Will Kate Middleton address the rumours? Or is the Princess of Wales destined to walk a similar path to her late mother-in-law? 

Kate, the Princess of Wales, hasn’t been spotted in public since Christmas, which has sparked a lot of conjecture and conspiracy theories. This extended hiatus has some royal watchers drawing comparisons to the troubled marriage of the late Princess Diana and Prince Charles.

Following a “planned abdominal surgery” in January, Kensington Palace announced Kate would be taking a leave of absence from royal duties until Easter. While an understandable recovery period, the extended silence has fueled unease. 

What truly ignited the rumour mill was Kate’s first photo appearance in months on Mother’s Day. Keen observers noticed discrepancies, leading to allegations of photo manipulation by major agencies. This incident intensified public scrutiny.

Amidst this media frenzy, whispers of Prince William’s alleged affair with Lady Rose Hanbury resurfaced. In 2019, reports surfaced of William dining with the married Lady Rose, sparking rumours of infidelity while Kate was pregnant with their third child. 

These rumours bear an unsettling resemblance to the situation faced by Princess Diana. Like Prince Charles’ alleged longtime attachment to Camilla Parker Bowles, rumours suggest William may have harboured feelings for Rose before marrying Kate. Diana famously exposed Charles’ infidelity, leading to a tumultuous separation and eventual divorce.

Royal biographer Omid Scobie has dismissed the cheating rumours in his book “Endgame,” and both William and Lady Rose have maintained silence. However, the lack of official statements and Kate’s continued absence keep the speculation alive. 

The reports that the BBC’s events unit is anticipating a “major announcement” from the royal family related to a health crisis are adding to the mystery. Speculation runs wild, with some, like the TikTok channel Popapologists, suggesting the BBC may be preparing for a “wedding, coronation, or funeral.”

According to some sources, Kate is expected to address her health issues upon returning to royal duties after April 17th. According to insiders, William is getting her ready for her first public appearance following surgery.
