Lady Rose Hanbury's Lawyer Reportedly Releases Statement on Prince William Rumors (Plus, a Full Explainer on the Allegations)

The Backstory About Why These Rumors Started Back Up Again

In recent weeks, speculation about the Princess’ whereabouts has been rampant.

If you don’t know, she has only been seen once since she underwent an abdominal surgery in January 2024. At the time of her surgery, the Palace said she would be unlikely to take part in any royal duties until at least Easter, which is on March 31 this year.

However, royalists and fans have been questioning why she hasn’t made any appearances. King Charles, who was diagnosed with cancer, has been seen by the public several times since his diagnosis, fueling further speculation about the Princess’ absence.

Conspiracy theories began emerging about what might be going on behind-the-scenes, despite the Palace saying the Princess would be out of the spotlight until after Easter.

Some theories were just jokes (including that the Princess received a bad haircut and went into hiding as a result), while some were way more serious. One rumor that took hold was the Lady Rose Hanbury gossip.

The first time these rumors began circulating the Internet was in 2019. Now, they’ve resurfaced again due to the Princess’ absence.
