Kate Middleton 'body double' truth revealed by expert

Kate Middleton a rumoured to have a body double, hired to fill in during her cancer diagnosis.

The Princess of Wales, who announced her battle with cancer back in 2024, was seen missing from public eye during the first few months. It was later believed that Kate hired a body double to take her place.

“On various social media channels, it was alleged that paparazzi photos of Kate with William were of a body double. What happened with this story reflects a very modern trend for people on social media with no knowledge of the royal family, or expertise in photography, setting themselves up as experts,” book author Tony McMahon says.

He tells Reader’s Digest: “Some of this activity may have been malicious, but it was mostly the kind of attention-seeking that has become endemic among social media influencers.”

This comes as stylist Sam McKnight praised Kate for her confidence.

She added: "A woman's hair is very personal to her. It's armor, defence, confidence and so much more."

The professional continued: "I cannot believe how evil and lacking in any kind of empathy are the comments, the majority made apparently by other women, attacking a vulnerable other young woman, who has no choice, by dint of who she married and the role she took on, to bravely face the public.”
