The Duchess of Cambridge is recovering from a surgical procedure that has generated much speculation
Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince William of England, has been giving a lot to talk about in recent weeks. The British royal family has not known how to manage communication about her health well, and has left many doubts and rumors in the air. According to reports, the duchess underwent abdominal surgery, but no further details were given. Since then, she has been speculated with all kinds of theories, from a possible pregnancy to cancer. What is known is that Kate will be on leave for more than two months, and that she barely leaves her house. This suggests that her situation is more serious than they have wanted to admit.
The retouched image that has outraged many
To try to calm things down, the royal family has shared the first current photo of Kate Middleton, in which she appears sitting and smiling with her three children. However, far from reassuring, the image has caused more stir, since it has been discovered that it has been manipulated with Photoshop. Some of the details that give it away are that Kate is not wearing the ring on her finger, that her legs look very thin, and that the tree behind her has her leaves like in autumn. Furthermore, the youngest son has his fingers crossed, as if he is lying or wishing luck.
Kate herself has had to admit that she has edited the photo, and has apologized for any confusion it may have caused. In a message, she has explained that she, like other amateur photographers, sometimes experiments with editing. She has also expressed her wish that everyone had a good Mother’s Day, and she has signed off as Catherine.
What’s really wrong with Kate Middleton?
The question remains in the air, and no one seems to have a clear answer. Some television experts have suggested that the photo could be old, and that Kate could be pregnant or have some serious health problem. Others have believed that this is a strategy by the royal family to divert attention from other more delicate issues, such as the Prince Andrew scandal or the tension with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The truth is that Kate Middleton remains a mystery, and that her operation and her photo have caused more headaches than solutions.
