Still, on March 16, 2024, a clip went around social media of Catherine and Prince William, taken the same day. The short clip showed Catherine looking in good spirits while out and about with her husband at a business about a mile from their home in Windsor.

Catherine and William could be seen walking with all smiles as they left the Windsor Farm Shop with their shopping at hand. Witnesses observed her appearing "happy, relaxed, and healthy" as she leisurely walked through the store, resembling a supermarket, while the couple seemed utterly unbothered by the world around them.

In the video shared online, Catherine appeared at ease in casual athletic attire, sporting an all-black ensemble accented with pink trim. Her confident stride was notable, especially considering her abdominal surgery. William accompanied her closely as they exited the Farm Shop.

Nelson added, "I went to my car and as they came out of the shop I just filmed them. I think they walked out through a gate out of the grounds. They just vanished and I didn't see a car. I just wanted to share with my family footage and show just how normal they were."

Nelson concluded that Princess Catherine appeared happy and relaxed, mentioning that she and William seemed content simply being able to visit a shop and blend in. He noted that Catherine seemed relieved, as if successfully visiting a shop was a noteworthy achievement, and their actions felt natural to him.

The couple was observed moving at a brisk pace, with Catherine appearing to be in good health. It seemed as though there had never been anything amiss with her, despite the knowledge that she had been hospitalized for a while for a serious procedure that had temporarily sidelined her. Kensington Palace officials have never provided detailed information about the nature of her illness.

News outlets delved into the metadata of the video to verify its accuracy and learned that it was indeed taken on March 16, 2024. Some online users agreed that the person in the video was Catherine. "That's Kate, her body," commented a user. "She's Catherine Princess of Wales," another user agreed.

A person dismissed the comments of people claiming the individual in the video was a clone or double of Catherine, calling them conspiracy theorists. The person added, "That is Kate. She has lost quite a bit of weight after her illness/surgery - which is not unusual. Probably exactly why she wants some privacy."

Still, other people argued, "That's not Kate," with another individual concurring, "She is looking totally different that is how she is looking."

A user who agreed with these comments wrote that Catherine was still missing as the woman in the video wasn't her because "this woman is not manly enough to be Kate Middleton, her legs are are long while the missing woman has long body, short legs, and manly."

A person also vehemently asserted that the person was "100% not Kate." The person alleged that the images were shared by someone else and that the situation had escalated dramatically, as the palace had now enlisted somebody to impersonate the princess in an attempt to quell inquiries about her whereabouts.

"Kate Middleton has been missing for 3 months, and is still missing in my opinion. This video just makes me more concerned," the person concluded.

Blanca observed that the princess was walking slightly ahead of William during their market tour. She added that this pace could suggest she was in a particularly good mood or perhaps in a hurry. Conversely, it might imply that William was somewhat distracted, which could explain his comparatively slower pace.

Blanca added that Prince William was carrying a bag in his left hand, which could have prevented him from holding hands with his wife.

The body language expert also commented on the prince and princess's casual attire, "It's not customary to see the prince and princess out and about in casual clothing in a casual setting. This might explain why no one around them seems to notice their real identity because they blend in as everyday people."

Blanca mentioned that some individuals might not recognize Catherine, given her absence from the public eye following her surgery and her lack of royal attire typically seen at official events. The casual nature of the princess's appearance and the situation might be causing confusion among observers, as Catherine is seen outside the usual royal context.

Aside from Blanca's comments, Catherine's most realistic lookalike in Britain has denied being in Windsor Farm Shop on the day the princess was spotted. Heidi Agan divulged, "I was not there. It definitely wasn’t me and I do think it was 100 percent Kate and William in the video."

Heidi, who has made an income from impersonating the royal family for over a decade, is a professional lookalike and noted that on the said date, she was working her other job, where she is the head of a dance and acting school.

The Catherine conspiracy has gone deeper into analyzing the princess's body. People who argued that it wasn't Catherine in the video pointed out that she looked taller and slimmer. Past pictures of Catherine in a bikini have also resurfaced,

Now, the public is looking forward to seeing Catherine after Easter so that they can confirm that the princess is doing well. They hope to get clear pictures of the mom of three and put to bed the conspiracy theories doing rounds online.

As previously reported on January 26, 2024:

Why Kate Middleton Will Possibly Stay Out of Public Eye until ‘After Easter'

Her Royal Highness Kate Middleton recently made headlines after being hospitalized. The Royal Family has since given an update about when the senior royal member would resume her duties.

Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, was admitted to The London Clinic in Marylebone on January 16, 2024, the Royal Family recently revealed on their Instagram page.

The senior royal member is expected to remain in the hospital for "ten to fourteen days before returning home to continue her recovery," they wrote, adding:

"Based on the current medical advice, she is unlikely to return to public duties until after Easter."

Middleton, whose condition is reportedly "not cancerous," hopes to maintain normalcy during these times for the sake of her children and wishes that her personal medical information be kept private.

As such, Kensington Palace will only share updates on the royal's progress when there is important information to be shared with the general public.

