DCI Frank Burnside 3,870 Posted March 1 On 27/02/2024 at 18:07, Thatcher said: Tom Kingston, the husband of Lady Gabriella Kingston, has died aged 45. I suspect this is the reason for the Prince of Wales’ previous withdrawal - they were close and she represented him at King Constantine’s funeral.

Not an accident, he'd locked himself in. He worked in finance so I'm guessing the answer might lie there. Dodgy dealings about to be exposed? Very sad, whatever the reason. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There has been nothing to suggest that that will be her first engagement. They have put 2 and 2 together and made 5. With one of the 2s being questionable anyway. And I wish people like Piers Morgan would stop saying that our taxes pay for the Royals. They don't, and I'm sure he's not so ill-informed as to think that.. There is so much deliberate misinformation about this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
openviews 314 Posted March 5 Linking the recent stories together maybe Kate was having an affair with Thomas Kingston which came to light because she became pregnant and needed to have an abortion (abdominal procedure). Maybe the recovery time is less for the procedure and more for her to get her head back together. Did Thomas end his life or was he killed for knocking up the future Queen? 1 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Immortal 632 Posted March 6 17 hours ago, Comped said: This will only make myself and many others wonder why the hell they haven't said what's wrong with her unless it's quite serious... The plausible theory that I have, which couple folks I know in the medical field feel the same way, is that she had an abdominal hysterectomy with complications. All 3 of Kate's pregnancies had health complications (hyperemesis) and the doctors must have recommended getting a hysterectomy done. The average hospital stay for that is about a 4 days to a week, complications from the surgery (which again to me is very possible seeing her pregnancy related health record) makes a lot of sense for the 2 week hospitalization. It also explains to me why everybody has been so quiet about it and why the term "planned abdominal surgery" has been used because let's be honest the royal family would definitely not want to get into the details of a uterus being taken out, and neither would most people. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't they say from the outset it would be a couple of weeks in hospital? You might be right, but having seen a friend go through a bowel resection to treat ulcerative colitis, I still think it may be a digestive issue as that ticked all the boxes.

An Fear Beag 1,512 Posted March 6 4 hours ago, The Immortal said: All 3 of Kate's pregnancies had health complications (hyperemesis) and the doctors must have recommended getting a hysterectomy done. I have no idea what her medical issues are, and care even less. I also have no idea what issues she had with her pregnancies. It may well be that she has had a hysterectomy for any one of a number of different reasons. If so, best of luck to her, I hope everything works out well. However, the idea that a hysterectomy would be performed because of hyperemesis in a previous pregnancy, is bollocks. Hyperemesis in pregnancy is relatively easily treated. Some IV fluids +/- anti-emetics will usually do the trick. It is also easily prevented- don't get pregnant! There are a lot of different ways of doing that, none of which involve a hysterectomy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BonScott 122 Posted March 6 Her issues are a lot more serious than the Palace letting on, that is crystal clear, first it was no engagements till after easter and now they pouring cold water over her being available for the event in June the MOD said she attending, the public appearance timeline is being pushed further and further back She may well not die this year but a hysterectomy etc is for the birds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sod's Law 442 Posted March 6 The planned operation and the long recuperation period (along with scheduled events still being cancelled) is making me think 'abdominal tumour' rather than simple hysterectomy. She clearly needs her health to be kept a close eye on for the foreseeable future for whatever reason. It seems to be affecting her much worse than the King's cancer is affecting him.

Anyone who has had abdominal surgery will tell you that it entails a long recovery period. I wouldn't know about it but for the friend I mentioned, and because of that I learned that there are all sorts of things that can go wrong with the intestines and digestive processes. Things that can be fixed, but take a long time to heal. So yes, it's serious in that it's complex, painful and lengthy, but routine and not life-threatening (apart from ANY surgery being life-threatening).. I won't be surprised if there's a follow-up procedure further on down the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
