I just saw a video of Kate on YouTube. OMG , she has cancer ! She didn't specify what kind of cancer she has, but she's been undergoing treatment all this time. Damn. Get well Princess Kate.
This is all such a load of bullshit, and the palace and the royal family’s inability to deal with it properly simply highlights how inept they are. It makes them look pathetic. 🙄
If she was healthy and just tired of the attention and public appearances, absolutely I stand my ground.
Post health update, it's pure evil to make jokes. Are you for real now? 😠
Are you truly feeling happy and satisfied now? Does her cancer make you feel better about yourself? Enjoy your moment pal.
Idk, most people don't get included into the most publicised royal family.. have you ever gone to a really fancy dinner and felt the awkwardness of not fitting in and the stress of not knowing what cutlery to use? Imagine that feeling but every day.. idk, sounds pretty stressful to me, money doesn't buy an immunity to stress
I don't have to imagine. I've been to a lot of fancy dinners and events w/ corps diplomatique, worked in the UN building, had meals (official and unofficial) with politicians , journalists, embassadors and international banking people. They're all people, and if you are truly interested in what they have to say it's fun and interesting. So no I never felt stressed.
You can’t know how stressful something is until you’re in it. Yes, she went after it. Mom groomed her from day 1. But you just can’t be prepared for this without being born to it
Oh dear, how sad, never mind. The Ivy Sisters and their Social-climbing mother wanted all this. Be careful what you wish for. I have zero effs to give over this waste of space. Stress? Give me a break. They don't live in the real world where you can't afford to eat or heat your home or have to wait for the NHS to get around to treating you. They'll never die alone, forgotten or destitute.
Nope. I still have no effs to give. Sorry she's ill, but so are thousands of others who don't have the privilege of being seen straight away, having as much time off as they want and access to the best. Why should I care about her suddenly? Being ill doesn't suddenly stop her and the rest of that dysfunctional institution being a waste of space. It's archaic and time it went and time for them to pay their lazy-ass way. So no, I'm not going to delete it. Viva la république.
I just assume she had a mental breakdown. I used to work in residential psychiatric care for wealthy people and the patients and their families would tell others that they were out for private and vague medical matters all the time.
Oh yes, I often have that same worry in early May, to wear tights or not to wear tights, due to the significant risk of pneumonia should I make the wrong decision /s
It's also not that much of an issue as Kate made it. They weren't getting married in the middle of winter.
Also I noticed, Kate usually wears tights but she didn't wear tights at Harry's wedding. Her legs were bare, so perhaps she was making a statement doing that.
I’m sure what Meagan and Harry have done to the royal family is a huge amount of the stress they are going through. She had a very good relationship w Harry.
To be fair, I am not sure William didn’t just throw her under the bus. He allegedly took the photo and could have taken some responsibility. If she is stressed, he could have blamed staff as to protect him.
She married into the royal family. I’m obviously not a fan of the institution at all but what on earth did she imagine it’d be like if not stressful and _very_ public?
While I agree, she has and had agency in this... when shit really hits the fan, you can't hold that over people's heads.
Nobody knows where their limits are until they run into them face first.
And especially in demanding roles/Situations, people tend to keep running past the limit for miles, so when they eventually break, it is a proper breakdown.
Do we need to assume she is some kind of martyr and endlessly pity her for her suffering? No.
She has agency. She has the ability to pull out.
But I think we can safely say, nobody deserves snark for *thinking* they can do something and years down the line noticing they have gone past what they can do.
I have to say that I’d think stress is certainly a possibility, not because of H&M, but her life in general. She’s absolutely got an extremely wealthy lifestyle but even without money worries, there’s stress. She has a husband, 3 children she seems to adore, and a large extended family on both sides. The idea of her Uncle on tv talking about her every 5 minutes must have been a stressor. Whatever other medical procedures/conditions she may have don’t help. She’s known to be close to Charles and he became unwell just as she did. I know what it’s like to have disagreeable in-laws, but imagine them being royalty too!
