I am the Wizard Master
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?

Her shape-shifting powers are probably just on the fritz because of the surgery, so she has to lay low.

What is Kate getting surgery for though? Is there a surgical procedure that makes you no longer British? I'd probably get that, if I were born British.
