Experts Claim There are No Photos of Kate Middleton’s Recent Outing Due to These Surprising People Being ‘Protective of Her’

Fans and followers of the royal family have been eagerly awaiting any sign of Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, ever since her cancer diagnosis in March.

And while there have been rumors of her return to royal duties, Middleton has stepped back from public appearances to focus on her health.

Still, like any other human being grappling with their health, Middleton has been spotted out and about — but don’t expect to see any photos, digitally altered by the princess herself or otherwise — of Middleton out and about, even if it does end up being in an official royal capacity.

Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield recently shared that “King Charles and Prince William have repeatedly stressed to the Princess of Wales that she should feel no pressure to return to public duty until she is ready,” highlighting the royal family’s commitment to Kate’s well-being over public demands.

But it’s not just the royal family who is in Middleton’s corner. Even though Middleton has been spotted around town, no photographs have surfaced. Schofield explains why: “Neighbors and her children’s schoolmates’ families have been protective of her and do what they can to ensure that she is protected from prying eyes.” It seems that the community around her is playing a crucial role in maintaining her privacy — a difficult feat when everyone is clamoring for an update on Middleton’s health.
