Move over #KateGate, there’s a new drama brewing in the British Royal Family! This time, it involves a legal battle and a very unhappy Marchioness.
Rose Hanbury, Marchioness of Cholmondeley, is taking matters into her own hands. Why the legal action? To silence rumors of an affair with Prince William, of course!
Colbert Fuels the Fire: Apparently, a joke on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert reignited speculation about the alleged affair, which originally surfaced in 2019. In his monologue, Colbert linked the rumors to the recent mystery surrounding Kate Middleton’s absence from public life. Not cool, Colbert!
Enough is Enough: Hanbury’s lawyers have had it with the gossip. They sent a legal notice to CBS, demanding a retraction of the “false allegation.” Similar notices were sent to other media outlets. The message is clear: drop the rumors or face legal consequences!
Recap of the Royal Rumormill: For those unfamiliar with this ongoing saga, here’s a quick recap:
- 2019: Tabloids go wild with claims of an affair between William and Hanbury.
- Radio Silence: The Royal Family ignores the rumors.
- March 2024: Kate Middleton’s health situation sparks renewed speculation about William’s fidelity (seriously?!).
- Colbert Adds Fuel to the Fire: His late-night talk show joke throws gasoline on the rumor fire.
- Hanbury Takes Action: Legal notices fly, demanding an end to the baseless accusations.
Standing by Her Man: It’s important to note that Hanbury is married to David Rocksavage, a close friend of Prince William. Both couples have denied the affair allegations.
Impact on Kate: A source close to Kate revealed she finds the rumors “hurtful” and fears her children will one day stumble upon them online.
