Kate Middleton, Prince William 'Going Through Hell' Amid Cancer Battle, Divorce Rumors: Report
Prince William and Kate Middleton's go-to designer and pal shared a rare update about the royal couple.
Amaia Arrieta, who usually dresses the Prince and Princess of Wales' three kids -- Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6 -- weighed in on how the future king and queen were doing amid Middleton's cancer battle and the rumors about their marriage.
"I'm heartbroken at the moment, I think they are going through hell, I hope they will be back. It's really personal," Arrieta told The Telegraph.
The statement received mixed responses from netizens. Some wondered if they were divorcing, but many also didn't believe Arrieta's claim and instead questioned how close she was to them to give such a statement. A number also said it was "fake news" because Prince William and Middleton's real friends would not speak to any magazine or outlet about the royal couple.
"The article says they are going through hell and it's personal. What does that mean? Personal? Like it's not the cancer but something else? She doesn't have to share her personal medical records, but is she still in recovery or treatment or is it marriage hell? Who knows?" one commented.
A second user wrote, "Oop, wonder if a divorce is in the near future."
"Just clickbait, just because the Royal children wear the garments you made, you don't know them! Stop it!" a different commenter opined.
"Um No. 1. This woman doesn't know Catherine. 2. She just lost all royal collaboration! What a fruit," a fourth person said.
"Shamelessly fake. Americans don't get it that no friend of this royal couple would talk to a magazine. They have class!" one critic wrote. Another added, "The Wales friends are discreet people. They never spill the beans. So this must be the Harkles daily paid PR in their hometown the USA!!"