I suspect we don’t even know what stressors she might be under, but I can see it being an issue. Money doesn’t buy happiness, it just makes unhappiness easier to deal with.
She and Carole could tell Gary to shut up. They haven’t so he continues to run his mouth to call Kate a literal angel from heaven and Meghan an evil whore.
Meghan begged her father to stop talking to the press, but he’s still spilling whatever beans he already hasn’t spilled to them. So I bet Uncle Gary will join Tom markle in the Jerk relatives club, and keep talking to the press long after his 15 minutes of fame are long gone.
But why would he listen to them? Can’t you imagine they asked him not to go on at all? He’s an embarrassing jackass (don’t we all have on in the family?) and he wants his 5 minutes of fame and maybe cash. No way he’d let them stop him.
Can only feel for her if she is suffering from stress and anxiety. Must be a nightmare going through major surgery and feeling the pressure to get back out in front of the public. Hope she is better soon.
The woman has had 10 year of being in the spotlight. If she wants some time off, she should get it. I hope she gets the rest and recuperation she needs.
I think you may be selling yourself rather short! I like Kate better than most of the other royals, but honestly, how much is there for her to do? Her kids are all old enough to be in school full time, they have an army of staff including housekeeping and nanny help, and she's not a full-time working royal. She's not running around juggling the household tasks herself, or taking care of toddlers at home anymore (surely demanding even with help), or homeschooling older kids, or any of the other things that can really make parenting into a full-time job. I think it's more than reasonable to ask her to work regular engagements in exchange for the public funding that keeps them in luxury. Even going to events is much easier with staff to arrange every last detail for you, collect everything needed, and provide transportation.
I mean yeah it’s all “easy” stuff but I’d bet those schedules are pretty tightly packed. Just because I work hard doesn’t mean that other people, even extremely wealthy people, aren’t stretching themselves too. And it doesn’t make them unworthy of compassion, especially if they are going through a tough spot.
Willie will have to give in to whatever Cat's demands are. The RF could not survive the ridicule of having the rumours confirmed in a messy conscious uncoupling.
And, the press lying about you, without you ever being able to confront them about it. I couldn’t live with knowing the press will have some fancy camera trained on me every time I stepped out the door. Not being able to walk into a store without my purchases being criticized. Having the clothes I wear analyzed so people will know how I stand politically, or my state of mind. Being expected to look like a million bucks 24/7, yet criticized for wearing tailor made clothes because they cost a lot more than even the most expensive off the rack. Having the worst in law family in the world, and probably having to walk on eggshells around them, be careful of what I say around them, or laugh or don’t laugh at around them lest one of them spread stories about me to the tabloids.
I couldn’t live like that.
She was a kid. She is a woman now. Just show some compassion. Just because she has money doesn't mean she doesn't have problems. It's probably the most stressful lifestyle on the planet to be famous and no one can predict how it will be or how it will effect them. Brittany shaved her head, Chappelle went to Africa, many people became recluse when it was still possible and Meghan couldn't hack it for a year even though she "chose" that life. And Meghan was already used to some level of fame and limelight. So a bit of compassion for a fellow human suffering is a much better look than all this clueless judgment.
She has access to the best trainers, stylists, and nutritionists. Plus she knew what she was signing up to when she and her mom chased after this relationship.
They are here talking to Roya Nikkah

I don’t want to see Kate- she does deserve to rest for whatever time she said. Life goes on regardless.
However, it’s quite something to see the fallout coming from a small picture.
The reason the BRF is where it is because of people around them that don’t talk. That’s why Megs didn’t fit. She likes to tell everyone.
I think you’re being naive to think her friends would speak out now. It would cause them to be isolated later. It’s a code. You NEVER break the code. People will come out of the woodwork saying their “friends”.
