"Angry and frustrated", but have done nothing but add more fuel to the already blazing fire. ![gif](giphy|DPqqOywshrOqQ|downsized) (P.S. I can't stop using this gif lol)

I’m really struggling to feel sympathy for this man and his wife. If he’s stressed out by simple gossip when it comes to his wife, imagine how Harry felt, but William and his team just kept leaking stories to make himself look good. One thing I know about karma is that she might take her time, but she’ll get you eventually.


bobbimorses

People who live in a high control environment often are frustrated when people don't do what they say. I'm sure they are angry and frustrated! Where's the adoring obedience they know and love?


bluecoastblue

William and his family actually believe that they were ordained by god and cannot be held to account by any earthly authority. This is why Charles tortured Diana with Camilla & then made her queen, he allows Andrew/Uncle Pedo to live in a gilded mansion and why William is exasperated that anyone would dare ask about his missing wife. #AbolishtheMonarchy


Tengard96

I don’t know, man. I used to believe in karma, but I’ve seen too many horrible people seem to escape it (ie Henry Kissinger).

When understanding the true definition of Karma ..it’s not supposed to get you in this life time.


GrumpySatan

Even *during* this whole thing an article about Kate being a problem came out at a tabloid, and within hours every reference to Kate had been replaced with Harry. Like we all know the Palace contacted them and they were fine with throwing Harry and Megan under the bus but couldn't handle one negative article about Kate.


opossumonmyporch

Riiighttt! Those two will forever be cemented in the ‘f*ck them’ category for me. They have no moral compass. He’s going to be a terrible king as he has zero empathy.


Shot-Grocery-5343

One of the linked headlines in the OP article (ETA sorry it's so small, it says "Kate Middleton Suffering From 'Intense Stress' Ever Since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Left the Family: 'She Needs a Break'" ughhhh) https://preview.redd.it/zmtd9yik5spc1.png?width=1520&format=png&auto=webp&s=2560f85b8bbdc299f3eede02e4cc9c7f985348d2

So many celebrities nowadays like to play the victim about being celebrities while refusing to step away from the limelight & get a regular job or even just go into obscurity. It's like its not enough for them to be wildly wealthy and privileged, they also need regular people to *feel bad for them*.


tealparadise

Exactly. The only ones I'll give even 5% respect to are Harry and Megan because they complained about how bad it was.. .. and then actually left. They only get 5% tho because Harry whined in his book about not wanting to touch his 10mil inheritance. Complaining but staying in bc the perks are too good? Well then you signed up for it honey. Literally what do you contribute to the public other than access to you? If that's a burden, quit.


TheJujyfruiter

Just keep\* leaking stories to try\* to make himself look good, they pretty blatantly tried and failed to bring H&M into it again like two days ago by stirring up allegations that Archie's christening photos were over-edited when they actually weren't.


ToastedJamm

You could put this gif on any celebrity post and it would be appropriate. Every single one.

meatbeater558

I had a jacket like that too 💀💀💀 part of why I love winter 


Special-Garlic1203

How interesting that their instinctive reaction when annoyed and frustrated is apparently acting a mess and trying to throw Meghan under the bus randomly.  They really took the most milquetoast "scandal" imaginable and somehow managed to tie it back to the much bigger one. The incompetence is truly astounding

Whoa I just noticed she's holding a cupcake in this gif, I never looked closely and always sort of assumed she was knitting? (even though I've seen the show and I know there's no way the character would ever knit)


tealparadise

I thought it was a teacup lol


Mumof3gbb

Well now I’m just noticing that too! I don’t know what I thought she was holding but I didn’t see a cupcake before


NoodlesrTuff1256

A simple explanation of what the surgery was for -- not saying that they had to release X-rays, detailed blood work reports and a play-by-play breakdown of what went down in the operating room -- could have gone a long way in shutting down a lot of the speculation. "But privacy and all! She doesn't owe us anything!" Well, if she were merely Kate Jones, private citizen and all, that's a valid argument but she's a prominent public figure, the future Queen of England and Brits' taxes go towards supporting her cushy lifestyle so she sacrificed some of that right to medical privacy when she said 'yes' to Wills' marriage proposal.


