Kate Middleton’s sudden radio silence has provoked outrage online. Between her disappearance from public view and a photo that aroused suspicions, conspiracy theories surrounding the Princess have run rampant. Everyone appears to have an opinion, and the world has gone wild, from the United States to the United Kingdom and beyond. Everyone wants to know where the princess is. But one voice is missing from the conversation: the palace itself. Why is there so much silence?
The sheer volume of conspiracy theories, including cheating theories, false death news, and so on, might prompt anyone to release a bold declaration to put an end to the conjecture. However, when the royal family gets involved, the situation changes. “I would have thought that Catherine would have done a good enough job to be left in peace for three months, but not … why should she have to talk about her personal and private health?” Hugo Vickers, an author and close friend of the royals, told Page Six.

Considering how difficult and upsetting it might be for Kate herself, who is still recovering from the surgery, he added. “This must be very upsetting for her. I don’t think she needs to talk about it.” However, the writer didn’t shy away from acknowledging that it is human nature to be curious about what’s happening. “The fact that Catherine disappeared for three months, people were bound to say, ‘Well, why, what’s going on?’ — and the void can be filled with these ghastly conspiracy theories.”
The insider added that one could have easily believed, considering the countless signs that the Princess of Wales is happy and active, particularly after the Windsor farm video aired. However, “conspiracy theorists love their theories,” he said. Another reason for the palace’s silence on these ‘ridiculous’ charges was reportedly Prince William’s unwillingness to reveal too much information regarding his wife’s condition, which was most likely due to the media and public scrutiny of his mother Diana’s every move. According to an insider, “William is justifiably worried about the parallels to his mother, Diana.” “This haunts him. He believed that the rest of the world had learned lessons that we had not. The source adds.
Despite all of the reports from various sources and insiders, the Palace and Kate will go slowly and methodically. The royal family has traditionally followed the adage “never complain, never explain,” but branding consultant Mark Borkowski claims it is no longer as successful as it once was. “They’ve failed to navigate the treacherous waters of social media, sticking to traditional tactics,” he went on to say. “To put it bluntly, celebrity privacy is a lie. Borkowski claims. “Even before the present crises, [William] was adamant about separating royal duties from family time. But this ‘half in, half out’ attitude has clearly failed.”
