I was in high school when it happened and I remember some really tasteless jokes going around at the time.

"Hey, remember that Elton John song about Diana? Candle in the Wind? He made a new one for Mother Teresa! It's called 'Sandals in the Bin'!"

Later in life I realised that wasn't tasteless at all, Mother T was actually a horrible monster.

Diana actually did some good things, like getting landmines banned. One of the more likely conspiracy theories about Dianas death is that british arms manufacturers wanted rid of her.

Why won't the Royal House of Windsor publish a picture of Kate? Is she dead? Did they kill her?

Where does that vowel come from?

My theory is that an even worse story is about to come out but can be lost in the media circus cause it ain't a sensational topic. Just boring stuff like bribing officials, paying for assassinations of heads of state who were seen as turning red, that sort of thing. Instead of talking about that and getting public pressure on them there's this stupid silly smelly thing.

Have you guys heard about this?

Apparently until this week Kate Middleton (The Princess of Wales) hasn't been photographed publicly since Christmas Day. She was apparently in the hospital for an abdominal surgery and Kensington Palace said she wasn’t going to be doing any public appearances until Easter.

A few weeks ago, people started noticing that there had absolutely no press coverage of her, which is out of the ordinary for her. She was photographed almost immediately after giving birth before, and the British press is not known for being restrained in their coverage of her, so absolute silence was strange.

This was put in comparison to the British press’s treatment of Meghan Markle, as it showed that the media could be controlled and purposefully wasn’t in her case.

After speculation and commentary online increased over the last few weeks, the Palace’s silence became more noticeable. They put out a statement saying they had said she was fine and that they had no plans on updating the press on her status.

Today, in honor of UK Mother’s Day, Kensington Palace released a picture of her and her three kids, taken by William. People started to pick apart the pictures and noticed some weird photoshop errors (like poorly blended sleeve cuffs).

The the AP and other news agencies posted a kill notification, basically saying that the photo had been manipulated by the source (i.e. Kensington Palace) - this has added fuel to the flame and sparked heated discussion about the secrecy of Kate's actual whereabouts.

What are your guys thoughts?
