Kate Middleton’s Latest Appearance Raises More Questions

Kate Middleton, the Royal Family member engulfed in controversy over the doctoring of a recent family photo, made a daytime appearance where she appeared happy and healthy following abdominal surgery.

However, the stroll through a farm was made more notable for what it didn’t include: photographic evidence that she was there.

The development is even more mind-boggling when you consider the recent ‘photoshop scandal’ where Middleton’s face was allegedly photoshopped to appear she was with her children. What is really going on here and where is Middleton?

Onlookers allegedly spotted the Princess of Wales and her husband, Prince William, visiting a farm shop in Winsor over the weekend after watching their children Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, play a sporting event, according to the New York Post. Despite eyewitness accounts of the visit, no one managed to snap a couple of the royal couple at the Windsor Farm Shop where they ostensibly went to enjoy its café or shop for produce.

“After all the rumors that had been going ’round, I was stunned to see them there,” one eyewitness shared with the Sun. “Kate was out shopping with William, and she looked happy and she looked well.”

Middleton, 42, underwent a sudden surgical procedure that left her sidelined from the public eye for months, fueling speculation about her health and well-being among the notoriously voracious British tabloids. In an attempt to quell the questions, the Royal Palace released a UK Mother’s Day photo of the princess and her family that was quickly identified as being digitally altered in several key areas and received a “kill notice” by major press agencies for its inauthenticity.

Aides to Middleton said it’s conceivable she will publicly address her absence in the future though will not “rush” her into making a statement.

“I can see a world in which the princess might discuss her recovery out on engagements,” a royal source told The Sunday Times over the weekend, adding that she and Prince William are “at their most open” when interacting with members of the public. “If she was going to do it, that’s how she would do it.”

The princess was last spotted at a Christmas Day church ceremony in Sandringham, England. She is not expected to return to her official duties until Easter, which falls on March 31st.