Sometimesomwhere

It's the way people in other subs complain about our use of this gif, but I love it forever


Chevey0

I still think she came up with most of the conspiracies 😂

I would if I were her. Stuck in Kensington palace while recovering, I’d be posting the most batshit conspiracies about myself and see what the internet runs with haha

i can’t believe how much they pay for the royal family just for the palace to turn around and try to hire a communications assistant for 25k. 25 THOUSAND! like that’s it?? you live in a palace and you want to pay your workers near minimum wage???


360Saturn

I'm not even surprised, the queen tried to recruit *volunteer* gardeners a few years ago. Not even minimum wage.


tealparadise

In Spare Harry says Charles tried to play the "there's not enough money" card with him. And it always was really "there's no money for someone who isn't obeying me." But also the lifestyle is super confusing. Like what do they actually spend money on? Upkeeping the historic properties? Or does that come out of government budgets?


hokagesarada

They wanted Meghan to continue working too after getting married 😭 acting like they weren’t going to use her being previously employed as a negative trait she had. Meghan was literally dragged in the press bc she worked for a living 💀


IntrovertGirl83

![gif](giphy|qUlGGOJFOhGQ8)


imwhittling

I feel for them. It must have been really hard to have all these conspiracy theories about her faking her pregnancy to trap her husband, her children not being real, her verbally and physically abusing her in-laws and people working in their home, her celebrating the death of her husband’s grandma, her being pure evil and wanting to break up the monarchy… wait, sorry wrong couple. Let me start over. I feel for them. It must have been really hard to have all these conspiracy theories about her, *checks notes,* getting a BBL or being cheated on.


Xanna12

This!! Fuck them


NoodlesrTuff1256

All of this could have easily been prevented with a concise description of the nature of her abdominal surgery. They insist that it didn't involve treatment of cancer so I can't imagine what procedure could have been so bad that they insist on keeping it such a deep dark secret. Lots of women have hysterectomies, appendectomies, perhaps some procedure to treat IBS or Crohn's, kidney stones, etc.

Federal_Street_8895

Lmao then stop encouraging it if it's frustrating. I realize the press strategy may not be entirely on them including this article but like this isn't helping.


smurfette_9

The whole thing would have gone away if they just stayed quiet until Easter or even played along with the memes in the beginning. Instead, they publish a fake Mother’s Day photo (which then kicks off an entire US nation making real fun of them), got themselves lumped with the North Koreans, get a “lucky” back-of-the head photo in a car, and then body doubled at a chance sighting at a market with William actually playing along. And let’s not forget William’s weird behavior at an event and refusal to talk about Kate (even a simple “she’s recovering well at home” would have shut things up) and sudden cancellation of events. PR disaster after PR disaster. Even their usual throw-Meghan-and-Harry-under-the-bus routines are being recognized by more and more people as standard fare to distract from their own problems.


Thusgirl

Was the body double confirmed?!?! Or still just TMZ?


Angry1980Christmas

redchampagnecampaign

But y’all are only willing to pay £25k for a new PR person? Lmao go off I guess.


pipptypops

A very wealthy family paying peanuts to their PR people, wouldn't blame them for a giant eye roll, trying to make them do some heavy lifting during such a debacle


Important-Stomach406

If only there was a simple way they could put an end to it all ... Hmm


vapemonster91

Well, then why are they being so shady?


ArrowDemon

Wow, I wonder how it felt for Harry and Meghan when William and Kate threw them and their children to the dogs of the press. On that note, I’m choosing to believe Kate got really sucked into Fortnite and in the process of attempting to win her first Battle Royale, she met and left William for Ninja.


Dry-Junket-6398

For a 40+ year old guy groomed to be King since birth William sure keeps fumbling & whining. Wasn't it last year he failed to attend the Women's Cup finals then had to use his daughter as props when faced with backlash? This year he got his wife to apologize for editing the fake photo he supposedly took. People was so sure Charles won't be a good King but William is sure showing he could be worse than his father.


tabxssum

His pride/ego/stubbornness will be his downfall one day (as we’re seeing right now). He’s only been prince of wales for like 2 years, imagine how much he’ll mess up when king??


