A censored photo of Kate and her delayed return to public life reveal an “old and troubled” British royal.

A paparazzo who violated the codes between the journalistic “Rota” (the agreement) of Buckingham Palace and the photographers, and the rush of the British Ministry of Defense to announce its next public presence They showed the first photo of Catherine, the Princess of Wales after her mysterious abdominal operation and revealed that her first official activity will not be until June. At the ceremony Gathering the colors, when the king’s official birthday is celebrated in Britain. The real day is another.

Princess Kate was finally seen. The image was censored in Great Britain. No newspaper or television published it on Monday and Tuesday, the paparazzi managed to sell it in the United States.

The Ministry of Defense was quick to announce the presence of the Princess of Wales. Buckingham Palace even now, does not officially confirm it. She wants to give the princess time to recover in complete tranquility. It is not certain that she will be present at such a ceremony. We don’t even know when it will appear.

communicative drama

The action demonstrates how “The Kate Affair” is a public relations and communications drama for a House of Windsor with too many victims. King Charles suffering from cancer, the future Queen and Princess of Wales with an unspecified “abdominal operation”, which social media conspiracy theories define as Crohn’s syndrome and colon cancer.

A Queen Camilla, who had to take her holidays, exhausted, because he alone cannot fulfill all royal obligations. Two princes in ostracism– Andrew and Harry – offer their services, which the courtiers despise. Fergie, the Duchess of York, with breast cancer and melanoma. Lady Gabriela Windsor’s husband he decided to commit suicide in the middle of all this Shakespearean drama.

The first photo

For the first time since undergoing abdominal surgery in January, the Princess of Wales was seen in public on Monday. She is seen as a passenger in a black Audi, a vehicle driven by her mother, Carole Middleton, near Windsor Castle.

Kate He is wearing a black coat and dark round sunglasses. She also has a serious expression, like her mother, who also wears a dark coat.

Princess Kate’s last public appearance was at Christmas, at the Sandringham ceremony. She was admitted to the London Clinic in mid-January for “planned abdominal surgery”. The palace So far he has refrained from specifying the reason for the operation.

She said at the time that Kate’s commitments had been “postponed” and that she would not return to work until “after Easter”, which this year falls on March 31. They added that Kate “hopes the public understands her desire to maintain as much normality as possible for her children; and your desire to have your medical information

the staff remains private. Kensington Palace will therefore only provide updates on HRH’s progress. when there is significant new information share”.

For several weeks, there was radio silence from the palace and the rest of the royals regarding Kate’s condition. But after speculation emerged online about the princess’s whereabouts, the palace said in a statement: “We were very clear from the outset that the Princess of Wales would be absent until after Easter and that Kensington Palace would only provide updates when something was significant.”

At the time, the mother of three apologized for postponing her royal engagements following the surgery, which courtiers said was not cancer-related.

Public service and mistakes

Online rumors about Kate’s health were fueled when Prince William unexpectedly pulled out of a memorial service last week for King Constantine, her godfather, where he was due to give a reading. He argued “a personal matter”, which he did not clarify. There were only 45 minutes left until the ceremony.

The mistake of the Royal Family was the management of the Palace’s communications, his obsession with a privacy that few tolerate. The mystery was maintained by Isabella II. In the 21st century, the British monarchy is like a Brazilian soap opera.

The king admitted his cancer but He couldn’t tell which one it was.. He was much more open than William and Kate, who decided to preserve their privacy over the general interest when supported by British taxpayers.

“The monarchy risks falling into public indifference if its privileges seem to outweigh its services,” admitted Adam Bulton, a Sky News commentator and veteran British political analyst.

It was only when one royal after another began to fall ill that the feared decline in popularity following Queen Elizabeth’s death did not materialize.

Constitutional monarchy remains the government’s preferred option, with just under 50% support.

The privacy dilemma

The problem the royal family faces today regarding their privacy is this They are public figureswho will play a role from their birth towards British subjects and maintained by the British people and their taxes.

For the trauma of the persecution of his mother, Princess Diana and her death in the Soul TunnelWilliam has an aversion to the press and transferred him to his closest family. Don’t give any explanations for not participating

the commemoration of the death of her godfather, King Constantine of Greece, increased rumors and speculation about his wife’s health and, at the same time, the demand for reasons. He is a public figure. He so far refuses.

The service was both an intimate family event for those of royal blood and a high-profile public function. The media produced diagrams of who was present.

They highlighted the importance of the disgraced Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah, Duchess of York. They stood out considerable ages of the “true working members” present. Queen Camilla, 76; the Princess Royal, 73; the Duke of Kent, 88; The Duke of Gloucester, 79 years old. Eighty-year-olds or disinherited were representatives of the House of Windsor. The “streamlined” monarchy dreamed of by King Charles came to fruition, with no replacement in sight. Today the Royals must be more and They no longer have acceptable or healthy members.

The remains of the royal family

Richard Kay, royal watcher for the Daily Mail, said: “Looking at the remains of our first family displayed in Windsor this week, it was impossible to escape the conclusion that they have suddenly become a worn-out institution“.

He went on to argue that the stability of the royal family “appears to be in jeopardy”.

“Never in modern memory have the royals had so many problems at the same time,” he said.

Currently, senior royals are uncomfortably unconvinced about what they are willing to say to the public. They recognize the need for greater informality. Especially because support for the monarchy is lower among young people.

The most convinced realists are older voters, women and conservatives. However, largely due to the trauma of losing his mother, William and Harry “hate the press”, according to their friends, and they jealously protect their family’s privacy, in their own way. But for how long?

Harry regent?

If Charles III’s unspecified cancer progresses and he abdicates or dies, William will be the future king. The problem comes in his successor. Since his son George is very young, the only adult is Prince Harry, fifth in line of succession and also the king’s son. Harry will be George’s regent.

Both brothers hate each other and Harry lives in California, self-exiled and critical of royal relatives. The courtiers will do anything to prevent him from returning as they did with Harry’s offer to return temporarily to help his father while he is ill.

Will this bloc be viable when the monarchy is rejected by the young and supported by the elderly? Who will save the House of Windsor?
