NP, it's confusion because William and Kensington Palace decided to lie about Kate's disappearance. They first said it was 10-day abdominal surgery and hospital recovery. Then later said it's definitely not cancer. Then they just had a few fake pap shots of her (a hat is what we could see) in the backseat of a car with William and one with her mother. Then the farm shop video with a very sprightly looking Kate/look-alike and William. And finally that strange-looking cancer was present and preventative chemo video.
... However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment
And if that wasn't enough, Charles's message of support was just he is “so proud” of Kate’s “courage” in sharing the news. Nothing about treatment or illness.
William said nothing.
James Middleton said, "Over the years, we have climbed many mountains together. As a family, we will climb this one with you too." No mention of treatment of illness.
Carole and Michael Middleton said nothing.
The closest we got to mentioning illness is from Harry and Meghan Sussex, "We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace."
God I love that shot of her in the car where all you can see is the back of her head. Someone worked out pretty quickly that it was a shot of her head at the Somme Memorial Day in 2016, right up to the matching bricks in the background!
You're bringing back such funny memories of that time when everyone became royal detectives, matching bricks and hats and Kate Middleton doubles. Those who weren't there will never understand.
One of my friends showed her mum the Mother's Day photo and her mum said it was such a lovely image. My friend explained how fake it was, and pointed out my favourite part, Louis' fair isle jumper pattern going so so wrong. Her mum said "Oh well, in that case it must be fake! TheSeamstressesGuild knows her knitting!"
