Kate Middleton has surpassed her husband Prince William as the UK’s most popular royal following her emotional cancer announcement, a new poll shows.

In a prerecorded clip shared on March 22, the Princess of Wales revealed her health woes to the world, saying doctors discovered her cancer during a planned abdominal surgery in January.

According to a British YouGov poll, Middleton, 42, has since become the nation’s most favored member of the royal family between February and April of this year.

It's weird because people seem to have forgotten about this.

I just remembered last night and decided to do a bit of digging but no, she still hasn't been seen!

Its all very strange : https://people.com/prince-william-returns-social-media-personal-message-after-kate-middleton-cancer-news-8629431

Indeed.

I may be wrong on this but I don't think any of the kids have been seen either. William could have taken them to that Royal Easter Service but they didn't go...

Mrs FootOfDavros is very much a conformist Royalist but was not 100% onboard when I asked her what her views on the "AI" video would be if we never see Kate alive again and they just announce she has died at some point in the future (which I'm kind of starting to believe may well be a possibility)...

BBC REFUSES to respond to our Freedom of Information request as to whether AI/Deepfake technology was used in the 'Kate Middleton' video:

"Information that relates to the BBC’s output, or information that supports and is closely
associated with these creative activities, is considered to be held by the BBC for the
purposes of art, journalism or literature.

Such information held by the BBC and other
public service broadcasters falls outside the scope of the FOI Act.

It is important that the BBC is an independent and impartial news organisation."

Why couldn't they have just replied with a simple NO to put the speculation to rest?

Some folks are speculating she is dead. The disgusting UK press is too busy writing shitty stories about Harry and Meghan when they could be writing how William is taking care of his family and etc., but nothing.

Has prince william really been seen? I don’t follow it that closely, but clearly all of her “videos” are photoshopped or AI.

Very strange.

The last time William was seen is when he went shopping at a farmer's market with his girlfriend, whom was not his wife. She looked to be in her late 20s. He tried to pass her off as his wife. LMAO!

[–] TheHardSell (671) a month ago

Yes, that was the last time he was seen!

He attended a funeral service alone for some toff acquaintance of the royals (I think) a couple of weeks before the cancer announcement. Pretty sure some other royals were in attendance.

But it seemed a bit odd that following that, he didn't appear with the kids at the royals Easter service...

That's sad, how her popularity (which was already pretty good) skyrockets after a terrible announcement like that :(

Evidently the NY Post got it wrong. The doctors discovered her cancer after her surgery, when they were taking blood tests on her to make sure she was okay after the procedure, whatever it was.

Old or new clip?
