To put it mildly? This hasn’t been the best month of Prince William’s life (or, of course, Princess Kate, who continues to recover from the blow to the body of abdominal surgery and the blow to the soul as the world’s collective target of vitriol).
What started from the viral question “Where is Kate Middleton?” turned hateful and distrustful after Photogate; conspiracy theories continue after William and Kate were spotted at Windsor Farm Shop over the weekend (trolls claimed it wasn’t Kate at all but a body double, or AI, or, or, or). Then, the final blow—news broke this week that staff at The London Clinic, where Kate underwent abdominal surgery, had allegedly tried to access Kate’s private health data. (The Mirror reports that three staff members reportedly looked at Kate’s information after she left hospital on January 29.)
