related thread for the fellow people like me who are so far down the rabbit hole they need to talk it out with fellow tin foil hat wearers 🤙
I want to know.. what do you think?
Where is she?
The wild theories?
Will she make the Easter Day service?
What the hell is going on over at KP?

I think she's seriously ill and will be stepping back soon.

I've got popcorn and I've got alllllll night, let's dissect.

Can you link please

If that’s true, then was she even in the car??

MaturingCheeseball · 15/03/2024 14:05

@Missingprincess - you are excitedly posting the exact same things on different threads. Look, why don’t you do your own investigation? Hide in the bushes and take some photos of Rose Hanbury? Why not disguise yourself as a nurse and get in to see if you can take a look at Kate’s abdomen? Possibly inside the abdomen. Oh, and photograph the kids, too, while you’re at it. You clearly admire the paparazzi…

Abitboring · 15/03/2024 14:06

I think she went into hospital on 28 Dec and possibly put into an induced coma because the body heals itself better that way. Then they got her out and she was well enough for surgery in mid Jan. They set the date for in two days time, hence it was planned surgery.

Severalwhippets · 15/03/2024 14:07

Kate’s own staff say they haven’t seen her….
That is a pretty serious statement

It is worthy of posting everywhere though. Kate had not been seen by the very people that look after her!

BenefitWaffle · 15/03/2024 14:09

I trust Private Eye. They said Kate went into hospital for surgery in late December and there were complications. I have no idea why the Palace can not just be honest about that.

mardylookingfrump · 15/03/2024 14:09

Isn’t she off work? So her staff wouldn’t have seen her, what with the being in hospital then recuperating at home. When I’ve been off sick I’ve generally been not at work, it’s sort of the point.

To be fair it isn’t a statement it’s a leak to an American newspaper. Is it a reliable newspaper?

JuicyOrange01 · 15/03/2024 14:09

I know exactly what’s happened.

I think she’s on the masked singer. You’ll see.

Quacking4it · 15/03/2024 14:10

Surely common sense...the less who see her and know what's going on( her business) the less likely they will gossip or be blackmailed for information.

They are saying none of her staff have seen her. It’s nothing to do with work.

NY Post isn't the worst but I wouldn't trust them as a final word on anything.

It’s not a newspaper - if you read the report linked there it links back to the source of the story which is American celebrity gossip magazine US Weekly.

No one in their right mind could ever believe that US Weekly has a ‘royal source’ who has the smallest clue what’s going on in Kate’s household.

Well, think of the media like an ocean - the daily mail floats near the bottom, in the midnight zone. The NY Post is an absolute bottom feeder, splayed on the sea floor along with the Enquirer, licking up scraps and belching out effluent. It's that reliable.

BenefitWaffle · 15/03/2024 14:13

@BrickPombear Charles has been photographed recently. He did look ill. The treatment for cancer is often very rough.

ColleenDonaghy · 15/03/2024 14:14

The staff not being aware ties in with Private Eye and makes logical sense given all the PR fuck ups. The good PR aren't on the case.

ColleenDonaghy · 15/03/2024 14:15

Abitboring · 15/03/2024 14:02

@ColleenDonaghy I think so too but they shouldn't have done it to a level where people wonder whether her head has been photoshopped in.

I can't imagine they'd so blatantly lie but I'm not convinced the photo was taken a week before. There was no need to use a recent photo. They'd send out Christmas cards with a photo taken yonks ago. If they wanted to show Kate is alive and fairly ok they could have done it another way. Also, do the RF not run their own checks on anything that goes out?

Well I think her head was photoshopped in tbh, possibly over a different version of her head but who knows. It was a stupid move, and really compromised their integrity.

Severalwhippets · 15/03/2024 14:16

Ofc there will be pp deliberately trying to mislead on this, and minimise the staffs credibility but if her own staff haven’t seen her - and the photo was fake and we still don’t know about the car photo, that still adds to no one has seen and can verify Kate being actually present since Christmas Day. Now nearly three months on..

Here’s the publication that has this ‘exclusive’ about Kate’s staff.

FFS - stop repeating absolute unverified nonsense - like the Dec 28 ambulances which don’t exist.

Ah great. And which example exactly are you following?

How the RF communicates (and leaks) to journalists is fascinating and not always straightforward. I liked this rundown by Nieman Lab (which is the journalism foundation at Harvard); they include the convoy to the hospital in their timeline:

It’s getting weirder: BuzzFeed News’ former royals reporter on Kate Middleton, Palace PR, and distrust in the media (updated)

"I cannot emphasize enough how out of character it is that a royal press team went on the record in response to what is essentially gossip."