On behalf of the Princess of Wales, Kensington Palace issued an apology "to all those concerned for the fact that she has to postpone her upcoming engagements."

Middleton, who previously revealed that she had "very bad morning sickness" during her first pregnancy, is said to look forward to continuing with many more public engagements much sooner.

The Royal Family's Instagram followers commented on the post, sending their well wishes to Middleton while adding that they are keeping her in their prayers.

"Sending love and prayers to the Princess of Wales. Hoping for a speedy recovery," wrote one person. Another echoed, "Our prayers are for the Princess of Wales to heal quickly and suffer little very pain[sic]."

"Praying for a speedy recovery," someone else penned. While one other follower commented, "God bless you, Princess Catherine, we love you. Feel better soon." "Thinking of Her Royal Highness Princess of Wales today. Sending prayers and hugs and healing vibes for your family," said another.

A medical expert, Dr. Zoe Williams, has reportedly commented on the Princess of Wales' medical condition. "This might be something that has been bothering her for her whole life, which she has not got round to resolving or an issue that has come to light more recently," she said. Williams further noted that Middleton's two-week stay at the hospital is a much longer period than one would expect.

Another expert, Dr. Deborah Lee, weighed in on the royal's stay in the hospital. According to her, most patients who undergo surgery for abdominal surgery only stay at the hospital for four to seven days, which can be reduced to two to four days following a keyhole procedure known as laparoscopic surgery.

Lee explained it all depends on what type of procedure is performed and that it could take two months or more for the patient to be comfortable again and be physically active.

Meanwhile, the royal's longtime husband, Prince William, will also step away from his royal duties and postpone his trips to be by her side during the princess's recovery and spend time with their children.

The royal couple shares three kids: Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, who recently returned to school after a holiday break. Middleton previously expressed that she wanted to take time off her royal duties in order to spend more time with her kids during school closures.

The mother of three and the heir to the British throne are known for their hands-on approach when parenting their children. They both have active roles in caring for their sons and their only daughter.

That said, it would reportedly not be much of a hassle for the Prince to juggle parenthood with his official duties because he typically does that often. Fatherhood for Prince William is of the utmost importance.

He reportedly has what he considers one paramount duty: training his eldest child, Prince George, who is set to take the reins one day as the King of England, being second in the line of succession.

An insider claimed that the father of three and his wife are considered normal parents who actively participate in events at their children's schools. They reportedly never miss an occasion at Lambrook School in Berkshire, where their kids are enrolled.

The pair participate in all important activities at their kids' school, and it has been public knowledge that the Princess of Wales does the school run daily.

A source claimed Middleton, who recently turned 42, and Prince William, 41, low-key slip into school events, including carol concerts, and are always present, ensuring their schedules can accommodate special occasions.

"The day after Kate's carol service [at Westminster Abbey], it was the school Christmas fair, and they were all there, as they were the previous year. I saw them queueing up for tombola tickets like everyone else. They really act like a normal mum and dad," the source revealed.

Now that Middleton's recent hospitalization has put things on a halt regarding work, two upcoming international trips have reportedly been removed from the family's schedule already.

The Prince and Princess of Wales had reportedly planned on visiting Rome later in the year but have had to cancel their tours. Their Rome trip was announced in December 2023. It was supposed to mark their first trip overseas on behalf of the Government as the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Middleton and Prince William's last public appearance together with their kids was on the Royal Family's traditional Christmas Day church outing on December 25, 2023.

The royal couple had a full year in 2023 with their numerous appearances. In December 2023, they shared a clip showing them at their public engagements throughout the year and captioned it, "Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our year."

In addition to the news of the Princess of Wales' medical condition being made public, Buckingham Palace also announced that another senior member of the Royal Family, King Charles III, would undergo surgery.

The family patriarch is set to go to the hospital next week to receive treatment for an enlarged prostate. Although King Charles' condition is reportedly benign, he will undergo a "corrective procedure."

Much like the Prince and Princess of Wales, the palace revealed that His Royal Highness' public engagements will also be postponed for a short while until he recovers. The news of King Charles' upcoming operation came shortly after news of his daughter-in-law was made public – which is reportedly uncommon for medical updates about two senior royals to be released on the same day.

Advertisement

However, this was an exception, seeing that the 75-year-old had to cancel his engagements for January 18, 2024. He was set to meet foreign dignitaries and cabinet members in Scotland.

Advertisement

Notably, the health updates of two senior royals are rarely disclosed to the public, so it was of great significance that there were two updates on two different figures from the Royal Family released on the same day. Buckingham Palace seldom shares updates on health issues affecting the family members and often reveals limited information once it does disclose public updates.

Advertisement

Most importantly, King Charles willingly shared details of his medical condition to encourage other men who may be experiencing symptoms to go for checkups. Benign prostate enlargement is considered non-cancerous and is reportedly common in men over 50.

While it is regarded as harmless, it can cause symptoms and problems such as having trouble passing urine or emptying the bladder. Still, it does not necessarily mean the patient has a high chance of developing prostate cancer. There are reportedly several ways to deal with the condition, which include surgery, steam treatment, and lasers.
