Kate Middleton's Viral Video Raises Doubts Among Netizens - Here's What They Are Saying

TMZ has obtained a new video purportedly showing Kate Middleton strolling alongside Prince William. This footage corroborates earlier reports of Kate's visit to a local farm, which initially stirred speculation due to the absence of photographs. Despite this confirmation, doubts linger among some social media users regarding the woman's identity in the video.

The royal couple was spotted visiting a business located approximately a mile from their residence in Windsor, namely the Windsor Farm Shop. Onlookers who caught a glimpse of Kate during the outing described her demeanour as "happy, relaxed, and healthy." Notably, their three children were not accompanying them on this particular excursion.

Andy Cohen, among others, expressed scepticism about the woman's identity in the video. In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Cohen wrote, "That ain't Kate...."

Kate Middleton's Viral Video: Doubts Raised Over Authenticity

This alleged sighting marks the first appearance after concerns arose over Kate's absence from the public eye and the controversy surrounding the "edited" Mother's Day photo. Recently, she underwent planned abdominal surgery. Amidst the photo row, friends of the Princess of Wales told the U.K. Sunday Times that she is "devastated" by the furor and is now considering revealing more details.

When Kate's surgery was announced by the palace in January, it was stated that she hoped personal information related to her health would remain private. "It's not that they (Kate and William) didn't think there would be lots of speculation and interest, but they had confidence that people would give them the space they asked for, which they did for about a month," a friend said at the time.

Now, after Kate's reported sighting at Windsor Farm, questions have been raised about the authenticity of the video. In the comment section of the video shared by Pop Base, users expressed doubts. One user wrote, "i'm not into conspiracy theories but that does NOT look like Kate..." "THAT IS NOT HER," one user said, while another wrote, "That isn't her. Higher cheek bones, different smile, different walk, slimmer build. Body double."

"not interested in Royal family but this is not her," one user said, while another wrote, "As if she's just walking around in public like this but can't do a quick interview or proof of life video. If you think this is her, you're in denial." "I'm really not that bothered but that surely isn't her, looks completely different ??" one said. Another wrote, "this video is edited or they found a body double of KATE cos there's no way this is her."
