In September 2023, a YouGov survey found that Great Britain citizens favored Prince William over his wife, Kate Middleton, by a meager 2%. Alas, the recent turn of events threatens to derail his slim victory. Following the Mother’s Day kerfuffle, the hashtag #WilliamIsALiar has been circulating all over Twitter. But why exactly? Way back in 2019, In Touch Weekly sent shockwaves throughout the universe when they reported that Prince William was suspected of stepping out on Kate Middleton and having an affair with a woman by the name of Rose Hanbury. The kicker? Hanbury was a friend of Kate, and the alleged dalliance supposedly went on while Kate was pregnant with the couple’s third child, Prince Louis. “It’s not surprising the rumors about William and Rose finally leaked to the public — something as big as this can’t be kept a secret forever,” a source told the celebrity gossip magazine at the time.
Following the Mother’s Day photo debacle, some are now theorizing that it’s actually all part of a grander scheme to phase poor Kate out and usher Prince William’s rumored sidepiece, Hanbury, in. Even comedian Stephen Colbert has entered the group chat. “The kingdom has been all aflutter by the seeming disappearance of Kate Middleton. Well, now, internet sleuths are guessing that Kate’s absence may be related to her husband and the future King of England, William, having an affair,” he said on the March 12 episode of his famous late-night show.
