Double or artificial intelligence: crazy theories are being built online after a video of Kate Middleton, where she looks "happy and healthy"

Kate Middleton has finally been spotted out and about after her mysterious disappearance following abdominal surgery, which has sparked some conspiracy theories online. The video captured the "happy and healthy" Princess of Wales and her husband Prince William leaving a farm shop, but it did not put an end to the frenzied rumors of the royal family's supporters but only spawned new ones. Some skeptics believe that the video could have been generated by artificial intelligence, while others believe that the footage showed Catherine's double or a completely different woman.

One way or another, fans continue to build loud theories, and the crown's reputation takes a serious hit. Some people believe that William cheated on Kate, and the royal couple is now in the process of divorce, while others are worried about the 42-year-old princess's serious health problems. There are many more assumptions, but now let's talk about the latest video in which Middleton finally appeared. Or is it not her? The ambiguous opinions of Internet users were collected by journalists from the Daily Mail.

So, in the same video, we see Kate Middleton in a sporty look - leggings, a sweatshirt and sneakers - confidently walking beside her husband. They are both carrying overflowing bags, as they had shopped the day before at a farm shop founded by Prince Philip, located a mile from their home, Adelaide Cottage in Windsor.

Witnesses said that Katherine looked "incredibly happy and healthy".

Obviously, the royal family hoped that the video would help to set the record straight and calm the fans of various crazy theories. But the opposite happened. Internet users speculate that the video is "fake."

"It's a completely different person," "It's not Katherine, it's her double," "Are you serious? Did you expect us to believe that this is Kate?", "Look closely at the image and you will realize that this is not Kate, she has completely different cheekbones and her whole face", "Wait, who the hell is that with Prince William? Are you all thinking what I'm thinking?", "I've seen clearer footage of UFOs," commenters write.

One of the users analyzed the video in detail and rightly noticed that Kate is carrying a heavy shopping bag after abdominal surgery - "that's weird."

"It's not her. Higher cheekbones, different eyes, different smile, different gait, slimmer physique. Carrying a heavy bag after abdominal surgery? It's strange. A double," wrote an attentive viewer.

Another commenter also suggested: "The image is generated by artificial intelligence, and not even a very good one. This cover-up is getting stranger and stranger, and equally disturbing."

However, to be fair, there were many fans of the royal family who believed the footage and called on skeptics to "calm their imaginations."

Meanwhile, Kensington Palace has not commented on the video.

It is worth noting that before that, Katherine had allegedly been spotted in public in a car, but rumors later spread that it might not be her, but her sister.

As a reminder, on January 16, Kate Middleton was hospitalized for abdominal surgery. Representatives of Kensington Palace said at the time that the 42-year-old Princess of Wales would stay in the hospital for about two weeks, after which she would not appear in public until Easter. The mysterious illness sparked many rumors among fans of the British royal family, but the circumstances became even more strange after a photo of Katherine with her children was published on Mother's Day.

Journalists found out that the photo was "fake." They even conducted an investigation and published the image's metadata, which proved that the photo was photoshopped. However, the most interesting thing is that after removing the badly edited frame, the palace refused to publish the original photo, because, presumably, it simply does not exist.

The situation has led to increased speculation and conspiracy theories about Kate's whereabouts. One of them is the betrayal of Prince William. Adherents of this theory believe that the future king is allegedly having an affair with his "country mistress" Rose Hanbury again.

This theory was also reinforced by the fact that in the scandalous "edited" photo, Katherine was without a wedding ring, although she had never taken it off before.

Although Middleton eventually apologized for the "confusion" with the photo, the crown's reputation was badly damaged, and the number of rumors and theories only continued to grow rapidly.

As OBOZ.UA previously reported, fans of the royal family have discovered another possible sign of editing in a recent photo of the Welsh couple. The picture shows Prince William and Kate Middleton leaving Windsor Castle. However, the bricks behind the car do not match the color of the bricks seen through the car window.
