He didn't even have to take a sip. Hold it up to his lips, pretend to swallow, and nobody would ever know the difference. Or just take the cup and hold it in his hand for 1/2 hour, like someone at a cocktail party who's handed a cocktail they don't want to drink. We all know how to do these things. It's just so weird. |
That's exactly why they shouldn't share details. If they said she had a certain type of cancer, then people would be digging up reasons why she is lying because she couldn't possibly have that. We already saw this when people said preventive chemo is impossible. |
I'm sure not royal and I wouldn't eat or drink anything I didn't want to, either. |
Are you serious? She had no weight to drop. And she definitely thinned out a lot more when they got married. She wasn’t ever big to begin with! |
Nobody's asking him to drink it. They're saying he could have pretended. Say "thank you" and hold the cup for a few minutes. This isn't hard. |
Yes I am married. And no my dh would not pretend to drink something to make me happy. That would be weird. I mean I guess for the sake of the coffee stand he could have taken it to be polite but I don't see that as an issue between her and him. |
Charles said "I have cancer" from the start, and his office kept everyone updated on his treatment that went on for two years and is merely scaled back now. Nobody is digging around to find out what cancer he has, because they are convinced he's being straight about having cancer, end of. The real problem, actually, is that she keeps making cancer her persona, so people like this chat keep digging into it. So many things about her are explained in terms of cancer--why she needed to move to a huge new mansion last fall, her working less than the 91-year-old Duke of Kent who lost his wife last year. Just simply stop making vague allusions to your "diagnosis" several years after the fact, like when she mentioned her vague "diagnosis" at a brewpub yesterday, sparking this very discussion. (If you don't want to drink, for understandable reasons, then don't go to a brewpub and basically call their beer poison. It really is that simple.) Because making cancer your persona inevitably invites people to reopen all the questions. |
She has been the same extremely small size for years before she had cancer |
And your husband wouldn't know that you take decaf or prefer tea, either? Poor you. |
Charles is the monarch. Kate is not the monarch. |
I don’t know if this interaction proves anything about what she knows or doesn’t know. It was a little goofy thing. |
Neither is Camilla and yet she still manages to do more. Aren’t they supposed to be supporting the king like he did for his mom? |
Huh? If anything, people would have more concern about the monarch's health than about hers. Yet the actual monarch, who is still undergoing cancer treatment two years on, worked 535 engagements last year compared to her 68 a year after her treatment ended. https://people.com/king-charles-hardest-working-royal-2025-despite-cancer-treatment-11875495 Please explain. |
PS, please don't let the explanation involve "she's a mother" because all three of her kids are now in school full-time. |
In school full time plus they have a nanny and household staff for cooking and cleaning. |
