LONDON, UK: According to reports, a tipster has claimed that Kate Middleton's condition “is worse than anyone knows,” as the Princess of Wales recovers from abdominal surgery.

Jack Royston supports people’s demand to see Kate Middleton

However, the UK Palace has not issued an official statement corroborating the claims made by the source. Royal commentator Jack Royston expressed that he empathizes with people's concerns for Kate.

He reportedly shared, “The public has a completely different perspective on the concept of medical privacy compared to the palace one. So, for the palace, respecting Kate's privacy means leaving her to her own devices and giving her as long as the doctors suggest she needs and that's the end of it.”

Royston further explained, “To the public, letting Kate have the time off was respecting her privacy. I think they do genuinely have some sympathy for the palace not wanting to go into too much detail about the specifics of her diagnosis.”

“But most ordinary people just see no reason why the royals wouldn't want to release a picture of her,” the commentator added.

Royston also mentioned the future King's visit to the Western Marble Arch Synagogue on February 29, during which he discussed Kate.

He continued, “So, this was a job highlighting the rise in antisemitism since the October 7 attack by Hamas in Israel and the Israeli war against Hamas in Gaza that followed, so Williams said 'both Catherine and I are extremely concerned about the rise of antisemitism.’"

“Now, to the public, there's just absolutely no logical reason why William can say how Kate feels about antisemitism, but can't say how she's been finding the past six weeks since surgery,” Royston added.

Meanwhile, Kate's uncle, Gary Goldsmith, discussed her on 'Celebrity Big Brother.'

The entrepreneur reportedly said, “She's getting the best care in the world and all the family has done is put the wagons around and looked after family first before anything else.”

He also added, “They put a statement out that just said: 'We will take some time to recoup and we'll see you in Easter.’”
