She, the Princess of Wales, went missing following a surgery at the beginning of the year. The most prevalent claim is that there was a complication with the surgery and may be in a coma or worse.
The idea is that telltale signs of the photo being altered would imply the family is hiding her condition and released a fake photo to buy time
The thing I don’t get is why hide it at all. “She’s recovering. That’s all you get to know.” Is going to attract the same attention as trying to hide it, while telling sane people to fuck off.
Unless they offed her. But uh, we won’t go there.
Well this would be another outspoken woman that was not traditionally married that died in suspicious circumstances within two generations. To say it wouldn't look suspicious would be a lie.
I would expect that, if they really wanted to assassinate her… they’d have found something less interesting. Like maybe something that gives her cancer or something.
