Birth family is an odd distinction to make . Camilla is by Charles side during his battle with cancer. Where is William?

His excuse this time for not working is the care of the three kids even though no convoys from Kensington Palace were ever spotted driving in the last few months to the kids’ school and/or activities. He’s living alone there

Yes, exactly. If William is not with his sick father or sick wife, but is taking time off… What the hell is he doing?

He’s at FA Cup with his heir.

This picture reminds me of Kim Jung Un at a North Korean rally.

Its awkward all these people centering themselves in what is supposedly going on with Kate. Your experience as an American commoner is NOTHING like Kate's. Their world is smoke and mirrors, very hands off parenting except for photo ops, training the heir apparent, and preserving the monarchy. Not about spending quality time with family.

Her parents were more middle class before their Party Pieces business took off. Her childhood home was pretty small compared to the best of DCUM.

One of the reasons the royals are marrying commoners is because they are more emotionally normal/have warmer family relations with at least some family members and often are very good at parenting because they were raised by hands-on parents. E.g., Diana and her siblings (her parents had some issues), Meghan and Doria, the whole Middleton family seems pretty tight, Prince Edward's wife Sophie, Queen Mary of Denmark (the Aussie).

Most European homes are comparatively small.

In her video announcing her diagnosis she looked completely fine and supposedly had already started chemo. But now she’s bald and physically decimated behind the scenes? I agree she doesn’t owe the public an appearance but I do think she does owe them silence rather than misinformation i

I didn’t think she looked completely fine in the video. She looked very thin and like she had lost weight.

If you all think that video was legit/filmed in that time period you're nuts.

That vid has been confirmed as altered at least. The world just backed off
commenting because of the subject and subject matter.

You’re talking about the video filmed by the BBC? Who confirmed it was altered exactly?

Grim at best.

Yep. We also stopped discussing the farmstand video where she was galloping around looking 15 years younger and like she was having the best day of her life. What even was that?

BBC explicitly did not confirm video and made sure to have on record it came from a third party.

I support Kate’s retreat, staying with her parents, not wanting to be seen publicly - all of it.

However she has such a world wide platform to encourage people to get screened or not ignore a health nuisance that may be more serious.
It’s powerful when a young, healthy famous person shares that they are battling x-type of cancer (or any illness or mental health challenge)
Of course she can opt out of sharing her health business with the world.
But she’s in a unique position to actually save lives by sharing how she she discovered her cancer and what type of screening might catch it early.

She likely needs help with the kids, and it makes sense the grandparents would help.

She has a nanny.

Or three
