You don’t think it’s bad that Catherine had her phone hacked? That paparazzi zoomed in on her and took photos of her sunbathing nude on private property? Thankfully, the British press refused to publish them — but that didn’t stop international outlets from plastering them everywhere.
Or what about the time a radio station prank-called the hospital while she was being treated, trying to get her medical information? A nurse ended up taking her own life as a result.
And more recently, the “Where’s Kate?” frenzy on social media spilled into mainstream news, pressuring her into announcing her cancer diagnosis on a global stage.
I don’t like comparing suffering — everyone’s experiences with press intrusion have been awful. But personally, I feel Catherine has endured some of the worst treatment, especially considering how private and dignified she’s always tried to be.
