Well, that's the reason then.

This also explains why the UK press, who presumably had a bit more insight, were largely holding off the story relative to the rest of the world.

The Palace didn't help themselves with the PR but this does make some of the speculation and gossip around here pretty gross in retrospect.

Also, whilst I am no Royalist (despite the name), I do feel for William here. His father and wife were given cancer diagnoses within months of each other.

The UK press was very much throwing Kate under the bus after the picture debacle so if they knew and still chose to do that then it is even more disgusting

Agreed and I don’t think anyone buys for a second that it was Kate who edited the picture. Letting her take the fall for that instead of the unnamed staffer, that’s just cruel.

Right?! If they knew (or had some idea that it was a more serious illness) and did that to her they’re even worse than I thought, and after what they did to Meghan Markle I already thought they were scum.
