Kate Middleton is one of the most sought-after women of the moment. Since the Princess of Wales underwent a planned abdominal operation on January 16, she has not been seen again, and it has become something of an international mission to find her whereabouts.

There has been much speculation about the state of Kate Middleton’s health, and despite the “proof” in the form of a video released a few days ago, the conspiracy theories do not cease. Something that is already beginning to tire Prince William, who would be “overwhelmed” with the constant barrage of news surrounding both his wife and his marriage.

According to the British newspaper The Sun, the crown prince is “shocked” by all the unfair and even cruel speculation that is being made about how the princess is doing or her alleged extramarital relationship with Lady Rose Cholmondeley.

The eldest son of Carlos III, who has had to assume a greater number of institutional functions as a result of the pause he has had to take as a result of his father’s retirement after announcing his cancer diagnosis, feels that he has “the weight of the world on their shoulders.”

Journalist Rebecca English writes in the aforementioned newspaper that the rumors and speculation have her “overwhelmed.” “I know he is angry, frustrated and, yes, deeply disappointed by what has happened in recent weeks. ‘When will all this end?’ he is reported to have asked.”

According to the journalist, the prince would only be trying to protect his family from the type of intrusion into privacy that his mother, Diana, suffered. When the previous Princess of Wales died, William was only 15 years old and had to face a complicated situation, marked precisely by media harassment and the crazed fans of his mother.

The prince also began to take his mother’s place in terms of popularity, becoming a target of the press. Shy as he was, he felt very uncomfortable with all that attention.

All that public pressure to which he was subjected made him grow up afraid that his family would suffer the same.

More than two decades have passed since that time, but, fearful that the situation will repeat itself, it now has two new added problems: social networks and the reach of foreign media. Above all, on the part of American television, subject to other levels of containment.

Their concern has also multiplied since it was leaked that three employees of the clinic where the princess underwent abdominal surgery had tried to access her medical record.