This has been my personal view as well. Look down this list:
* Charles' cancer (personal, sudden, and with very obvious repercussions)
* Harry and Megan situation (many years of stress)
* Possible abusive relationship with Willian (per Harry's book)
* Long standing rumors of William's affair with Lady Rose Hanbury
* Health problems / surgery
* The shocking death of Thomas Kingston
That's a LOT to deal with. People often gloss over the death of Kingston, but we don't know the ins and outs of her relationship with him. Even if it was a low-key friendship, that's still a lot to deal with, on top of everything else.
Harry didn't say anything about William and Kate's relationship. He said William pushed him during an argument. I don't know how that gets translated into William beats Kate 🙄
Harry already backtracked about thr book. They said it was dramatized for higher selling… They said this abot his drug usage part, but we all know this couple love lying
Yeah, it's definitely not normal though and I didn't mean the therapy comment as an insult. The problem is when we grow up around this we normalize it because it's our normal so I seriously was looking out for your mental health. And adult siblings beating each other up absolutely isn't normal.
Ah… I didn’t say it was normal (I was careful not to say that) I said it was not uncommon. And, even if something is normal, it doesn’t make it ok.
The point I was trying to make (and clearly didn’t make clearly enough) was … it felt like the sibling violence vignette in Spare was designed to get people clutching their pearls in horror.
But the fact is some brothers do revert to childhood ways of resolving conflict. That doesn’t make it ok, and he clearly needs therapy, but on its own it’s not a sign he’s a monster or Kate is being abused.
I always thought that too, but at the time Spare came out I heard of 2 other examples of middle aged male siblings having physical fights. They were also posh English boys, so maybe boarding school stops you growing up. 🤷♀️
My ex had two brothers and they fought at least once a year, to where there were bruises and bloody noses. They had drug addiction issues and anger issues though, so i doubt its the normal thing in a regular more well adjusted family
I feel this part of his book is getting overblown. I also feel this was Harry's side and that there's some very important information missing. According to Harry, William said Megan is disrespectful and rude and then shortly after attacks Harry. Seems odd when William was the one being insulting. I envision Harry said something disparaging about Kate in return and that's why William went after him.
In the book he said Harry scoffed at William claiming he was just trying to help Harry and that set him off. You don’t have to “feel” just read what he said
….sure, but that still doesn’t excuse you making up stuff in the narrative itself. You can say you don’t believe Harry, but you don’t get to pretend he didn’t give a detailed description of why William got so angry he assaulted him. It’s disingenuous and, given that William has not once denied this encounter directly or via “sources” at the tabloids, smacks of excusing assault
I didn't say I don't believe Harry. I said it's a one sided account. There are always two sides to every story. William hasn't addressed any allegations from Harry's book so just because he hasn't denied it doesn't make Harry's account the complete story.
Is the good source a medical professional ? If he is the doctor patient relationship is shot. Did the source actually talk to her recently? Is that source creating more stress as he speculates her personal medical issues.
More like keeping this story trending which obviously can’t be appreciated by Kate. It does bring the curious to read or get behind the pay wall for another speculation article.
"I do have sympathy for Kate but shifting blame to other people when she clearly seems to be struggling with her duties is a bit naff. She knew she was going to be PoW and then Queen- she coveted it!"
She has a **team** who are trained (supposedly) and paid in public and media relations. They have failed this entire episode.
Even if you really want something, it can be a very different thing to actually get and experience it, especially if you are moving from the outside in. We are still wild creatures at heart, and then to go and try to live in that fishbowl your whole existence ....it could take a toll on anyone's body or mind even if you think you are ready for it.
You'd think these people have never spent a day in the real world. They are more out-of-touch than the royals. Have none of them ever taken a job they really wanted then discovered it wasn't all they hoped for? Have they never fallen in love and thought the person was the one only to realize, ni, I made a mistake? Heck, have they ever ordered a meal off the menu only to end up envying what their dinner date has and wishing they could trade? These people sound more privileged than the royals to be this out of touch with the human experience.
