The gossip mill keeps turning: Why havenβt Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis visited their mother? After news of Kateβs health became public, Prince William, who had taken a step back from royal duties to focus on his role as a full-time dad, was spotted discreetly leaving the clinic in his $268,000 electric Audi.
Since then, heβs been making daily visits to see Kate, as confirmed by reports inΒ The SunΒ andΒ The Daily Mail. Rebecca English fromΒ The Daily MailΒ explained that the media agreed to respect Kateβs privacy by avoiding photographers, cameras, or journalists outside the hospital. This ensures Kate can recover peacefully while also respecting the privacy of other patients.
This arrangement would make it easy for William or even the Middletons to quietly bring George, Charlotte, and Louis to see their mom without drawing attention. So, why havenβt the children been to the hospital yet?
According toΒ The Sun, the couple wants Kateβs absence to feel as normal as possible for their kids during the weekdays, which seems reasonable. But what about the weekend? Their family home, Adelaide Cottage, is just a 45-minute drive from the hospital, so distance isnβt really a factor.
A royal aide toldΒ The Sunday TimesΒ that William and Kateβs new mantra during this challenging time is βfamily first, work second.β This approach raises questionsβhow does leaving the children at home align with this philosophy?
Rebecca English suggested inΒ The MailΒ that hospital visits among royals are rare. But does that argument hold up? Recent examples suggest otherwise. When King Charles arrived at the London Clinic, he went directly to see Kate, and Queen Camilla managed to visit her husband three times in a single day.
It seems the notion of royals avoiding hospital visits is a bit outdated. Maybe Camilla should grab some crystals, sage, and a shaman to cleanse any lingering bad vibes at Buckingham Palace. After all, it wouldnβt hurt to clear the air!
