Off The Record
Royal Expert Shares Heartbreaking Truth Behind Latest Kate Middleton Picture
Kate Middleton hadn’t been seen in public since Christmas Day. On Monday, American news site TMZ got the princess on camera out of the blue. For a number of reasons, no British tabloid chose to print the picture. However, it has become the talk of the town, and more questions are being raised about Kate’s health.
The Army said yesterday that the Princess of Wales will be going on her first public event after her surgery. It wasn’t there for long, though, before it was taken down, and Kensington Palace hasn’t confirmed that yet. In the meantime, her uncle has chosen not to tell anyone what she is doing.
A lot of people who know a lot about the royal family have said things about the new spy picture of Kate. One of the main themes is that Kate is suddenly looking weak. One person thinks that Kate probably didn’t want her picture taken, while another says it shows a “depressing” truth about her life right now.
News says that the princess is on her way back to normal life. There is still about a month until Easter, which was originally thought to be the end of her recovery.
The first picture of Kate Middleton after surgery was made public.
The first picture of Kate Middleton taken after her surgery was shared by the American news site TMZ on March 4. Princess Kate is wearing sunglasses in the passenger seat of a car in the new picture. She hasn’t been seen in public since Christmas Day.
At the same time, Kate Middleton has asked for privacy while she heals, so the picture has not yet been published in a British newspaper.
Kate’s schedule has been completely clear since January 16, when she went to the hospital for the planned surgery on her abdomen. Now we know for sure when her first outing will be after she gets better.
Tuesday, the Minister of Defense said that Kate Middleton will go to the dress practice for Trooping the Colour on June 8, which is the day before the big event on June 15. Kensington Palace has yet to announce that the Princess of Wales will be at the event, and it looks like they made a big mistake just hours later.
Several British newspapers said that an Army website had taken down an event about Kate Middleton’s possible return to royal service. GB News says that Kensington Palace was “not consulted” about how the Princess of Wales would look.
A lot of royal fans are afraid about Kate’s health, and some have asked the palace to give them more information about how she is doing. A spokesperson for the royal family said that the palace “made it clear in January” that they would provide significant updates” when they were needed.
A royal expert says that the Palace is to blame for “fueling” rumors about Kate Middleton.
Many royal experts are now calling for Kate and the palace to do something about the situation after TMZ released the first picture of Kate after her surgery. This is because rumors are spreading.
While Kate Middleton is healing from surgery, Kensington Palace has done everything possible to protect her privacy. When she left or arrived at the hospital, no pictures of her got out. A few weeks ago, when she and her family went to their Anmer Hall home in Sandringham, they didn’t see any photographers.
A picture of Kate has been leaked, which is likely seen as a failure and disappointment for the house.
Meanwhile, Jack Royston, the chief royal correspondent for Newsweek, says that the situation is worse because the government hasn’t given the people enough information, even though they have been asked to.
Royston told Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, “The kind of secrecy that Kensington Palace brought to this situation fuelled completely feverish wild speculation online, and that creates the demand that means TMZ know that they’re going to make big bucks running these pictures because they know that huge numbers of people are going to go and click on this story.”
“And that means that they can pay big amounts of money to the photographer, which makes it worth the photographer’s while to take the risk to get these pictures.”
Royston said Kensington Palace could have handled last week’s events better and made them go away.
“Kate could have taken a picture herself. She could have taken a selfie. William could have taken it. It didn’t need to be a good picture. Didn’t need to be a high-res image. It just needed to be a picture or a little video like Charles did,” he continued.
An expert says the picture of Kate was “definitely” not faked.
According to the royal expert, Kensington Palace has let it “snowball into a massive thing” because they haven’t done enough to protect Kate.
In an interview with Good Morning Britain, Jack Royston said, “What’s effectively happened is they’ve allowed this to snowball into a massive thing, and if they’d got ahead of it then they would have actually protected Kate better.”
“It probably felt to them at the time like they were protecting her and shielding her by just leaving her to get on with her recovery undisturbed but actually this is not protecting Kate. Her being papped in Windsor, the [Daily] Mail is speculating that she may have been on the school run, that that’s not protecting her. She was not going to feel protected in this moment.”
Some people have said that Kate might have wanted a picture taken while she was in the car. But Christopher Andersen, who wrote The King, said it was “definitely” not staged.