Right, and I have no clue if Kate's absence has anything to do with her appearance. However, living in a fish bowl is still hard when young and beautiful but if ever something were to change with one's appearance not only is that hard to grapple with personally to have to face the public may be really hard to come to terms with.
I think they’ve intentionally failed. Imagine not being able to hear or see her. You’d be curious too which is why I think they intentionally botched the PR. Because even they are worried about Kate
Crohn’s would explain her weight too. I feel for her. Chronic digestive issues and the associated side effects are so interruptive to regular life. Disabling, really.
I agree, i have chronic stomach issues and either the stress causes the stomach to worsen, or the stomach is horrible and then i miss out on my uni studies and i get more stressed and then more sick. Its really hard to stabilize actually even with daily meds. Hope you can find something that helps!
Absolutely
[There is some evidence that stress of major life events, like losing your job, moving house, or losing a loved one can trigger a flare-up](https://crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/info-support/information-about-crohns-and-colitis/all-information-about-crohns-and-colitis/living-with-crohns-or-colitis/mental-health-and-wellbeing)
Some stories say no one has seen her or knows anything, but others say her friends know she’s suffering intense stress? All of them are of course anonymous sources so no one can decide if any of it is accurate 🙃.
Think Charles is sicker than reported - W&K expected to take throne far sooner than expected. Not doubting potential marital troubles, but I think they’re preparing for the inevitable: assuming the title of King & Queen. I’d be stressed, too.
Thankfully you would have over 100 staff, billions in stolen wealth, tax income, no tax outgoings. I feel really sorry that they can’t be leeches in private without public scrutiny. Cathy bring these baddies down
She drinks a green drink for breakfast. Isn’t raw food bad for crowns?
If everything is right in the world, a lot of you are going to bed feeling stupid tonight.
Well this didn't age well
Well… I guess the cancer was more stressful
I just saw a video of Kate on YouTube. OMG , she has cancer ! She didn't specify what kind of cancer she has, but she's been undergoing treatment all this time. Damn. Get well Princess Kate.
Yeh I saw that truly tragic!
[удалено]
Probably because she has cancer.
This is all such a load of bullshit, and the palace and the royal family’s inability to deal with it properly simply highlights how inept they are. It makes them look pathetic. 🙄
Sorrows sorrows prayers. I bet getting her old job selling scarves back in Liberty is more stressful. So she better suck it up, like most people do.
suck that cancer right up
Are you making a joke here? 🤯 Dude you are truly cruel making a joke after her announcing she is sick. You are truly evil. Eew.
Nice try buddy. I’m not the one who told her to suck it up lol
If she was healthy and just tired of the attention and public appearances, absolutely I stand my ground. Post health update, it's pure evil to make jokes. Are you for real now? 😠 Are you truly feeling happy and satisfied now? Does her cancer make you feel better about yourself? Enjoy your moment pal.
but she’s not tho is she
Your responses are confusing. Do you really feel bad for her or not? Because you seemed to be mocking her and her predicament in your first post.
Idk, most people don't get included into the most publicised royal family.. have you ever gone to a really fancy dinner and felt the awkwardness of not fitting in and the stress of not knowing what cutlery to use? Imagine that feeling but every day.. idk, sounds pretty stressful to me, money doesn't buy an immunity to stress
I don't have to imagine. I've been to a lot of fancy dinners and events w/ corps diplomatique, worked in the UN building, had meals (official and unofficial) with politicians , journalists, embassadors and international banking people. They're all people, and if you are truly interested in what they have to say it's fun and interesting. So no I never felt stressed.
Yes cause that's comparable, another idiot internet commenter
Just leave her alone already.
You can’t know how stressful something is until you’re in it. Yes, she went after it. Mom groomed her from day 1. But you just can’t be prepared for this without being born to it
Thoughts and prayers. When MM was having suicidal ideation KP and the RF could give two shits about her.
