‘Give the woman a break’: Princess Kate ‘hysteria’ is ‘ridiculous’

"Menzies Research Centre’s Freya Leach says the “hysteria” over Princess Kate is “ridiculous” as conspiracy theories continue to spread over her whereabouts.

Speculation has been mounting online over Princess Kate’s whereabouts and her health, which intensified following a scandal involving an edited photo from Kensington Palace.

Princess Kate has been caught in controversy over a Mother’s Day image of her and her children.

News agencies pulled the image, and a kill notice was issued for the photo over concerns it may have been “manipulated”.

This forced the Princess of Wales to release a statement on social media on the incident and has apologised for any confusion for the edits made to the photo.

“Give the woman a break – the pressure the royals are under 24/7 must be immense, and I really feel for her,” Ms Leach told Sky News Australia."
