WHAT exactly is going on with Kate Middleton (Goldsmith)?

Well, you won’t find the answer here but, more relevantly and importantly, you are not finding out the answer from Buckingham Palace.

This week’s events have only deepened the mystery and the speculation and I can only conclude that that is the idea.

Whatever you think about the Royals and the huge machine that constantly shapes their public image, they are not stupid.

Evil, manipulative maybe, but certainly not stupid.

The narrative that Kate carelessly went in for a bit of photoshopping and the image then got released to the public is obvious nonsense.

As I say, their image is scripted to the nth degree and that doesn’t include the Royal puppets themselves putting out their own social media. Their role is to perform the script, not to write it.

So if the photoshopped image of Kate supposedly on Mother’s Day to show she is fit and well wasn’t intended to deepen speculation of what is really happening to her – that’s been the same anyway.

For many, this must seem like a twist in the plot they could never have foreseen. They have followed the narrative of atttractive young ‘common’ girl falls in love with dashing Prince at uni, gets married, produces babies, appears to be serene and happy and totally at ease with her new role ie ideal future Queen material and now this? WTF.

To her credit, Kate has followed the script exceedingly well – she is a consummate actress. from the very beginning.

‘Attractive young ‘common’ girl falls in love with dashing Prince at uni’. This gives the impression that the relationship between the two was organic and ‘normal’.

Not so. There was much manipulation involved.

Put simply no senior Royal meets a future partner unless it is staged and planned.

The late Queen didn’t meet Phillip on the world’s first dating app. Their first ‘date’ was organised by Lord Louis Mountbatten, who just happened to be related to both and whose matching of a teenage girl with a young man a few years older would better be described as ‘grooming’ in any other story than the Royal fairytale.

Did Charles stumble through the rest of the female – and some of the male – population and then, per chance, find Diana in the last chance of an heir saloon?

No. Their ‘union’ would have been long part of the script which would have already included not only her future death in a ‘car accident’ but even the exact pillar in the tunnel her car crashed into.

The Black Magicians revel in detail. ‘Mistakes’ don’t happen. People and other events get in the way sometimes – but they can easily be disposed of.

Even Harry will have been scripted to meet Meghan Markle.

One for the relative ‘normies’ here. For even many of them realise that Harry isn’t the offspring of Charles and therefore can follow the story of ‘illegitimate son throws off the shackles of his family (in this case, the Royal ‘firm’) and rants and rages against it for ever more. Amen. And so it has been. He even titled his autobiography Spare to labour the point.

Kate was and is no ‘commoner’ Her mother Carole is a Goldsmith, an extremely aristocratic family and the same one that sired Diana ( biolpgically not a Spencer). And what name has appeared in the public eye at exactly the same time as this mystery play is being oonducted but Goldsmith, via uncle Gary on Big Brother. All coincidence of course, the sort of script only those truly in the now would write.

Her Wikipedia includes: ‘By the early 20th century, the Middleton family had married into British aristocracy and benefited financially from trust funds which they had established over a century ago’.

It would have been indiscreet to add Michael, Kate’s Dad, used to go out hunting with Phillip. As the usual venue was Soho, you can guess the nature of their prey.

So, no, fresh young innocent Kate didn’t meet William by accident.

The Crown, not a literal replayer of history but generally well researched, has it that the Middleton (Goldsmith) family even delayed her entry into university so she could go to the same place (Edinburgh) as William.

It was, you see, written in the script – meant to be, no accident.

And would you believe it they ended up in the same student accommodation.

Come the time when William was about to be given the order from above that he needed to marry and produce children – the usual mission of the heir to the throne – there thrust in front of his eyes, scantily clad at a student function was Kate. And the rest was history. Written, naturally, in advance.

William reportedly had a choice of around three women on the go at the same time. It wasn’t so much a case of ‘waitie Katie’ as His Highness, like Charles, did all he could to delay the inevitable for as long as possible.

And so to the children.

A wily friend remarked to me that Kate looked remarkably similar both prior the birth of Prince George and afterwards.

Funny that. Funny that until the birth of Charles all Royal births had to be officially witnessed by the Home Office to ensure they were legitimate.

Something slipped through the carefully guarded Royal nest here. Remember the tragic case of Indian nurse of Jacintha Saldanha, who subsequently committed suicide ?

She fell for a prank telephone call supposedly from The Queen amd Charles enquiring about Kate’s health. Odd that an enquiry about Kate’s health should be shrouded in such mystery. Ring any 2024 bells?

Whatever she told her interrogators, who were actually from an Australian radio station, was clearly uncomfortable. Did she kill herself or was she removed? Perhaps she’d entered the stage as an unsolicited ‘extra’.

So now we have another Kate health mystery and, lo and behold, another suspicious death.

Thomas Kingston, former boyfriend of Pippa Middleton, Kate’s sister, and long term ‘friend’ of Kate, reportedly has committed suicide. Totally out of the blue, went home one day and shot himself., It happens in high circles, you know.

But does his death relate to the current drama in much the same way as the tragic nurse did to the Royal birth back in 2012?

We don’t know yet and it’s foolish to speculate.

Kate may appear to the public looking fit and well tomorrow. She may not.

But, whatever happens in front of your eyes and in your newspapers and on your TV screens, is unlikely to be the full and real story.

It rarely is when it comes to The Royals – smoke and mirrors plc.