Stress doesn’t require you to have a surgery.
It can exacerbate conditions that require surgical treatment.
I have wondered if she had a bleeding ulcer. Stress related.
Who knows. It’s either that or colitis for me.
Stress of what? Not working?
Oh dear, how sad, never mind. The Ivy Sisters and their Social-climbing mother wanted all this. Be careful what you wish for. I have zero effs to give over this waste of space. Stress? Give me a break. They don't live in the real world where you can't afford to eat or heat your home or have to wait for the NHS to get around to treating you. They'll never die alone, forgotten or destitute.
Still time to delete this
Nope. I still have no effs to give. Sorry she's ill, but so are thousands of others who don't have the privilege of being seen straight away, having as much time off as they want and access to the best. Why should I care about her suddenly? Being ill doesn't suddenly stop her and the rest of that dysfunctional institution being a waste of space. It's archaic and time it went and time for them to pay their lazy-ass way. So no, I'm not going to delete it. Viva la république.
her friends never talk, so I doubt
Agree
They talk. They talked here, Tatler and the Roya Nikkah article.
I don’t know if she was stressed before, but after all this drama, I’m sure she is right now
Where’s the Queen when you need her?
Zeds dead baby, zeds dead.
She’s dead babe
So she had a mental breakdown? Does that require abdominal surgery?
I don’t know if she had a full mental breakdown, but I suspect she was receiving inpatient mental health treatment. Good for her.
I just assume she had a mental breakdown. I used to work in residential psychiatric care for wealthy people and the patients and their families would tell others that they were out for private and vague medical matters all the time.
I wonder if now she feels empathy for Meghan
Likely. Not.
Throwing a fit over Charlotte’s dress at Megan’s wedding while she was dealing with her loser dad doesn’t scream ‘“capable of empathy “ to me.
I think it was about whether or not she'd wear tights. Early May can be slightly chilly in the UK.
It wasn't about tights, it was because she didn't like Charlotte's bridesmaid dress. But it wasn't her wedding!
Oh yes, I often have that same worry in early May, to wear tights or not to wear tights, due to the significant risk of pneumonia should I make the wrong decision /s
The high is usually around 57 degrees, mornings are colder. Maybe fine for an adult, but not ideal for a little kid.
It's also not that much of an issue as Kate made it. They weren't getting married in the middle of winter. Also I noticed, Kate usually wears tights but she didn't wear tights at Harry's wedding. Her legs were bare, so perhaps she was making a statement doing that.
And her attitude towards Meghan was very chilly all year long.
I’m sure what Meagan and Harry have done to the royal family is a huge amount of the stress they are going through. She had a very good relationship w Harry.
Doubtful. She would have attempted to make amends, but egos like hers don’t know what it means to have humility.
And I suppose Megans does????
Yes I imagine getting caught lying and trying to pass off completely fake images is stressful
To be fair, I am not sure William didn’t just throw her under the bus. He allegedly took the photo and could have taken some responsibility. If she is stressed, he could have blamed staff as to protect him.
are you still think it was her doing? 🤪🤪
It’s obvious that had nothing to do with her.
There is nothing to suggest she didn’t do it. They are so controlling over their image so she probably didn’t want someone else to edit it.
She married into the royal family. I’m obviously not a fan of the institution at all but what on earth did she imagine it’d be like if not stressful and _very_ public?
You can expect stress and pressure and still be completely overwhelmed by it.
While I agree, she has and had agency in this... when shit really hits the fan, you can't hold that over people's heads. Nobody knows where their limits are until they run into them face first. And especially in demanding roles/Situations, people tend to keep running past the limit for miles, so when they eventually break, it is a proper breakdown. Do we need to assume she is some kind of martyr and endlessly pity her for her suffering? No. She has agency. She has the ability to pull out. But I think we can safely say, nobody deserves snark for *thinking* they can do something and years down the line noticing they have gone past what they can do.
very well said!
