 "Rose Hanbury response to rumours on Prince William cheating on Kate Middleton with her")
As per reports, the rumour around Rose Hanbury’s affair with Prince William started amid Kate Middleton’s surgery recovery. Business Insider reached out to all parties involved with the affair scandal. While Kensington Palace “declined to comment,” Hanbury said through her lawyers that “the rumours are completely false.” This marks the first time that Hanbury has publicly said something about the affair ever since the rumors emerged.
According to report published in Stylecaster, in a now-deleted article, The Sun reported that Kate Middleton had asked Prince William to have Hanbury “phased” out from their inner circle of friends. Prince William’s role in all of it was simply a husband trying to get his wife to get along with a neighbour. ( Rose and her husband, David, live in a neighbouring estate to The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s country manor, Amner Hall).
Daily Mail reported that the falling out was indeed false and both parties “considered legal action.” Though they chose not to go forward with it since “none of the reports have been able to offer any evidence about what the so-called dispute is about, they have chosen to ignore it.”
Stylecaster report further says that a family source also told the outlet that “these hurtful rumours of a fallout are simply false.” But can all these put all rumours on royal infidelity to rest?
How did this Rose Hanbury and Prince William rumour start?
Rumours started spreading like wild fire when the Princess of Wales uploaded a picture for Mother’s Day. The photo marked Kate Middleton‘s first photo since her abdominal surgery in January 2024. It features Kate in the middle while hugging and embracing her three kids, Prince George, Prince Louis, and Princess Charlotte. “Thank you for your kind wishes and continued support over the last two months,” Kate Middleton wrote in the caption. “Wishing everyone a Happy Mother’s Day. C”
Stephen Colbert dedicated an entire segment of his late night chat show to Prince William’s alleged affair with Lady Rose Hanbury amid the ongoing royal family drama. According to reports, Rose Hanbury is a key figure in Middleton and Prince William’s inner circle, Sarah Rose Cholmondeley, Marchioness of Cholmondeley, is a former model and was once a researcher for an MP.
This segment of Stephen Colbert comes after the mysterious ‘disappearance’ of Prince William’s wife, Kate Middleton – the Princess of Wales has not been seen in public since December 25, 2023. Although Kensington Palace shared a statement saying Kate is recovering from a planned abdominal surgery and will resume official duties after Easter, it has only served to inflame rumours that all is not right within the British royal family.
