The delicate situation of the Princess of Wales has not only generated a communication crisis at Buckingham Palace or a global scandal but also a very lucrative business for some. And the latest images of Kate Middletonwalking next to William of England by a local farm located on the grounds of Windsor, have achieved a stratospheric value on the market: 500,000 pounds, or what is the same, almost 600,000 euros.
This is according to Helen Wade, correspondent for the BBC and expert on the Royal Family: “I understand that they have paid the person who made the video of the princes half a million pounds. It is the informative value of that image.” The journalist also sheds a little light on the problems in Kensington Palace’s communication: “What happens is that there is conflict between the press team and the princes of Wales themselves. “They don’t agree on what to tell, the princes go it alone and don’t consult with their team, who finds things once they’re done.”
The famous video of the princess walking was intended to silence the rumors but had the opposite effect. There were many who doubted that the woman in the images was really Kate Middleton and even the Royal House has had to confirm, through the BBC, the veracity of the images. Also Heidi Agan, the princess’s ‘official double’, who has received thousands of messages in the last few hours: “It’s not me, it’s really Kate.”
A medical hack and investigation
After the commotion over the latest ‘sighting’ of Kate Middleton and the circumstances in which it took place (“It was a completely agreed-upon staging”), one last piece of news has shaken Kensington Palace: a member of the London Clinic staff, The hospital where William of England’s wife was operated on, would have tried to access the patient’s medical reports without consent.
Senior officials at the center have already identified one person (although they do not rule out that there may be more involved) and have initiated an investigation. They also reported what happened to the palace, which responded evasively when asked about the alleged crime: “It’s a hospital matter.”