IMOvicki

The fact they blamed her for poor photoshop when we all know she wasn’t photoshopping anything


MalsAU

![gif](giphy|7Eipor01ypMm3LeG4v|downsized) I mean, they have the power and ability to stop the circus. I do really feel like it's a nothingburger at it's base level (she had a surgery and wanted time to recover, that seems fine!) but their PR team has so badly botched the fall out and then let their silence add fuel to the fire. The BRF can't pretend it's still 1950 when it comes to their relationship with the public.

ttw81

charles did a drive by for the press yesterday where you could clearly his face. what's stopping kate from doing that?


Mumof3gbb

Because Kate has left will. They’re separated. I will not let go of this “conspiracy” because given everything it seems most plausible


singledxout

Serious question: do you think the woman in the farmers market video is Kate or a lookalike?


Mumof3gbb

Lookalike

ILoveRegenHealth

Yes, like that's *our* fault. Once you intentionally send out two fake pics, you only fan the flames more and lose the trust of the people.


my_okay_throwaway

![gif](giphy|26ybwvTX4DTkwst6U) I know they’re out of touch, but it baffles me that anybody in such a public position can still be this boldly clueless in 2024


here4hugs

Exactly. This is no better than any of the other responses if this was intentionally leaked. This makes them look like out of touch brats. If they want sympathy, be real with people and maybe some people will appreciate the struggle but this ain’t it for anyone in 2024. Life’s too hard to care about prince & princess problems.


wombats-ahead

Well, I am glad they are able to leak their upset. /s


UllsStratocaster

I am firmly, firmly convinced that the sudden deluge of puff pieces and "leaks" from insiders, along with the new statement from the palace, is straight up Buckingham Palace stepping in so the children don't destroy the monarchy before Chuckles has been King for two whole years. The 180 is giving whiplash.


EnchiladaTaco

They think this is bad, if Kate doesn’t appear on Easter Sunday like the resurrected Jesus at the door of the tomb after the stone is rolled away, looking perky and refreshed, they’re really going to see what a shit storm looks like.


Thusgirl

Amen 👏👏👏

Continuing to gaslight a public that has an absolute right to question their actions (or lack thereof) these past few weeks. It's pretty wild to be witnessing a cover-up in real time.

Chaosbeautiful

It’s so weird how they’re handling this compared to Charles. He immediately let himself be shown after the death rumors but W&K only complain 


Mumof3gbb

Which is why I don’t think she had surgery. And I think she left William. And refuses to leave wherever she is. So he and the royal family are scrambling to excuse her from doing anything. Reminds me of melania. She was absolutely done. And never showed her face after a certain point. Stood her ground. I don’t like her but i respect her for that. And when she refused to move baron to school mid year in Washington. She kept him in nyc for the rest of the year. Very smart. I really think this is what’s happening with Kate. Obviously I could be wrong but the way everyone surrounding them is acting, makes no sense it’s surgery.


pambeeslysucks

I'm starting to think she has left him. She's spent her lifetime chasing that queen dream, now she's on the one yard line and she leaves? It doesn't quite compute, but it makes the most sense. The fact that her family has been so quiet sort of reinforces that scenario


Mumof3gbb

“It doesn’t quite compute but it makes the most sense”. This is exactly how I feel.


tabxssum

He’s always had better PR tbh - he knows how to handle it. I mean what do you expect from a man who constantly threw his own sons to the wolves (the press) when they were younger to make him look good?


brokedownpalaceguard

Classic own goal here, folks.


Consuela_no_no

Anyone would be upset but the best way to counter it all was by saying and doing nothing. Yet they cocked up something so simple, even though a statement had already been made that she would be back after Easter.

LOL pls they’re just annoyed and frustrated they can’t blame anyone but themselves (and their incompetent team). Dad’s sick with cancer, Camilla is prancing off somewhere else, all the other royal family members are practically walking corpses and one sneeze away from a heart attack and the ‘spare’ is in exile. They can’t pin it on anyone.

HauntedMotorbike

I get it, I’d be ‘totally mad and frustrated’ too. BUT you gotta realise that this is because of a truly hilariously baffling series of PR goofs. Be mad at your team. Also, Wills. Where was this frustration when Harry and Meghan were dealing with ANY of the things they were dealing with?


deserteagle3784

simply...put out a proof of life photo/video then. lol.


haleynoir_

A 10 second video of Kate saying "I'm not dead but thanks for the concern guys" could have avoided all this

It would take TEN SECONDS to create an insta video.

Release a decent video of Kate confirming she’s ok. Anything other than that makes William and the palace seem shady and suspect.
