Even now there are vile posters wallowing in the Catherine news. Please don’t give them an outlet.

What on earth is wrong about talking about someone who has cancer?

When king charles was sick with cancer, people were talking about it on threads on here.

Why is it different with kate?

Because she's issued a video specifically asking for privacy for her and her young family.

hillaryjg · 22/03/2024 18:48

I agree. Give her privacy. I'm hiding the threads

When king charles was diagnosed ,the Palace also issued a statement asking for people to respect King charles' privacy.

That is something that they always say. They always say "please respect our privacy"

I don't think that phrase means "no one is allowed to even discuss me online'

I do feel that the news management by Kensington Palace has been utterly abysmal, and has fostered this speculation, but I agree: best to take it all down now, please, @MNHQ

Edited

As I posted on another thread, it now looks very likely that the news management by KP has not been stellar because they were trying to keep the people who knew what was really going to to the absolute minimum to avoid leaks. Because they were clearly desperate to ensure their children found out from them, and when they had a complete break from the school environment.

Which means they weren’t about to start seeking wider counsel and working out playbooks with the BP team. Because the bigger the circle, the more chance of a leak.

So yeah - maybe consider that rushing to judgment based on ignorance may sometimes make you look stupid, perhaps?

I really agree OP 👍 I lost my brother at the age of 16 . One thread I thought it was in support of , but no it just looked like they had to get in there first and then slagged off this ladies privilege on most of thier posts . Cancer doesn't discriminate . It's doesn't give a shit if you're rich or poor 😡

Frequency · 22/03/2024 18:51

Agreed.

They should have been pulled days ago.

MrsLeonFarrell · 22/03/2024 18:51

If they didn't pull the conspiracies they won't pull these. Apparently they need the clicks.

I'm so sorry

Sashamalia · 22/03/2024 18:53

I think most people came on here to empathise and to be kind about kate.

Poor kate. I hope the preventative process and the healing process goes well for her

You need to start a thread in Site Stuff to get MNHQ's attention.

Tiddlywinks63 · 22/03/2024 18:54

jeffgoldblum · 22/03/2024 18:46

Read the hundreds of threads leading up to this one !!!
Tell me that is not abusive bullying!

Hear, hear!
MNHQ are more interested in clicks and £££££ than doing the decent thing.

marmaladeandpeanutbutter · 22/03/2024 18:54

Agreed. It's nasty and undignified. Bin them.

IAmThe1AndOnly · 22/03/2024 18:54

The threads which need to be pulled are the ones which led up to these ones.

It would seem a bit hypocritical to allow all the hideous vile speculation threads stand and then to delete the ones which for the most part are at least supportive

The vile speculative threads need pulling, and the posters who were practically salivating over them (we all know who they are), should be banned.

ssd · 22/03/2024 18:55

Agree

EternalSunshine14 · 22/03/2024 18:55

What does ‘vile posters wallowing’ mean? I haven’t seen that on any of the threads I have read.

ASighMadeOfStone · 22/03/2024 18:55

Agreed. Maybe just one supportive one should stand. As in the past, one thread only.

Abouttimeforanamechange · 22/03/2024 18:55

I agree. All the conspiracy threads should have been pulled long ago, as a pp said, it was bullying plain and simple. Now this. Just stop it.

What is it about this site that brings out such jeering, sarcastic rudeness? Honestly?!

Sadly, many really didn't.

Maybe it’s all the jeering, sarcastic rudeness that we’ve seen lately from posters promulgating the most lurid theories about the Prince and Princess of Wales over thread after thread after thread?

Uricon2 · 22/03/2024 19:03

I don't think I can actually stomach some of the people who have made a certain type of post over the last few weeks doing a hypocritical reverse ferret or still worse, carrying on on the speculation under the guise of "CARING".

So yeah, with @MaturingCheeseball on this.

BigPimpinSpendinCheese · 22/03/2024 19:03

I'm just seeing hundreds of joyous superior posters bleating the same crap about other posters 'hanging their heads in shame'

OceanSounds123 · 22/03/2024 19:05

Totally agree.

Sashamalia · 22/03/2024 19:06

I feel really sad for her.

Cancer is such an awful thing. I just witnessed a close family member go through it for months

IAmThe1AndOnly · 22/03/2024 19:09

The best place to post this would be in site stuff.
