While Kate’s immediate family members have not commented on the photo controversy, her maternal uncle Gary Goldsmith, who recently appeared on Celebrity Big Brother UK, shared his thoughts about it last week.
“When it came out I said there’s not a chance in hell that Catherine would have photoshopped that herself,” he said on GB News’ Talking Pints with Nigel Farage March 14. “And then she says she did. My inside track absolutely went sideways there.”
Kensington Palace had said in their announcement about Kate’s surgery that she was not expected to return to public duties until after the March 31 Easter holiday, which her rep reiterated Feb. 29. In his interview, Gary defended the Palace, adding they have been “very clear and transparent” about the timeline of his niece’s return. He also reiterated his past comments about her support system.
“I think she’s got the best support infrastructure on the planet,” he added, “and she’s got the best people looking after her.”
