Kensington Palace has had enough of wild rumors about Princess Kate. In mid-January, Prince William's wife (41) underwent abdominal surgery.

Since then she has not attended any public appointments. Kate's disappearance has sparked wild speculation, not least because of the palace's secrecy. Conspiracy theories about her whereabouts are even circulating on social media. The rumor mill will probably only stop churning once Kate returns to her royal duties. The last public appearance was at the Christmas service on December 25, 2023.
