Twitter is also speculating it could be cover for a mental health treatment and everything the palace is saying is hooey. Also KC announcing his procedure to deflect.

Did something happen in December to Kate? Perhaps a hernia that re-ruptured? I feel like all the cover up just invites more speculation. The kidney transplant thing seems probable given the hospital time. I had a friend that got a kidney transplant in middle school and was probably hospitalized a week or 2. Or maybe liver? The timing is probably all made up though because she's royalty getting special treatment. She did a lot of HG care at home though For sure Chuck's prostate is deflection

I think Kate has some eating issues, as did Diana, and I would personally guess this is related.
I also go to addiction, which I certainly hope is not the case.

14 days in the hospital for someone who is young and otherwise healthy is…. A lot. A lot a lot.
IME even elderly people having heart surgery are usually home sooner. So if we believe no cancer… My thought then went to the need for extended IV antibiotics or TPN (artificial nutrition) but even for “normal people” that can be arranged for outpatient or home infusion.
It could have been a planned surgery but with complications. Transplant is another consideration, but it’s too short for bone marrow transplant (I think… def not an expert on that)
I fully believe “the divorce” was code for whatever was really going on and of course Chuck’s prostate is deflection because why the heck would he ever be so open to tell the world about his plumbing problems?!
All that to say: it’s nothing routine and I could buy it being related to mental health.

*smip I fully believe “the divorce” was code for whatever was really going on and of course Chuck’s prostate is deflection because why the heck would he ever be so open to tell the world about his plumbing problems?! For awareness for other men to get screened. Not that that isn't important, but my eye roll...

I was in the hospital for 8 days after an organ transplant and that was with complications of rejection. Usually only planned organ transplants are kidney since others rely on the donor dying.

I think Americans are so use to being sent home after major-ish surgeries that a 14 hospital stay seems like omg are y’all dying? Everytime I see healthcare in other countries I cry. Now add rich people health care in other countries. 😂
I don’t know why I thought some type of plastic surgery where you have to be out of the public so no one knows you got stuff done.

They rush you out in the UK too. I could see plastic surgery. I was told I could go home like 3 hours after I gave birth in the UK. They don't have space to keep people for a long time and definitely rush you out. Saying that, it is a private hospital, so not the NHS and they are paying for it, so they really don't have a need to rush her out. Also, everyone is fixating on 14 days but they said 10-14 and maybe it will be less and they are giving worse case scenario?

The royals refuse to show weakness publicly. Maybe it is just something rather routine and boring, but the future queen needs to come out in tip top shape, so they will let her stay until she walks out looking as put together as before.

I got "lucky" and had a bowel obstruction surgery AND a hysterectomy in 2022. I was there less than 72 hours for the first and slightly over 24 for the second. That was with complications for both.
She has young kids so I hope it's just them paying for her to get the rest and care she needs.

I think the most likely story is plastic surgery. She’s got a history with fillers, Botox, etc. She’s so public that any visible areas (like a face) would be super noticeable for quite a while.

I also wondered plastic surgery. Maybe she's getting tubes tied or something and doing other things while she's under crossed my mind. I could see face stuff too.
But I wasn't sure if they'd call attention to something like that? But I guess when it comes to appearances it might be inevitable

Some random prince in Albania announced his divorce today. That would be super boring if that was the one hinted at.

More time in the hospital = more potential for leaks/privacy issues so I do think they’d try and minimize that as much as possible. All I can think of is the poor nurse who killed herself after falling for the prank while Kate was hospitalized with HG.

I hate the speculation about her having an ED, but my first thought was that as well. Anyway, if it's something involving tubes or drains, I'd rather stay in a private hospital room to recover too.

I did think it was odd that her birthday passed with absolutely nothing from their socials.

I assumed immediately tummy tuck. 3 kids, recovery is about 2 weeks. Yes, everyone else goes home immediately. But I would assume if you’re royalty keeping it quiet, you’re going to stay in a hospital suite and you and your drains will only be seen by your team.

Whatever is going on, her first public appearance will be more photographed than ever and she will be more scrutinized than ever.

Would plastic surgery take place in a regular hospital? Like they have staff for everything...it's not like she needs to run out to get milk. If it was plastic surgery I would think they would have planned the break and not really announced anything.