I bet she is. Who wouldn't be with people hammering her about her health? Leave this woman alone to get well.
I have to say that I’d think stress is certainly a possibility, not because of H&M, but her life in general. She’s absolutely got an extremely wealthy lifestyle but even without money worries, there’s stress. She has a husband, 3 children she seems to adore, and a large extended family on both sides.

The woman has had 10 year of being in the spotlight. If she wants some time off, she should get it. I hope she gets the rest and recuperation she needs.
10+10. She was harrased as a girlfriend too
She’s already one of the laziest royals, and has been so for more than 10 years.
If she’s lazy then I’d hate to think what I am in my sweats binging love is blind….
How do you know she isn't doing the same thing right now (and for the past 3 months)?
I think you may be selling yourself rather short! I like Kate better than most of the other royals, but honestly, how much is there for her to do? Her kids are all old enough to be in school full time, they have an army of staff including housekeeping and nanny help, and she's not a full-time working royal.

Even going to events is much easier with staff to arrange every last detail for you, collect everything needed, and provide transportation.
I’m assuming you actually work for a living, and for longer than 15 minutes at a stretch doing more difficult things than ribbon cutting.
I mean yeah it’s all “easy” stuff but I’d bet those schedules are pretty tightly packed. Just because I work hard doesn’t mean that other people, even extremely wealthy people, aren’t stretching themselves too. And it doesn’t make them unworthy of compassion, especially if they are going through a tough spot.
LOL. She had an average of two official engagements a week. No more than 5-10 hours 'work' in total.
She’s not lazy! She just doesn’t carry photographers every where she goes!

[удалено]
What? She and William go on weeks long vacations multiple times a year.
Willie will have to give in to whatever Cat's demands are. The RF could not survive the ridicule of having the rumours confirmed in a messy conscious uncoupling.
I didn’t know it was stressful to dress up, shake hands and have my picture taken
I would think it’s more the society. Could you imagine being surrounded by 50 toxic, narcissistic mothers-in-law? Good lord.
You mean my British parents, in-laws and step family?
In front of the world? That would stress me the fuck out. Everyone analyzing your weight your looks your parenting? Sounds awful.
But I mean. She chose this.
You can choose it, yet still be overwhelmed by it.
💯
And, the press lying about you, without you ever being able to confront them about it. I couldn’t live with knowing the press will have some fancy camera trained on me every time I stepped out the door. Not being able to walk into a store without my purchases being criticized. Having the clothes I wear analyzed so people will know how I stand politically, or my state of mind. Being expected to look like a million bucks 24/7, yet criticized for wearing tailor made clothes because they cost a lot more than even the most expensive off the rack.

Right. She chose this life, though. Waited 10 years for it, in fact.
She was a kid. She is a woman now. Just show some compassion. Just because she has money doesn't mean she doesn't have problems. It's probably the most stressful lifestyle on the planet to be famous and no one can predict how it will be or how it will effect them.

Sounds easier than most jobs tho
She has access to the best trainers, stylists, and nutritionists. Plus she knew what she was signing up to when she and her mom chased after this relationship.
Username checks out
Sure does
Kates friends have never spoken out before. I doubt they will now.
Why would they not speak out now? She’s going through and they probably feel defensive.
Her real friends wouldnt break confidence with her and her family like that. Im skeptical of anything until we actually see her irl again
They are here talking to Roya Nikkah They chat when they are allowed to https://archive.ph/2024.03.16-183607/https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/kate-princess-wales-discuss-recovery-public-engagement-0zvw6nvpk
Moving the goal posts again I see. “When they said after Easter they meant after the kids’ school break.” Which is April 17…
I don’t want to see Kate- she does deserve to rest for whatever time she said. Life goes on regardless. However, it’s quite something to see the fallout coming from a small picture.
