Negotiate what? They have been together for decades, work well as a team, have three children. She will be queen in a hot moment given Charles's health problems. What's there to negotiate, she is not getting divorced.

Exactly. She dy what she's told. I think some posters are living in a fantasy world

Those people gave examples of this happening with royal couples in the past. And some speculate it’s about the kids schooling. It could be anything but it’s the one way she has any control over anything in her life. It’s not a crazy theory.

Catherine has shown time and again she's not going to ruffle the RF.

The kids will go to school where ere the form approved of.

This is not the same as you and your gal pals marriages or divorces.

You're right its not the same! That's why she's doing things like disappearing! Her fights with W and Charles about the kids schooling have been widely reported on. And exerting her power via a medical procedure that does not openly criticize the firm but clearly illustrates her power seems very on brand! You're right she's never going to come out and talk crap about them!

In contrast, Charles is undergoing treatment for cancer and has been pictured numerous times in video addresses, recordings of him reading cards from well wishers, pictured leaving his residence in seemingly real photos, and just today was pictured at a very real royal event meeting veterans.

Kate is the BRFs best asset, apart from her and William’s kids. Trust me they’d be using her strategically during the kings illness if they could. And she’s been visible during previous illnesses and maternity leaves.

TLDR is that Kate has been MIA since Christmas and palace continues to release grainy, confusing pictures that churn the conspiracy theories. the question is “why?”

QAnon for Wine Moms
Kate Middleton needed privacy. The public had other ideas.

That is so accurate lol

People trying to figure out why someone was deceitful with suggestions like “divorce” or “facelift” is not at all like people deciding that tens of thousands of people eat babies, want to poison a nation with a vaccine, and have conspired to take control of the world. How dumb.

Posters spending literally all day, every day posting theories like she’s actually dead, she’s in a coma, she has a body double, Charles is dead, etc. are definitely the same brand of batshit as Qanon.

No, they are not. Qanon posters conspiracy theories are accusations of misdoings that are contrary to what’s in plain sight. The Kategate issue is that Kate has NOT been seen in months, yet the palace continues to fuel speculation by releasing fake, doctored, old, and or grainy photos of her.

Because she isn't camera ready after plastic surgery. This is such a no brainer.

She's refusing to get her picture taken.

With regards to the farm market video, I think there are two possibilities:
1. It is not Kate (I think this is most likely)
2. It is Kate without makeup, she has lost a lot of weight due to whatever condition she has and her face is very skinny. When a woman looks "too" skinny they can get a lot of hate. I would understand if she doesn't feel obligated to deal with that BS.

Why, indeed, is this situation even worthy of conspiracy theories?

The video at the Farmer's Market really argues against this IMO.

How? It's grainy and not clear. Can you not connect two closely spaced dots?

I agree I don't think they are getting divorced! There is plenty to negotiate, issues with the kids, parenting, how many events she has to go to, how William comports himself. Right before being queen when she is most valuable is the ideal time to ensure she can get some things she wants.

I like Kate but to act as if their entire lives are not some form of business negotiations is just ignorant of reality. It's a hornets nest!

She is the most powerful member of the RF and a key decision maker. Her husband has been deferring to her when it comes to raising the children and managing their private life since they met. You can't negotiate your way to love or affection, he will keep having affairs if that's the issue. Creating an extended public drama is completely out of character for this woman. The only reason to negotiate is a credible fear of divorce.

I guess some posters didn't get the message regarding the purpose of this thread.