“She was trying to sneak out of Windsor with her mother and was clearly not pleased that they had been spotted by a photographer,” Andersen told Fox. “This cloak-and-dagger stuff is only going to fuel more speculation about what’s really going on with Kate and with her father-in-law, King Charles.
He added, “In its typically smug fashion, the palace issued a statement last week insisting that everything was going according to plan. They never explained, however, why Kate spent weeks in the hospital after ‘planned abdominal surgery’ and has needed to remain closeted away for months. It’s all been terribly fishy from the get-go.”
Kate Middleton chose not to share details of her medical condition with the public
Kate Middleton has the same right to privacy as everyone else, even though she is the Princess of Wales and will soon be queen. She chose not to talk about her medical situation, which she is legally allowed to do, because she had surgery on her abdomen in January.
On the other hand, King Charles told everyone everything while he was getting treatment for a swollen prostate.
The king said in a statement that he did it because he thought it would encourage other men to get advice and checkups as well. People quickly started to talk about whether Kate Middleton shouldn’t have done the same thing and told everyone what she was going through.
People have had a lot of ideas about Kate Middleton’s health in the past month. One doctor said it might take her up to nine months to get better. According to a royal expert, Kate lives in Adelaide Cottage with Prince William and their three kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The expert said that the house was too cold for Kate to get better in. The person who knew about Kate’s mental health said she should rest for as long as she could.
At the same time, Kensington Palace has only said a few things about Kate’s health. The most recent one says that she is doing well. Kensington Palace hasn’t put out a single picture of her, which raises some questions.
Christopher Andersen, author of “The King,” asked Fox if Kate is really doing well. Because if she is, he continued, she could have stepped outside and “smile for photographers.”
“Keep in mind that members of the royal family in particular are famous for getting out there [and] keeping up appearances no matter what,” Andersen said. “Queen Elizabeth never spent months recovering from an illness, and over the course of her 70-year reign, she dealt with a number of serious medical issues. So, the mystery surrounding Kate’s surgery and what it was for deepens.”
Even though Kate wanted to keep things quiet, Andersen thought it “wouldn’t have hurt” her to “pop her head above the parapet every now and then.”
People have said that the royal author is too private and doesn’t share information with royal fans, but she says it’s not too late to change that.
“It may also be that her medical problem, whatever it is, gave her a new appreciation of what she regards as truly important in life – spending time at home with her children. Kate really is such a pro at handling the press and the public, for her to remain out of sight like this really has to make one wonder: What in God’s name is going on?” he concluded.
It’s true that Kate Middleton and her husband, Prince William, thought a lot about how to handle the surgery and how people would react when they said they wouldn’t say anything specific about it or her recovery.
A royal expert tells the heartbreaking truth about the latest picture of Kate Middleton
Did they maybe not take into account how much the public wants to know about things they think they should know? Daniela Elser says that the paparazzi photo of Kate made public on TMZ’s website is part of a bigger, less happy story.
“Was Kensington Palace and William’s Kate’s blackout a huge mistake? Was this plan always going to fail in a time when people want more openness and accountability from government?” Elser wrote about it in a News.com.au column. For how long does a future Queen get to be alone and have their own space?
“With these new images, it’s depressing that it looks a lot like Kate felt she had to let her face be seen in public to stem the tide of delirium. There is something just a bit screwy and upsetting and off-kilter about the internet rabble being able to alter the plan for the 42-year-old’s recovery.”
Moreover, Elser added that Prince William had played a part in the picture even being released. Last week, he canceled royal duty for a “personal matter,” which initially sparked rumors about Kate’s health.
It was later proven it wasn’t, but as the explanation was, as Elser describes as “purposefully vague,” he didn’t make it easier for his wife.
“Why isn’t he helping clean it up”
“Thus, the prince helped make the mess – why isn’t he helping clean it up? Why has it fallen to Kate, who had some sort of surgery significant enough to warrant two weeks in hospital, to dispel the grab bag of daft theories about where she is and what might be going on?” she continued.
Daniela Elser concluded her piece with an analysis of the latest picture of Kate, asking if she really “look like a woman who is ready or keen to be back on display” or to be “put on public view like a museum specimen.”
“I suppose if there is one lesson to be drawn from all this is that princesses might get all the gee-gaws and diamonds they might fancy but choice? Freedom? Real independence? Maybe there’s no such thing as a free ten-bedroom Norfolk estate after all. Everything has a price,” Elser stated.