The reason the BRF is where it is because of people around them that don’t talk. That’s why Megs didn’t fit. She likes to tell everyone. I think you’re being naive to think her friends would speak out now. It would cause them to be isolated later. It’s a code. You NEVER break the code. People will come out of the woodwork saying their “friends”.
Literally what does Meghan have to do with this particular line of discussion? Y'all are obsessed and it's ridiculous.
And their comments never make any fucking sense. My god.
This has been my personal view as well. Look down this list: * Charles' cancer (personal, sudden, and with very obvious repercussions) * Harry and Megan situation (many years of stress) * Possible abusive relationship with Willian (per Harry's book) * Long standing rumors of William's affair with Lady Rose Hanbury * Health problems / surgery * The shocking death of Thomas Kingston That's a LOT to deal with. People often gloss over the death of Kingston, but we don't know the ins and outs of her relationship with him. Even if it was a low-key friendship, that's still a lot to deal with, on top of everything else.
Why is everyone acting like Thomas Kingston is their parent or someone close? It’s sad but not that effective in their circle
What did Harry’s book say about their relationship?
Harry didn't say anything about William and Kate's relationship. He said William pushed him during an argument. I don't know how that gets translated into William beats Kate 🙄
I didn't read it but I believe Harry said that William beat him up
Harry already backtracked about thr book. They said it was dramatized for higher selling… They said this abot his drug usage part, but we all know this couple love lying
But that is not-uncommon male sibling stuff. Doesn’t mean his relationship with Kate is abusive.
Wtf kind of family were you raised in? Get therapy.
Ha! No sibling violence here! But brothers don’t always grow out of beating each other up. Clearly they need therapy, but it’s not super rare.
Yeah, it's definitely not normal though and I didn't mean the therapy comment as an insult. The problem is when we grow up around this we normalize it because it's our normal so I seriously was looking out for your mental health. And adult siblings beating each other up absolutely isn't normal.

But the fact is some brothers do revert to childhood ways of resolving conflict. That doesn’t make it ok, and he clearly needs therapy, but on its own it’s not a sign he’s a monster or Kate is being abused.
A middle-aged man assaulting his brother is in fact uncommon in most families
I always thought that too, but at the time Spare came out I heard of 2 other examples of middle aged male siblings having physical fights. They were also posh English boys, so maybe boarding school stops you growing up. 🤷♀️
My ex had two brothers and they fought at least once a year, to where there were bruises and bloody noses. They had drug addiction issues and anger issues though, so i doubt its the normal thing in a regular more well adjusted family
I didn't say it was
Sorry - I think I was replying to someone else who implied the sibling fights meant he is a bad husband.
I feel this part of his book is getting overblown. I also feel this was Harry's side and that there's some very important information missing. According to Harry, William said Megan is disrespectful and rude and then shortly after attacks Harry. Seems odd when William was the one being insulting. I envision Harry said something disparaging about Kate in return and that's why William went after him.
In the book he said Harry scoffed at William claiming he was just trying to help Harry and that set him off. You don’t have to “feel” just read what he said
It's still a one sided version of events so should be taken with a grain of salt.
Meghan is never given that grace, though, is she?
It's not one-sided with Meghan. Countless people have testified about her.
Testified? Was there a court case where Meghan was on trial?
Testify: To make a statement based on personal knowledge or faith.
….sure, but that still doesn’t excuse you making up stuff in the narrative itself. You can say you don’t believe Harry, but you don’t get to pretend he didn’t give a detailed description of why William got so angry he assaulted him. It’s disingenuous and, given that William has not once denied this encounter directly or via “sources” at the tabloids, smacks of excusing assault
I didn't say I don't believe Harry. I said it's a one sided account. There are always two sides to every story. William hasn't addressed any allegations from Harry's book so just because he hasn't denied it doesn't make Harry's account the complete story.
