Kate Middleton’s Treatment Proves Royal Family Is Shadier Than You Thought

Kate’s upcoming schedule fuels rumors about her treatment.

Though the public can’t wait for Kate to get back to her royal duties, it looks like that won’t be happening any time soon. Her rep quietly rewrote her plans for returning to the public, setting off alarms. It appears that they don’t want it to look like the Princess of Wales is working too much from home, as it would lead to questions about just how much she’s capable of at the moment.

Buckingham Palace released a statement to the Daily Mail, simply saying, “She will return to work when she has had the green light from doctors.” They didn’t volunteer a timeline of when health officials might give this approval.

Expectations of Kate coming back to the spotlight were further disrupted when sources revealed that she doesn’t have any approaching plans marked in her calendar. Beyond the near future, the source revealed that “Kate’s diary for this year is empty” and that she wouldn’t be appearing publicly for the rest of 2024.

It looks like Kate Middleton’s comeback to the limelight is still far away, fitting in with the assumption that she’s receiving her treatments outside the U.K. The person who posted the original TikTok video suggesting this claim ruminated on what additional travel time would mean for the royal, saying, “If there is travel time involved for these treatments, that would be adding to the really long timeline for her recovery and return to work.”
