Kate Middleton’s unhinged dive into being media fodder exposed, says royal expert

Kate Middleton and Prince William are reportedly navigating a daunting new chapter in their royal duties, according to royal commentator and expert Daniela Elser. In a recent piece for News.com.au, Elser shed light on the “personal hell” the Windsors have endured in the early months of 2024. She began by taking a trip down memory lane, recounting the significant events and challenges that have shaped their year so far.

Elser pointed out that the royal couple has been dealing with a series of unprecedented challenges that have tested their resilience and adaptability. “Kate and William are venturing into terrifying new waters, facing pressures and expectations like never before,” she wrote.

In that piece, she took a trip down memory lane and recounted how “We now know that tests done after the surgery in January found cancer, a fact that would be kept under wraps for another two more months, during which time the Waleses suffered through what would have to be one of the hardest, if not the hardest, period of their life together.”

“Social media, like nature, abhors a vacuum and soon theories about the princess, ranging from mildly bonkers to tinfoil-helmet-wearing deranged, were mutating and spreading across the internet.”

At the time, “Kensington Palace seemed to have no idea how to even begin to get the faintest grip on the situation.” So “Kate, according to the wild surmising, was either locked up in a Scottish tower or was planning to divorce William to move to Santa Fe to sell dreamcatchers.”

Ms Elser also went on to reference some other theories that came to light and said, “Other theories implied she had had enough of having to live so close to Prince Andrew chipping golf balls around Windsor Home Park or even wanted to move to Shropshire to take religious vows.”

“Things only took a turn for the even more unhinged when, on February 27, William pulled out of attending his godfather King Constantine of Greece’s memorial service at St George’s Chapel; a reported four-minute drive from the Waleses’ home, less than an hour before it started citing a mysterious ‘personal matter’. More foil for everyone!

The commentator highlighted several key issues, including the ongoing scrutiny of their public and private lives, as well as the increasing demands of their royal roles. “The start of 2024 has been particularly taxing for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. They have had to navigate a complex landscape of public expectations and private struggles,” Elser noted.

She also referenced the broader context of the royal family’s turbulent start to the year, marked by controversies and internal conflicts. “The Windsors have faced a series of crises that have brought their personal and professional challenges to the forefront,” Elser explained. “From public scandals to private tensions, the early months of 2024 have been nothing short of a personal hell for the family.”
