Prince William abandoned Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton?

Once again the men of British royalty remained silent in the face of some conflict or 'scandal', letting the entire weight of the 'crown' fall on those who could least defend themselves at that moment: Kate Middletonwho is recovering from possibly serious health problems.

And because of this, royal columnist Daniela Elser, from the Australian daily “News”, assures in all words that “Prince William abandoned Kate Middleton”, when he should have supported her amid the drama of the photo allegedly edited by the Princess of Welsh.

However, she was the only one to come forward, in an unprecedented apology, making it clear that she was solely responsible for what happened.

The subject of the photo was so serious that five of the largest photographic agencies in the world removed the image and refused to publish it. This week, AFP (Agence France-Presse) declared that Kensington Palace is no longer considered a reliable source, after what they did.

The columnist claims that Kensington “placed Kate on a shelf for everyone to throw rotten fruit at her, while the men of the royal family closely inspect her nails in another room.”

“Now we know exactly how things happened,” says Elser.

She reports: “The photo of the princess, along with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, was taken last Friday afternoon (8), after the children in Wales returned from school,” she states the columnist.

“The family had a 40-minute window to obtain the image, which was taken by none other than Prince William, Flat Cap Wearer magazine's man of the year,” he quips.

“Later that night, at 9:54pm UK time, someone, probably Kate, edited the photo before adjusting it again the following morning at 9:39am,” he explains, adding that the day after the image was published, she did not passed the professional assessment.

The woman argues that all this drama has only added to the hysteria that has taken over social media about Kate and her supposedly mysterious whereabouts.

Where Was William?

“What do you notice in all this? Of the cringe-worthy events of the past week, which, or more precisely, who, is curiously absent? Answer: Men. Our first absentee is William”, he accuses.

Kate Middleton 'is fine, but not 100%', says royal author

“It was the prince who actually took the photo that started this whole ordeal, although I think we can assume that it was Kate, a long-time photographer and patron of the Royal Photographic Society, who may have composed and arranged the image. When the princess's apology arrived this week, there was a nice big 'C' at the end, marking the missive as personal from Kate – and Kate alone. Where the hell was her supposed faithful partner?” she complains.

She continues: “Even though it was Kate who woke up at almost 10pm on a Friday to tinker with a Mac, inadvertently proving that she is not perfect in every possible way, the image was circulated by her shared social media accounts. ”

“It infuriates me deeply that when the Welsh's joint project – the photo – landed them in murky, turbulent waters, suddenly the prince was no longer in sight and it was Kate bravely taking on the rap solo,” he points out.

“For God’s sake, they could have just put a “we” in that apology and a “W” at the end, as we’ve seen countless times before, to form a nice united front.”

The royal columnist concludes by recalling the health crisis that Kate herself faces amid all this controversy:

“Also, do I need to remind anyone that all of this is happening while Kate is recovering from a surgery major enough to require months of sick leave?”
