these 5 curious details you didn't pay attention to

To announce her cancer, the nature of which we do not know, Kate Middleton chose to make a video which she made public. It was sitting outside on a very dignified bench in jeans and sailor tops at Windsor Castle that she chose to make her statement. She began by confiding: “In January I had a major abdominal operation in London. At the time, it was thought that my condition was not cancerous,” before revealing: “However, tests carried out after the operation revealed the presence of cancer.” “It was of course a huge shock”she then said.

The princess has already started the preventive chemotherapy that was recommended to her by doctors. “I am now in the early stages of this treatment”, she explained. However, Prince William's wife remains positive despite the situation and said: “I am doing well, and getting stronger every day by focusing on the things that will help me heal.” Since this announcement, the video has been viewed millions of times. On X alone, it has been viewed 102 million times. Internet users and experts have also noticed several notable details.

Kate Middleton references Diana in video

At the end of the video, Kate Middleton said: “We need time, space and privacy while I continue my treatment.” Words that echo to Lady Diana's speech in 1993 for the charity Headway. She asked: “I hope you can find it in your heart to understand me and give me the time and space I have lacked in recent years”stating that she wanted “lead a more private life”.

So, if Kate Middleton chose to make a video to announce her cancer, she wants to keep several things to herself. In fact, she does not intend to reveal the type of cancer she has or the stage. “The princess has the right to medical confidentiality, like all of us”, Kensington Palace had specified. Even Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, with whom the Prince and Princess of Wales are on bad terms, mentioned the fact that Kate Middleton needs privacy: “We wish Kate and her family health and recovery, and hope they can do so privately and peacefully.”

Flowers not chosen at random in Kate Middleton's video

In the video published on Friday March 22, Kate Middleton is installed on a bench in front of a field of flowers… These were not chosen at random. These are daffodils, which bloom between February and April and thus announce the arrival of sunny days. But that's not all: these flowers are also those that represent the fight against cancer. It is also the daffodil which represents the national mobilization campaign against cancer created by the Curie Institute “A daffodil against cancer”.

This campaign takes place in March with the arrival of spring in France. There are similar campaigns in the whole world at the same time as that of the Canadian Cancer Society. If spring is therefore a key period in the fight against this disease because this season is synonymous with hope, the daffodil is a symbol that remains all year round. Just like the red ribbon which symbolizes the fight against AIDS, the yellow flower shows commitment to the fight against cancer. For example, on March 19, 2022, during the football match between France and England, the Blues had a daffodil flocked on their jerseys.

A symbolic tree in Kate Middleton's video

In addition to the many daffodils present in the background of the video of Charlotte's mother, George and Louis, we can see several trees which also have symbolism: flowering cherry trees. Indeed, they symbolize life which is beautiful but also very short because they only flower for a very short time. It is the symbol of time passing and the fact that we must enjoy life.

Another meaning: success. In Japanese culture it is a true symbol of hope and renewal. These flowers bring luck and are often offered as a good luck charm during a test. There is even a Japanese tradition of writing a wish and then placing it on the flowering tree to make it come true. So, the cherry blossoms were surely not chosen at random by the royal family in this video which announces Kate Middleton's cancer.

Kate Middleton's engagement ring at the heart of a controversy

On the video, Kate Middleton wears her engagement ring, the one that belonged to Lady Diana. It is particularly highlighted since the princess has her hands placed on her knees. This is perhaps a way to put an end to rumors of separation with Prince William, who is a great support for his partner. But, this is not why the presence of the ring has caused a lot of discussion among Internet users. In fact, they noticed that she disappeared at 1 minute 19 of the video, when the princess moves her hand.

However, there could be several explanations for this. The first being that it is a simple illusion that we have due to video compression broadcast on social networks like X. This reduces the quality of the video and causes certain changes, blurring several details. If we watch the video available on Youtube, the ring is still present. Another possible reason: the princess would have turned her jewel inwards, as one can do when one is nervous.

The setting of Kate Middleton's video disturbs Internet users

In addition to the disappearance of Kate Middleton's ring, other details caught Internet users' attention in the video. Indeed, for many of them, the video would have been created by artificial intelligence. Many Internet users claimed that the setting did not look real. The background is too blurry according to them and they don't find it normal that the trees, grass and flowers don't move.

Another detail pointed out: the stripes of Kate Middleton's sweater which would be reflected on the bench. “The stripes on Kate Middleton's sweater cast their own shadow on the bench… The frozen, blurry background is more than suspicious too. The video is at least partially if not completely AI-generated”we were able to read on . The hashtag #KateGate continues to grow despite all the efforts of the English family to stop the slander.
