Meghan Markle may have been right to exit the Royal Family, UK tabloids say
The UK's top publication, Mirror, drew parallels between Meghan's dramatic exit from the royal family and Kate's ongoing controversies. Both Prince William and Kate Middleton have become a viral topic of discussion. Speculations about Kate's health are in the talks among netizens worldwide as the Palace fails to provide more details about the nature of her ailment or her recovery.
“Meghan Markle must be delighted to have dodged a bullet.”
Mirror opinion column stated, “Now, as the UK goes full Katespiracy over THAT doctored Mother’s Day photo, Meghan must feel even more vindicated. Yes, the image that prompted four of the world’s biggest photo agencies to recall it raises more questions than answers. But the pressure on Kensington Palace to provide more detail on Kate must leave even the Princess wishing she’d taken the Meghan route to preserving her sanity.”
When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle quit their royal duties, they were faced with severe criticism. Over the last few years, the duo have continuously been slammed with brutal remarks. But now, with the palace remaining tight-lipped over Kate's health and mysterious hospitalisation, it appears that the tables have turned. Every day, the question of King Charles' health and Kate Middleton's whereabouts loom over the Royal Family.
“With her wealth and the TV career she’d had before she ever met Harry, Meghan is blessed enough not to need to go back. She is a poster girl for empowerment in the face of relentless intimidation and unwarranted attacks.”
Conspiracy theories about Kate's whereabouts emerge on social media
As the Mother's Day photo failed to satisfy netizens about Kate's whereabouts, social media is drowning in conspiracy theories. Many suggest that the picture was not posted by Kate on Instagram, while others claim that she is falling apart due to Prince William's alleged affair. Amid all the drama, netizens wonder where the future Queen of England is.
One concerned X, formerly Twitter user wrote, “They are continually lying to the public over what’s gone on with Kate & trying to deceive people with false photos. As a taxpayer I find this really concerning.” Another said, “Baloney! Kate is not an amateur photographer. William probably is or one of his buddies. That’s why he took ownership of the photo until everything hit the fan.”