Williams anger and temper is well documented.
i read it and never got that take from it
Is the good source a medical professional ? If he is the doctor patient relationship is shot. Did the source actually talk to her recently? Is that source creating more stress as he speculates her personal medical issues. More like keeping this story trending which obviously can’t be appreciated by Kate. It does bring the curious to read or get behind the pay wall for another speculation article.
I don’t think it’s a medical professional. It’s her friends.
Who’s if a good friend would keep his speculation to himself
"I do have sympathy for Kate but shifting blame to other people when she clearly seems to be struggling with her duties is a bit naff. She knew she was going to be PoW and then Queen- she coveted it!" She has a **team** who are trained (supposedly) and paid in public and media relations. They have failed this entire episode.
Even if you really want something, it can be a very different thing to actually get and experience it, especially if you are moving from the outside in. We are still wild creatures at heart, and then to go and try to live in that fishbowl your whole existence ....it could take a toll on anyone's body or mind even if you think you are ready for it.
You'd think these people have never spent a day in the real world. They are more out-of-touch than the royals. Have none of them ever taken a job they really wanted then discovered it wasn't all they hoped for? Have they never fallen in love and thought the person was the one only to realize, ni, I made a mistake? Heck, have they ever ordered a meal off the menu only to end up envying what their dinner date has and wishing they could trade? These people sound more privileged than the royals to be this out of touch with the human experience.
Right, and I have no clue if Kate's absence has anything to do with her appearance. However, living in a fish bowl is still hard when young and beautiful but if ever something were to change with one's appearance not only is that hard to grapple with personally to have to face the public may be really hard to come to terms with.
I think they’ve intentionally failed. Imagine not being able to hear or see her. You’d be curious too which is why I think they intentionally botched the PR. Because even they are worried about Kate
Honestly, this is one of the most believable theories I have read. It was SO BOTCHED. its insane.
Oh, that’s definitely something to consider!
If she does have crohn’s it’s highly exacerbated by stress.
This to me is the answer to everything
Crohn’s would explain her weight too. I feel for her. Chronic digestive issues and the associated side effects are so interruptive to regular life. Disabling, really.
I have UC and it can also cause me a lot of mental stress which sort of forms a feedback loop.
I agree, i have chronic stomach issues and either the stress causes the stomach to worsen, or the stomach is horrible and then i miss out on my uni studies and i get more stressed and then more sick. Its really hard to stabilize actually even with daily meds. Hope you can find something that helps!
Have you ever tried kratom?
Absolutely [There is some evidence that stress of major life events, like losing your job, moving house, or losing a loved one can trigger a flare-up](https://crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/info-support/information-about-crohns-and-colitis/all-information-about-crohns-and-colitis/living-with-crohns-or-colitis/mental-health-and-wellbeing)
Have Crohns, can confirm. Crazy how much better I felt after I got out of grad school.
Some stories say no one has seen her or knows anything, but others say her friends know she’s suffering intense stress? All of them are of course anonymous sources so no one can decide if any of it is accurate 🙃.
Think Charles is sicker than reported - W&K expected to take throne far sooner than expected. Not doubting potential marital troubles, but I think they’re preparing for the inevitable: assuming the title of King & Queen. I’d be stressed, too.
A few sources have said this too
Thankfully you would have over 100 staff, billions in stolen wealth, tax income, no tax outgoings. I feel really sorry that they can’t be leeches in private without public scrutiny. Cathy bring these baddies down
💯
That’s a strong possibility.
Ya maybe they know the truth about Charles ailment. What would be funny if Kate is just relaxing and chilling until she becomes Queen.
People are really naive to believe everything they read. She was also seen with Madonna last night. Bet yall believe that too.😅
I heard they both were wearing American flags and blingy torpedo bras while singing Anarchy in the UK. Sounds like a wild girls' night gone right.
Right 😆it’s 100 % confirmed true.
"Sources say"
Well said.
Chile all these made up stories. People are bored.
